New Shop, any constrcutive critiism

So I'm getting ready to pull the trigger and build a new shop. Most likely 36'x60 but could push it to 40'X60'.

Here are some drawings, let the comments flow

Thanks

Dana 70 closed knuckle diagram

I'm in the process of installing my Helitool front disc brake set up. I do not have the service manual for my truck. 1973 W300. Does anyone have a diagram for the knuckle assembly?

Thanks

Tailgate chains

I'm looking for some original "rubber coated" tailgate chains. I have found a number of places that sell them with the plastic cover but none that are coated like original

Any ideas?

Thanks

headlights?

Now reassembling my 63 W300 and wondered if anyone has any headlight upgrade suggestions? Each side has a high/low bulb and a dedicated high beam bulb. Should I consider anything other then the stock set up?

Thanks

Re: Lifting the bed off!!!

Put my bed back on today. A little spoiled with the lift. I just backed the truck under the bed and set it down.

Re: Lifting the bed off!!!

I have a rolling gantry crane in my shop and lifted the bed off and drove the truck out. I set the bed on a rolling knack job box so I can push it around the shop. The 9 ft bed sure is big by itself!!
