Re: 1970 One Owner Short Step

I stripped the driver's door so I could take it to the sand blaster...unfortunately they ended up blasting off my door vin! I was super disappointed. The door was fairly rough, but I was saving it since the tag was original...oh well I can't reinvent a 44 year old tag. These are the shots where I mocked up the steering. It is all in place waiting for final assembly and then the front end alignment shop. Also a shot with the freshly painted trailing arms in place. You will see the carrier bearing bracket still in place, but I ended up taking it out and will be putting in a one piece drive shaft tomorrow. With the mounts in the stock location, I ended up getting a 54" drive shaft (including the u-joints) I will post pictures and measurements when I get a chance.
