Foam went in the trash a while ago.

Dropped of the donor and the truck to John (ChiefRocka) AMERICAN CUSTOMS & CLASSICS in Hollister today for a 72' front and rear swap and bags. Can't wait to see what she looks like with a better stance.
Hopefully John will post some progress pics this week.

Every one of us dreams of a neighbor like yours. Do something nice for him.

I cleared about 1/2 an acre of his property for him

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:07 PM

Hey guys ....

We put in some time today on Vova's 70 ....

He came to us with a plan to spend two days worth of time to take care of the 'heavy' stuff .... so that way he can tackle the small stuff at home.

Basically swap the rebuilt 5 lug suspension from the Burb to the truck ....

Here are some pics.....

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:10 PM

Donor burban ...

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:15 PM

Since our shop if filled to the max with cars, we enjoyed the nice weather outside ....

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:17 PM

......

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:23 PM

Years of grime .... chiseled and vacuumed out...

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:25 PM

One of my favorite 'tools' in the shop .....

Just imagine if the factory used this when these old rigs were built .... we wouldnt be having so much fun now !

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:28 PM

The first mod .... is to remove the two story high bumpstop mount ....

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:31 PM

CHASSIS TECH ?!?!? (Guess your new here, huh Vova ?)

These rear mounts were not up to par, so some mods were in order ...

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:32 PM

They came with the rig (yea, that's it).

**ChiefRocka** · 10-14-2013, 11:34 PM

The lower aarm plates were funky as well, but fortunately I had some left over cups im stock that just needed some freshing up....
