Re: 72 K20 build thread, need good name
I haven't posted in a while but I've been picking away. Frame is fully painted.
Put the rear leaf springs in with polyurethan bushings and ORD's shackle kit. It is a beefy unit. Since I don't have a shackle flip, I essentially lowered the truck a half an inch, but with the new springs I probably came out even. If it is noticable I can just make up for it with some thin blocks.
They ended up giving me the wrong front leaf springs, so that stalled progress last weekend but one trip back and we fixed it. Also put ORD's front shackle kit in. Pretty impressive stuff they sell.
Now that they are all in, I'm cleaning up the D44 and 14FF in back. Once they are painted they'll go in and then it's time for the rear disc conversion and prepping for the drivetrain. I'm sick of making messes, so hopefully the clean building will start...
