Re: 1972 SWB Build

I forgot to put up the latest video. I have been driving the truck periodically over the last 2 weeks. When I shortened the driveshaft, I noticed the slip yoke has a slight bit of rust on it. I figured I would run it and see what happens. It is seeping pretty good. I am going to get a new slip yoke installed this week. I have also got to take it back to my trans guy to soften the 1-2 shift. We did a stock rebuild with a HD2 kit. It is almost teeth shattering hard. I've still got to do something with the exhaust. It is ridiculously loud at idle in the cab. I am going to extend the pipes out to the rear and move the x-pipe back. I may add in some resonators to quiet it down a little. Other than that, trying to put some miles on it.
