Day 17 Project Iron Wolf Pt.2
Missing one hanger from this pile. Front left is still on the frame. Grinding wheel is now too short or small to get in and grind out weld. I have to find out if I need to relocate the bumpstops on the front. That is why they are still there. Rear right front spring hanger gone and body mount remaining. I think IHONLYNORTH has a newer version and may change them out. Aft left spring hanger gone.

Day 16 Project Iron Wolf Pt.2
Couple views of the V345. What a pain in the butt it was finding a engine stand for this little jewel. Even my third try was a nogo. I had to get a mounting bracket made to accomodate the width of the block.
Little by little I'm getting it cleaned up. As soon as I power wash it a few more times I will be removing the carb and intake manifold.Get that old grime off. and put a fresh coat of paint on. I will be changing out the cam, lifters, starter, alternator, intake and exhaust manifold with new stuff like ISKY cams, lifters, Hight output alternator, aluminum intake, Stans exhaust, and putting in a fuel injection system to make this baby really talk.

Day 16 Project Iron Wolf Pt.1
Worked all day to get axles off.
Big pile of Dana 44's.
Front view of my frame. I made a dolly for the frame so I can move it around the garage.
The new motor mount that I got from IHONLYNORTH.

Day 13 Project Iron Wolf continue
What a pain in the ass it was to get the lower pen out.
Lower pen out. It took me about two hours to get this little guy out. With upper and lower king pens out the knuckle came right off. The next step is to knock out the bearing retainers, get the king pen rebuild kit, clean up the knuckle, paint it, and rebuild it. Only thing left is to get the top top king pen off. Get the other side done. Remove the gears, finish cleaning up the axle, and get some paint on it.Posted by Iron Air Wolf at 4:59 PM 0 comments

Day 13 Project Iron Wolf
With the nut off and all bearing out this baby slipped right off.
Start tearing down the king pen and I should have the knuckle off.
It was nice to see I had 35 spine axles. I will be using these untill I break them.
