Re: 72 GMC K2500, short bed build
Its all shortened up. I did a step cut on the frame like i always do.
I shortened the rear driveshaft myself, done tons of them, never had any vibration issues either.
I got it back together today and went for a drive.
Floors are all tacked in, rockers set in place with screws. I didnt weld them, because im doing a little sandblasting on the cowl and floor and without the rockers its easier to clean up.
I refit the entire body and it fits together pretty nice.
I put a decent used exhaust on it while i had the body off, no it has full exhaust with good mufflers that exit behind the rear tires.
While i had the body off i serviced the rear end, despite sitting for a very long time the rear end is in good shape inside, no rust or excessive wear noted.
