Re: 1965 C10 Fleet Project - unfinished business

Finally got some brighter weather here so tackled the rear axle and suspension intial fit up.

Got the trailing arm bushes pressed in and fitted those up first.

Then the 5" shorter springs with upper and lower mounts.

Then carefully slid the rear axle underneath and bolted it through the drop blocks and squeezed it all up with painted U bolts.

Hardest part of the job was getting the upper spring retainer nuts on whilst holding everything together :-)

Happy the rear end is mostly there - I can now build up the axle, once the TrueTrac arrives - it finally came into stock - step by step...
