Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
 

Got the narrowed axle back and mocked up with the trailing arms, bag mounts, and watts link started. Stuck a wheel up to check and it's perfect.

Wow

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
 

It's looks like it should be in an art museum!

Got my 2 piece driveline back and started mocking up angles.

Question for the porterbuilt or airbag guys. Do I weld on the lower bag mounts to be parallel with the upper mounts at full drop, ride height or full up? To me it makes the most sense to have them parallel at full drop since they'll only be 4" apart. Thoughts?

Awesome build man!

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
 

You should have a moderator move this to the "67-72 projects and builds" section. It'll get more exposure there, I almost missed it myself. This build deserves to be seen!

How do I contact them to move it??

Thanks!

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
 

Got the rear end back from powdercoat and the axle shop got the 4.10s in with the narrowed Moser axles and Moser diff cover. I was trying to keep it under wraps but I guess this let's the cat out of the bag that I'm doing the frame in white powdercoat. I know, I know, it'll never stay clean but every one does black and honestly black shows just as much dirt as white. So dare to be different, I think it looks so sick! With the trucks white roof to tie it in. $$$$

Nice touch. I think the white will look killer.

Re: "Old Olive" 1970 C10 porterbuilt build
