Re: 1972 C20 -Airride conversion-

Thanks ZohmBii.

Next up, found a nice dry spot in the shed, and started dismanteling the Pickup.

Took the bed and wheels off:


Took the axle out:


Front suspension disassembled:


everything against the wall:


Cleaned off the new 5-lug rear axle:



cleaned off the frame a bit, put some wheels on the axle and held it in place to have a look at it:


seems like it could work

Trying to not die while disassembling the front suspension from the 5-lug front axle

I found out that the spring from a 1973 c/10 are a little longer and have more pre tension than the sprins from a 1792 c/20. So without any weight on the axle it was a little sketchy to get it all apart.
But, didn't die, got it apart. Win for me

Thats it again for now, fun stuff starts tomorrow!
