Re: 70cst 4wd conversion
Little update tonight. This week I got all of my tools I ordered in. Went harbor freight with most of them, but also bought 2 snap on hammers. I have always loved the snap on dead blow ball peen hammers. Also bought a chrome 4wd shifter that came with a bolt.
On to tonight.... I was just going to grind/sand off all the grime and surface rust and rattle can it, but I felt the need to call the local sandblaster and he quoted me $100-150 for a rolling frame. I figured I would be mad at myself if I didn't go ahead and do it for that price. So as soon as I find a trailer it is heading down there. So anyway finally on to tonight, I switched out my front differentials. Wasn't too bad with no engine or anything in there. The bolts came out surprisingly easy.
Also, a couple of questions (2nd post) is the steering stabilizer bar supposed to be that close to the leaf spring?
Has anyone had any trouble with clearance issues on the disc brake calipers clearing a 15 inch wheel? I think the axle is from a 73, thats what the date stamped on the gear is.
