So I remembered to check the floor at the seat mount areas, which of course lead to pulling the carpet to fix the floor. And I found this that I had hoped was only a little rust before.....
I am blaming @the_blaze since he found similar crap with plan B.
He jinxed me!!!
:haha:

Lol omg i feel better knowing im not the only one with a surprise hole
 
@mrk5 and @Bent77
No, it isn't headed to the crusher, even though I pondered the idea of using the spare '90 K5 that I have here. But the extra work and time isn't worth it.
So :flipoff13: :flipoff13:
And:flipoff11:


:haha::haha::haha:

But I will admit that I am getting more stressed about my timeline.
Had to help the boy figure out how to install new exhaust on his D-max today, after he did more complicated stuff on his own. :rotfl:

Polish your turd yet?
 
Not much for pics.
@500$k5 and my son helped me do some things Saturday. We made progress and found a couple of problems that would have given me a bunch of trouble later. The adapter for the TBI got warped, and I had an injector hang open, when we primed the fuel system.
And other insanity struck....

I have been using pieces of old mixer truck fenders, and then welding them in.
But I did use some flexseal after my son welded a piece in the original t-case shifter hole!
:pimp: :doah:

Still trying to remember that it is a trail truck, don't go too far! But I am learning.
 
So my son brought me the adapter that he made today. So now I have the 4 barrel to TBI adapter, and spacer all in one. The back got milled down to clear the fuel lines, with the longer pressure port adapter. He made a couple of templates to check fitment, then cut it on the water jet.
The machine shop milled it flat on both sides as well! I don't think that this one will warp!!
He is upset by the gouging in this side, but I am not! The piece he found was so close to the right width, the water jet blew sideways when he tried to trim it too closely. But I am SO pleased!
