Re: Curt's '72 K20 Resto-mod

We got the 2 1/2" blocks put on the rear differential. Man, what a job.
My Craftsman air compressor and impact wouldn't even phase the u-bolt nuts. Got ahold of a beast 3/4" drive Rockwell electric impact. After soaking with WD-40 the Rockwell worked. It weighs a ton, too.
Once we broke everything loose, it went together pretty easy. No modifying like the front springs.

After I took this picture, I realized how much touching up I needed to do as far as paint and detail the exhaust pipes. I never thought about them while the bed was off.
It's the little things that make a difference to me. I want it to look as nice underneath as it does on top. Better to do this stuff now.
