Re: 1973 K20 Build Thread

Thanks so much, guys. I got a little more done today. I ground off the rivets that hold the E-brake cables to the frame. I'm going to have to fab something up to lower them. Pics on that later. Steering was also loose so I got a new (reman) steering box.

On a bad note, I broke a grease fitting from one of the new tie rods! The threads broke inside the tie rod flush.

So now I have to figure out something, maybe tap it out somehow. At least I had already greased it up, and it will work fine. Worst case I'll just go and get another tie rod.
