Looks bad ass! Getting my wheels and tires bolted on was a big deal too. Really lit a fire under my azz. Nice score on the tach cluster!!

Frame cut turned out great, rolling chassis looks awesome. Gotta love the vintecs too!

Got these ready for you if you still think you can use them. Later

just PM me your address and we'll see what postage runs.

Had to come check out the pics on my compooper instead of the phone, man that chassis looks great. Can you take some more pics for me to drool over? I was looking real close at the wheels and they do look exactly like my Budniks except I noticed BS has the old style caps, Budnik uses a new sleeker low profile cap. I have one of the old style Budnik caps that looks just like yours but my wheels have the new style like this pic. I wonder if BS has the new caps too. I am still curious if the same shop is making both wheels for BS and Budnik.

The bs caPs are nooo fun to get on or off. I was scared I was gonna drop the cap on the lip. They use a little rubber o ring and suction to the wheel.

It looks really nice, and I love those wheels! Mines been ready to roll out like that for a while but I have it blocked in with a parts truck. I'll get it out soon.

Keep up the progress.. Looking good.

I was searching to find an answer on steering stops used with modular spindles and found your build. What did you do for stops? Great work!

Steering stops?

The truck has no bump stops. The previous owner decided to take them out because he was trying to bag it

Re: 67c10 build
 
Yes steering stops. limits the amount that a wheel can turn. Prevents tires from rubbing on inner fenders. They were part of the bump stop bracket. Stock and old school drop spindles heve a bump that ran into that bump stop bracket. You will want something. I'll post a picture soon.

that wheel never goes out of style IMO. nice choice

67ctener 03-06-2013 06:23 PM

Re: 67c10 build
 
Yeah never Even thought about it. What about lock to lock on a box? Won't that stop the wheels

I just read up on it a little and it sounds like people go either way. Some cut them off just for more travel or because of bags. I'll run what I have and see how it works (those control arm shafts are a pain in the butt). Good poInt though

Thanks Hector, I liked them on everything, mild to wild rides they looked good on. Since I have no idea on the color yet I figured the vintecs would be a safe bet

Shaft replacement?

Re: 67c10 build
 
Just meant changing the control arm shafts into those control arms was a pain

Sorry if someone has already asked but what trailing arms are they?

67ctener 03-22-2013 01:16 AM

Re: 67c10 build
 
Early classic enterprises trailing arms and crossmember, you can buy either separate
