Re: '69 Longbed Daily Driver - Project
finally an update. I've been doing a lot of small stuff to the truck over the past couple months, but now i'm making some good progress.
the whole rear end has been taken apart. I had a set of good trailing arms media blasted, then painted black. after pressing out the old bushings, i put new ones in.
Today the trailing arms got mounted and the carrier bearing mount was flipped. I also did a test fit of the home made lowering blocks and new u bolts. looks like everything is coming together well.
next on the plate is getting the exhaust cutouts done in the X member, and the c-notch installed.
oh, and i noticed that i had not posted an engine shot in this thread, so one is attached below. nothing special. just a 2bbl 283 with corvette heads/intake. at least that's what the PO claimed them to be.
