Re: 51 GMC 4x4

Ok on to the rear axle.
In the first pic you can see where I extended the frame with the 3x3.
The rear was a bear, because of the frame width of these trucks and the running board mounts and the emergency cable mounts it was turning into a nightmare. Before anyone says that I could have used the original springs, I had no intentions of using them from the beginning, I wanted the ability to get lift springs and ride of later model springs is better, plus I'm going to a gooseneck ball in the bed. This truck going to be used and driven everyday, so I want to be able to get parts at any parts store and have some comforts of later models.
