Well its been cold for the past two weeks here so I had not worked on the truck for a while. Sunday it was nice and warm so my dad and I went down and worked on it.
I bought some k30 spring hangers from member "Tswore" so that I could mount my dually axle back under the frame. It looks like I have about 4 inches of height change in the back compared to the 2wd hangers. I still need to get new u-bolts to mount up the rear axle and rear sway bar.
I then moved back to the Dana 44 to get it all back together. I have replaced all seals, U-Joints, Ball joints, ect... I just have to clean up the hub, repack the bearings, get a new tierod and drag link and then add some fluid and the front end should be done.
I also started tearing into the D70, I will be replacing brake pads, wheel cylinders, and seals, and then its time to paint the axle.
List of things to do.
-Mount engine cross member
-Figure out front brake lines
-Sand blast/Paint Suspension components (Springs/hangers/u-bolt plates)
-Clean/Paint frame
-Install tow hooks
-Shorten rear drive shaft
-Mount Engine/Trans/T-Case
-Figure out wiring
-Install Body
That is just a rough list of what I am going to do. I still have a lot of little parts that I need to find to be able to fully get this thing going.
