Tub Placement Page
Lowering The Tub Onto The Frame
There were a few things we had to get in order before putting the tub onto the frame
One was to make sure all was tightened up in the front suspension AND
install the gas pedal linkage that runs along the firewall, which is MUCH
easier at that time.
Also, having a chain hoist made it all that much easier and much more relaxing, if that's the word I should use.
