Re: Vintage 4wd Pictures:Other Makes

I had all the new parts staged and a reach lift and a fork lift.
Remove the bed. Remove the tandem suspension. Set the new bed on. Center the new front suspension under the new trailer bed. Remove the bed. Install the new front suspension in the rear. Shorten the brake lines. Reverse the rear hubs for single wheels. Cut the excess frame off the back. Install bumperetts. Install the bed. Bled the brakes. Install the super singles. Drive it away in front drive till I got the rear driveshaft shortened or lengthend. I don't remember. 15 hr. days. It was something I had to do.
