Blasted the front axle and hope to spray it with por-15 tomorrow. Baby steps!

Bennington - Home of Hemmings Motor News! I will keep you in mind as I need stuff. I am good with sheetmetal but may need some odds and ends.

I am new to the truck scene and have a question for ya. The u-joints in my 72 seem to be welded in, can they be modified to a press fit/clipped u-joint or will I have to buy new axles. Sorry for thr noob question, just out of the loop at this point. Your truck is looking great and thanks a bunch for all of the pics.

Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

Welcome aboard! Did someone weld them as they are held in with c clips from the factory. Once the clips are removed the caps press out. Post some photos if you have any.

Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

I surely will post some pics as soon as I get caught up. I read in LMC that there are two different types of u-joints, one of which is the welded version. Wasn't sure if this was done at the factory or not. If I can source out some that aren't that will prolly be the path I will go. Thanks for taking the time to respond.

Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

It has been slow going but hope to break the cam in soon. The tires were tough to find in 16.5" but was finally able to find Specialty tire of America that makes an entire line of old school bias ply mud/snow tread in 16.5". Check them out: http://www.stausaonline.com/light-tr...r-traxion.html

I really wanted to use the 16.5x6 wheels. Can't go very wide with them.

Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

I got my set from these guys. http://tiremartusa.com/p-135-super-t...-tubeless.aspx

They had great prices. The 9.50 x 16.5 were about $40 cheaper than anyone else I could find. I did have a problem with one that took several months to resolve but in the end they made good.

Re: 1970 swb K10 Resurrection (AKA "The Chum Bucket") "Photos"

Actually have been working on it. Rearched the springs and added one leaf front and back. Got the engine together and broke in the cam. Now I am back on the bodywork and lots of blocking on the 2k high build urethane primer. Hope to get color on it in the next month or so.*
