Yeah on a stock truck is still running DOD you need the vacuum pump for brakes. If you’re not running DOD the engine makes plenty of vacuum.

1948 panel wheeler. The end of an error.

Collecting parts with no real plan for the end.
I just know I'm not cool without an LS swap and tons.
The type 2 pump will run Hydro boost and Hydro assist, but Performance at idle is lackluster. A PSC pump made it much better on a Jeep we had with 40’s. Personally I don’t like the idea of running hydro brakes and steering. I like separate systems so all my eggs aren’t in one basket.
I have never had hydro boost on anything. Just seems all of the cool kids have it. If I can run without DOD and use engine vacuum for a vacuum brake booster I will. If @Desert_K5 is relocating his from below, I would buy his brackets from him.
That's the same engine in my Sierra, L86, very nice engine...you know, Edelbrock makes a bolt on high helix Eaton supercharger for that, talking 540 RWHP, likely about 700HP at the crank, with no other mods....(although it would be a better gain with long tubes)...just sayin'.... 
When I win the lottery, you can hook me up.
Panel motivation. Seen on FB.
I am going to try to set mine up a lot lower than that.
A thing followed me home today.
Patina seems to be a thing at my place lately.

The flex may be limiting off road
I give up, what is it?
Chassis table?
But look at all of that ground clearance.
See below.
Winner winner chicken dinner.
I am going to start with bare, new steel for the frame and everything built off of it.
This frame jig came up on FB MP for $300. The guy did not know what it was. Figured that was scap price for it. Not. He and his 70 year old dad bought a property, lock, stock and barrel. The previous owner built boat trailers. He is gone and the only daughter sold it all off once. One 4600sf block building, one 4000sf pole barn, semi sized paint booth and more metal racks than I have ever seen in one place. Welders, plasma cutters, lathes and mills. All of it for sale. I was a good boy and only left with the jig.
I have also had issues getting good trailers for food concession builds. A client just ordered an 8'x16' by 7'-6" inside with 2 doors. 10 to 12 weeks for delivery and $12k plus tax. So I might start building my own.
“So I might start building my own.”
Because you don’t have enough to do right? Take it easy Holmes...

I will add it to the build time. 6 months instead of 4. I also would not have to deal with making the purchased trailer work. I spent 40 hours extra on the last one because it was crap.
I get it, some of the stuff that gets built nowadays is a joke. I’m just giving ya a hard time. We built the trailer from scratch for my buddies Jeep camp trailer. Then you know it’s square and welded correctly.
You should start building the ‘48 frame on that table first. Because if you start building trailers on it, she’ll never get her chance.....

Wade I seen this rig in town a few miles away from our place. Had to stop and take a pic for you to see.
