It looks like the front motor mount is. in the wrong position that front crossmember is backwards and it sticks out beyond the bumper brackets check it out guys your rebuild looks good I enjoyed doing this years ago too Thanks for great rebuild video Sam.
i cant remember exactly how many of each we needed, i would get a quote from a few local suppliers on grade 8 flange bolts and nuts i believe they are 1/2" bolts by and a mix of 2 1/2 and 2 3/4 bolts but ill check
The majority of the bolts are 5/8x1-3/4" and then 5/8x2-1/2". Factory they had some 2-1/4" and 2-3/4" but we cant get grade 8 flange head in 1/4 sizes over 2". Best option is to get a price from bolt suppliers but you will need to buy box qtys then. Which will mean you have a bunch left over for the next one 😉
its hard to find a shop in my area with a 30 ft brake, there is a local one with a 25 ft brake that makes cheap inserts but we eventually we gave up looking.
Wow huge amount of work gone in to this well done
Excited about this truck! Thanks for the update.
You're better than the manufacturer.

What is the cost to get new rails from PG?
Can’t say for sure as we had to pay import fees etc, however it’s definitely reasonable in our case all in with shipping and tax was under 10k usd
Couldn't you have gotten a local steel fab to bend those cheaper,
