Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

all jacked up and nowhere to go!!!!! got the frame up off the ground for the brake work. Dammed ifn I didn't order the wrong wheel bearing from rock auto :/ apparently my spindles are froma 79 gmc with the 8600 lb front suspension so got the right bearings ordered tonight for it. Turns out I can use either the 9/16 inch lug rotors or the later 98 14 mm stud rotors as they use the same bearing kits for now using the 9/16th set until they wear out then move to the 14 mm stud set since those are what the 2006 rims use factory.
Also got my steering box today and its a work of art!!!! nice paint job red head steering gears out of auburn Washington provided me this gorgeous lil gem bit more expensive but tight as hell looking forward to getting it on the frame and ready for work!
