Re: Project Family Burb. 1972 C10 suburban build

I've got to remove the stock BBC exhaust hangers. More than likely I'll run 4" exhaust to possibly dual 3" tail pipes behind the back tires. I'm planning on cutting the control arm mount cross member and putting a piece of 5" tube in there to give a place for the 4" to pass through.

I will take the drive shaft to the drive line shop next week. Get the front shaft shortened, have spicer non greaseable u joints installed and a new carrier bearing.

The trans has a double deep pan for extra fluid capacity and it doesn't hang too far down luckily. This burb will more than likely only get a 3" drop and that will be it. It needs to be driven on bad roads and weird approach angles.
