Re: 1971 GMC Donald

Thought of a few things as I was laying under the truck adjusting my trailing arm mounts up a spot because I felt a slight shudder at about 85MPH the last time I drove it to work and it seems as though the driveline angle is a little different now that the suspension has completely settled. Anywho...

I did get a new steering wheel finally and put it on over the Xmas break along with a new heater control panel that my good buddy custom made me.

Also pulled a plug after my 9psi hit to see how things were looking in there.

Hewittca, I didn't pull the wheel off, but i did see that the back side of the wheel is almost perfectly flush with the drum brake backing plate and I'd guesstimate the backspacing pretty close to 4" on those rear wheels.
