Re: 1972 Build thread.

Body is officially on the frame.

I have a couple of small issues.

(#1) The body is touching the top of the transfer case. Just a smidge.looks like an easy fix, but if I drop the t-case an 1" it may create an issue with the tall valve covers kissing the firewall...

(#2) The soft ride springs in the rear have my rear axle forward at least 2-1/2"... not OK, this will get addressed as soon as I educate myself on the issue. I have been seeing this on lifted Blazers for a while.

(#3) passenger side header does not fit. It is swept back to far, the flange is almost up against the body flange at the bottom of the firewall. They were cheap headers from a local mom and pop shop here in town.

Everything else seems good for the moment. I'll elaborate with some pics in a little while.

Thank you Classic Heartbeat... the body mounts were top notch.
