Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"

I got the steering brace installed and was in a hurry and forgot to take pictures. I will get some.

The steering box bolt hole shims where as follows:
1-Top column bolt no shim

2-Bottom column end 2-3/16" thick 7/16 washers( fits inside the dimpled bolt area of the frame) a 1/4" think shim.

3-Top radiator side bolt no shim

4-Bottom radiator side bolt 3-3/16"thick 7/16 washers plus 1- 1/4" thick shim (this is to align the small steering brace to the crossmember hole

5-the big brace to crossmember I drilled a 1/2" hole for a 1/2"X1-1/4" bolt. Used 2-1/4" shims.

I will get a few pictures so hopefully this will make sense.
