Ackattack's Pro touring restoration thread

Sandblasting is complete!!!!

The cross member is cut out. So I guess it's time to start putting it back together.

I was blasting the lower A-arms and noticed they were damaged, so I went out to my parts pile and tore off another set. I'm not sure if they're the right year, or maybe they're for 73+. I guess I'll post some pictures and/or compare them to my 72 GMC's.

In laws were in town for a week and today's my 6th anniversary...so not much work has been getting done. I'll get more pics later.

Pretty easy to tell. Later model (73-up) have the shell w/a larger rubber bushing & press fit into the a-arms.

64~72's have rubber-lined steel bushings & 'thread' into the a-arms.
