Hello once again,

before i go into major detail i justed wanted to thank all of you for your
help and info.

o.k,

The frame is stock not modified.
the doors are southern not rusted along with the cab, doors etc.
i installed front and rear axles from a 79 4x4 blazer on original frame and
suspention nothing should have changed the dimensions of the mounts.

i did notice that the front radiator rubbers are about 1/4" but i dont think
thats the problem because if i reduce that the bottom of the grill support
will be sitting on the frame rails.

with some of the info i got from all of you i think i will try loosening
everything off jack the cab slightly fitt the doors, hang the fenders and the
front clip and then shim as required.

does this seem like the thing to do!

thanks guys.
oletrucks is devoted to Chevy and GM trucks built between 1941 and 1959
