86 front end for the 67 Ramp
 

The guy doing the swap is half way there. He has the old front end out. The dang rain here is not helping though. It's been raining for over a week now and no sign of letting up. I'm so sick of this wet stuff!:chevy:

That's gonna be cool. It's been raining in Cali too. Our rain is sporadic and light though.

The rain here is heavy and everything is full. I had to use the other lanes twice today because of flooding. Glad police where out helping with traffic.
I got the mail today and had several new parts.

I ordered the adjustable propoining valve for it. I also putting a later model master cylinder in it. :chevy:

I'll ask but don't think they are. ;)
Randy says he hopes to have it done by end of next week if the weather will cooperate.:chevy:

Went by and dropped off the brake line tubing to Randy for the brakes. He surprised me with the front end sitting under it. He had the holes lined up ready to drill. Going to order new sway bar bushing for it and have new rubber hoses alsol
Only thing we don't know yet is the steering link off the power steering gonna work are not.:chevy:

You do know that MC pictured in your post #4 is a quick take-up master intended to be used with low drag calipers.

So what are you saying?:lol:

Hoping he makes some progress on the ramp truck tomorrow. It's suppose to be nice the next few days so I hope he gets on it and finish it!:chevy:

Re: 86 front end for the 67 Ramp
 

Just got back from the shop. Front end is in. Went and got new rubber lines for the calipers. He said he should have it moving around by Friday. Also got new bushing for the sway bar.
I also swapped the master cylinder for a 71 C-20 one. :chevy:

Sounds like it's coming together....

Re: 86 front end for the 67 Ramp
 

Yes sir. He even said it looked like the pitman arm was gonna work with the 86 center link to. That's good news. I'm hoping he has it back far enough to see it moving on it's own power by Friday!:chevy:
