Re: Project Old Blue, 1965 C10, Rebuild Version 2010
Here are my short term plans for now, with notes on what I still need to get for each step.
1. Install PBFab Lower Forward Arms, modiified McGaughy's Drop spindles for C5 front brakes, 13" C5 front brakes, No Limit rack & pinion conversion, PBFab Addco 1.25" sway bar, 3/4T front springs with 2 coils removed and KYB Gas-A-Just shocks.
2. Install stock 12 bolt rear. Install 4:10 gears, C5 rear brakes with parking brake in the hat of the rotor. Use the existing 4" drop springs and 2" drop blocks and CPP C-Notch.
- Need to redrill the axles for 5 lug and machine the regioster to 2.78" for the C5 rotor.
- Need to finish my custom Panhard Bar.
- Need to design and fabricate rear shock mounts.
- Flip the Trailing Arm mounts on the cross member.
- Need new bearings and shims to install gears/rebuild axle.
- Need to clean and paint axle housing.
More to come...
