Re: "Geronimo" 54' 3100 LS built in PA

1-5 well I head back to my normal work schedule this week, so back to 3 days a week on Geronimo.

Got some steel rims made by US rims from summit, I shoulda been getting these from day one rather than looking for the perfect factory steel rim, and worrying about getting them blasted. These were a killer deal and came with the centers. they have a lot of options which is nice. Im going with the 15x6" and they have dual bolt pattern. Can't wait to get them in paint and get some tires tossed on so I can get this on the ground and proceed.

Whipped up the outter leaf bracket with some .25" angle iron I had laying around. Not the most factory looking piece but its sure is stronger than an s10
bracket. My plan is to make some up on cnc and some plans, therefore if anyone wants to do a rearend/leaf spring swap my kit will be a cheap alternative than the big brands. The bracket that is in the way is the stock ebrake bracket which I'll relocate.
