Yes. Better late than never.
Was not making much progress for a few years then got back on it this summer. Also purchased a bunch more parts. Still need to do more metal patch work.

Rebuilt the front end, added drop springs and shocks, dual master brakes with disc, drop spindes. New poly bushings on rear trailing arms, power steering, sway bar. new tires and powder coated the rims.

Will post up some photos.

Re: 1963 suburban - fixin it up

Add some new springs, shock relocators and shocks from ECE.
Before pic of w stock height and red rims.
Pics of rear end and codes on rear end.

Question: Do I have to open up the read end to check the rear ratios or is there a way to look up the code?
