Re: Project: "ResuWrecktion" '71 Custom Deluxe C-10

Back on it after getting called out to sea for a few days.


Time to install the rack notches, marked my centerline and started chopping.



I flushed the edge of the notch with the frame rails and filled some holes and removed some factory bumps.









Dropped in the CPP rack and checked clearances.





Installed the spindles, hubs and tie rod ends and began the process of cutting off the steering rods and roughing in the suspension geometry.








Worked on installing the core support drop mounts, measured and cut the frame horns and installed the mounts. I will leave the front portions loose for now, I will be running a front roll pan so I'm not sure how much modifying I will need to do up front yet. C-clamped in place so I don't lose them.









It's looking more like a chassis now, disregard the bar clamps on the control arms. I used them to keep the pressure off the air bags while I moved the frame around to sweep up.





I have some small parts on order for little things. My sway bar came with 1 1/8" bushings and hardware so I have ordered 1 1/4" stuff.

Also shock mounting studs are on order, them I can mount the shocks and shock relocators. Hopefully this weekend all that is done.
