Title: Wheel House Picture?
Post by: 1955CJ-5 on March 18, 2013, 11:36:34 PM: Does someone happen to have a fairly close up picture of the area where the wheel house, front riser and bed floor all come together? I need to repair the wheel house on both sides but I don't know how they attach to the either the riser or the tool box.

Either side would be fine....both would be fantastic...

Thanks!

Randy

I post this so long as no one makes fun of my rusty tub... ï¿½:'(...sorry,,,I'm working on it...slowly.

The tub is currently laying on its side, hope the orientation isn't confusing. ï¿½

Top side.

How'd you get those text boxes in yellow like that?

I put the imported the pics into Power Point, then saved the presentation as Jpgs. its just a little technique I picked up when I spent too many of my Infantry years in Division and Corps staff where I was hardly fed or watered, kinda like a salt mine but you sit behind a computer.
