Yesterday I ended up getting the engine and transmission bolted into the frame on some custom mounts I built. I had a little trial and error because I didn't measure correctly the first time so the cab was swung into place a couple times before I had it where I was happy.
I am going to mount the newer serpentine belt system from the 1998 6.5 on the 6.2 that I have bolted in place now. I can't find the fan clutch that is supposed to be on that 6.5 engine and I'm starting to wonder if I ever even had it. I'm not sure it will fit anyway but I'd like to know so I have options for fans. The engine is sitting pretty low in the frame and it looks like the fan may interfere with the radiator output.
This morning I pulled the cab back off and painted the front of the box and the rear of the cab.
I'm starting to wish I had bought desert tan instead of Marine Corps green. Maybe the next one will be tan.
