Re: Ultimate work truck/ 70 K10 diesel

hey Clint, I'm about as far along as you are on a 72 k10 build with 52s dana60 14bolt with discs sm465 w205.

I dont have a garage, all my work has been done in the yard outside so my progress is about 300 times slower than yours is. I havnt gotten to the downpipe off the turbo yet. I know its going to be right into the frame rail or just outside of it if its straight down. Have you given any thought into trying to get the downpipe INSIDE the frame rails?

My plan is getting the downpipe inside the framerail. I've got pictures of how I want to modify the passenger side manifold so the downpipe will fit past. Next time I'm on my computer I'll post it.

As far as the Eldorado calipers, I've read ther
