Now that the dust has settled after SEMA, we're back to work on the ISIS 1955 Ford F100 panel truck. Before the show, we wired it with our ISIS Intelligent Multiplex system, replacing the wiring harness that was in it originally. We had great intentions of getting the chassis completed before the show, but that didn't happen.
Now, we're back to work. We spent the afternoon installing the Heidts 4-Link rear end, specifically designed for this truck. We fitted all of the suspension components and hung the Ford 8.8 inch rear end. We replaced the original 4-lug axles with 5-lug and put the wheels on to test fit everything. Here's what it looks like.
We still have to install the rear brakes plus re-do the seals and bearings on the rear-end. The original plan was to use a set of old Mustang 8.8 rear brakes, but I decided to go with the Wilwood Dynapro Lot-Profile Rear Parking Brake Kit. We'll have those parts when we get back from PRI.
From there, we need to finish the front-end and start running brake lines. Keep watching the blog for more updates.
