Re: 67 long box
Just found out the rear axles have bad bearing surfaces after all that work not sure what way to go. I have 5 lug front and now have to buy new axles or rear end. Any suggestions?
|
Re: 67 long box
Set of new axles and bearings will probably run about $300. Could always see what a local shop would charge to rebuild the whole thing and they might have a used set of good axles that will fit. I would probably work with what I had versus buying another rear end and finding the same problems.

Just checked ECE and without delivery I'm up $515.00 with tax and exchange rate. Canada sucks for performance parts.

Moser has very good prices on 5x5 conversion axles for the narrow 1965-69 rear end, $260 USD.
http://www.moserengineering.com/axle...spline-62.html Also $260 for the 1970-81 5x5 stock axles. http://www.moserengineering.com/axle...spline-30.html |

Metaldoc with your fabrication skills you could make a killing in the custom car scene you should offer up your services locally and make some money off of your talent.

de rusted the top and back so it's ready for flat/satin mix clear coat. The inside is in primer now and ready for paint, floor is getting stone guard sprayed on it both sides. I'll finish the cab corners and rockers once mounted on the frame. I had a few spots to clean up after metal work was done on the fire wall. It's coming out looking nice.

Found out my fire alarm expired 2009 I guess I could replace it. Did some work on the cab corners and being the only body work on the outside it didn't need to be on the frame. It was so much easy this way too. I also finished the body prep on the kick panels. Some blue, clear, and black paint should be just like 1967 on the inside and now on the out side. Oh and that's Lola my watch dog, she came to inspect again.

seam sealer done on the drip edge. looks easy and not too bad with thinner instead of spit on my finger. Then washed it with a brush and thinners to smooth out. Brushing it made it blend better.

Re: 67 long box
That looks good. I got a good chuckle on the fire alarm!

It seems I'm done seaming after three tubes of seam sealer. Had left over white from drip guard and used it too. Now bed spray under the floor to sound deadened it and make it impervious to the rain and road crap.
