Re: Loosenutz's 66 SWB BBW LM4 Build

Decided to start tearing the front suspension apart to get ready for the CPP brake conversion kit's arrival. It's safe to say that someone greased this truck on the regular. Ball joints are covered a a giant ball of hardened grease and dirt. Upper control arm shafts feel pretty good but the lowers are a little sloppy. Decided to just replace them all while it's apart. I will also be cutting a coil off the front springs, relocating the upper shock mount higher, and performing the caster improvement mod to the lower control shafts. Got the original drums and spindles removed and that's enough for tonight. They are free to a good home if anyone wants them otherwise their going in the recycling bin.
