Re: Project: '72 Family Hauler

I took a week off work to focus on the Burb. The to-do list included installing the Deadend Garage C-notch, painting the rest of the rails, moving the rear crossmember to install the 31 gallon fuel tank, mocking up the fuel tank, swapping springs to the CPP 4” HD, completing the rearend rebuild(ended up with a Truetrac and 3.73 gears), and running new brake and fuel lines from front to rear. I initially added the one inch blocks as well but I think it would be too low with the weight of the vehicle so I pulled those back out for now. I also have a No-limit rear sway bar that I tried to snake between the body and top of rails but I just didn’t have the ability to raise the body high enough to get it through. Maybe I’ll try again at a later date. I’m close to having the fuel pump wiring sorted out to maybe get this thing running soon.
