Re: 67 GMC Lift thread

Ok...since most guys just wanna see pictures...i'll post some up.

I get side tracked sometimes...my goal is to get it lifted, but i decided to do a few things to the motor and interior while i had it at a managable height.

New Seat Covers...don't laugh at the old lap belts...i'm replacing them


Decided to strip the old paint off the bumper and hit it with some hammered rustoleum



Then went to the spring hangers and the spring eye hangers. A good air hammer will aid a lot. I would rather have used a plasma cutter for the eye hanger instead of a hole saw, but i got it done

Front spring hanger

Did some minor tuning for now so here's a shot of the motor. Not cleaned up yet, but i'll take care of that later


Here's a shot of the front eye hanger that replaces the original equipment.
This is after about 5 minutes of drilling:

Here's the outside

And the inside (sorry for the crappy flash pic)


Here's a shot how it is now.


I'm about to go out there and hang the axle and get some tires under it. All coments good or bad are welcome here.
