Re: GRIZZ’s English 2001 S10 Extra Cab 4.3 V6 Truck

So after 5.00pm today I went to get the next bit done.

Sally was only popping in to say hi and drop some groceries for me.

This allowed me to focus for 90 minutes.

Keep in mind, I have to think every move through.

So started with this, left from last night.



BFH to the rescue.



Fitted



Secured



Happy.



Ball joints and bushes renewed.




Then came the @pauly moment.

I was dreading it, while I could imagine him on a throne……. Laughing his head off.



Result



This seems to have given me a 2 1/4 inch reduction

I have no idea if that is the right way to look at it.

Sure it will make a difference.





I also realised that the pile of discarded, replaced parts from the running gear was steadily growing.





Once cut, the springs went in in reverse to the way the had come out.

Once was all reassembled, it was nice to see it this far.





Tomorrow or Saturday I will refit the Anti Roll Bar and other bits that are waiting their second reassembly.

Then the wheels back on and of course back under the chassis.

Almost the weekend too.
