Re: Project: GOOBER, 1971 GMC

Picked up a new tire for a spare. Got it as a blemished tire for $300 from interco. Only thing wrong is it doesn't have any lettering on one side.



On my last outing I thought I might have a front wheel bearing going out so I put it on the lift and found out my kingpins were worn out. So I tore it apart. While I'm in there I will gusset my knuckles, new wheel bearings, protectors for lower kingpin grease zerk, stage 8 locking spindle nuts, and outer axle tube seals. I'm also going to convert to high steer. I've had everything to do the high steer for about 2 years but I just never have done it. After ruining a cylinder last time at Clayton I said I would have it done before I went back, so I figured this was the time to do it. Just waiting on parts now.
