Great fab skills but I have one question. Why didn't you isolate your new support from the frame? I would think that would cause problems with fender alignment, or at least nasty vibrations in the front clip

I had the front fenders attached to the frame before without any ill effects, after I put a crossmember in at the front of the frame it wont move much.

Interesting, makes sense why you wouldn't worry about it since you've done it before.

Nice rig!

Just curious though; why did you go with the dodge radiator and intercooler? And why swap to a Dodge instrument panel?

I kept the big a$$ Ford radiator in mine and made custom coolant piping and it keeps the Cummins really cool...the fans hardly ever kick on going down the highway.
