Lmao. Thanks man I appreciate it. Yep sucks had a C10 crew back in K Town and move and don't know anyone around here with a C10. Well intake that back 1 guy I work with has a C10 grave yard heaven with all kinds of good parts but he won't let anything go. Drives me crazy. Next weekend I am planning on going to the All Truck Nationals in Severville let's meet up.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

The Slosh Tubz look great. Are you planning on doing the filler panels too? They really clean things up under the hood.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Morning stranger lol. Well I have been on Mike butt about filler panels for my truck. He is in search for a 73-80 fender so he can make some. So I sit back and wait on him. And yes they do want it up nicely.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Thats right, forgot he was looking for 73-80 fenders to use for mock up. I will be needing a set myself for my next project.

Had a great time this weekend at the All Truck Nationals in Severville TN. Meet some great C10 family memebers.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Man that's so clean!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Thanks man. I appreciate it. Still not finished lol. Made a few more changes Got the Mcgaughys front and rear big brake kit got the ridetech HQ shocks o and I c notched it finally!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

So with going to the Mcgaughy​s rear big brake kit the as flanges need to be turned down so I went ahead and bought new axles from Moser Engineering.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

No way! I thought that would never happen. Ha ha

Hope you have better luck with your Moser axles than I did

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

I should have better luck lol. What issues did you have?

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Mcgaughys Front Big Brake kit

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Bad axle when I did my 6 lug conversion on my 97 Sierra.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Man **** happens sometimes.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Frustrated me so much after jacking with it for 2 months and 3 sets of rear brakes that I gave up and put the 5 lug axles back in.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Ive never been into green but damn that is a sweet ride!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

You know I would have flipped my lid lol. Well fingers crossed I have no issues.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Thanks I appreciate it!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Houston we have a problem lol.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

A ground level pic for you all. And a little update the mild drop tubz won't work with a 8.5" drop up front. They rub on the blower motor. So testing with a 6.5 front drop thy work no issues next test will be with a 7.5" drop. Also after having to raise it well my ridetech shocks didn't fit anymore. So I had to order the HQ shocks for the height I needed well I like things that match so I had to order the rears. Man o man never ending lol. I have relayed this info to Mike so he can tell people in the future.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

I hope you like the HQs. Let us know if you need anything else!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Thanks John appreciate it. Well if they are as good as the RQ no worries lol. Know I can tune fine tune my shocks to my driving win win!!

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

How are you getting these extreme static drops?
I thought a 3" spring and a 3" drop spindle was the most you could do, and still be able to align the front end?

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Using 4" coils and cutting coils. Plus PB control arms 1" narrow and 1" forward and 22" wheels with the correct backspacing. It can be done if you just try it. As you can see in my pics I post. Honestly this all started with a buddy who said I couldn't do it lol. I align it on a hunter alignment machine we have here at work set at factory specs. I did have to machine some shim blocks plus add shims so I could get it aligned.

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

How far is your crossmember and a-arms from the ground with a 8.5" front drop?
I remember banging a-arms on everything with a 6" front drop,...

Re: 1976 Square "Simple Green"
 

Last time I checked if I remember correctly almost 3" from the ground. And I have not banged anything my PB arms look as good as the day I installed them.
