Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I didn't know what I was getting into
![]() I pulled the front clip, suspension and core support. Just a matter of time......and time.....and time. Started the rockers, and finished pulling the cab.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I have recently worked on the sheetmetal - rockers (inners and outers) floor pans, gas filler delete, bed stake holes delete, rear marker light delete, and just started the upper right roof rust delete.
I finished sandblasting and painting the chassis, and started installing the airbags and fuel cell. I did a disk brake 2.5 in drop spindle and added a 71 rearend for the 5 lugs. An adjustable tracbar was a must for the bags and may have to move the front crossmember forward about 1 inch.

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
The front crossmember was already installed and now it has to be removed to move it forward
![]() Well, the great Southern weather is not cooperating so 2 weekends without much progress. I will keep the posts and pics coming as the project progresses. Thanks for looking! ![]()

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
I decided against moving the Xmember forward, it is more simple to shim the rear of the top a-arm and gain about 1 inch instead of going through all of the work and time of moving the Xmember forward to gain 1.25 inches. Also, tubular a-arms correct the geometry some too.

Cool, thanks Scottmo! Didn't check it yet......may be time to pull out the cutting wheels!! I will take pics for everyone on the board as to where the crossrail is...as compared to the filler for a longbed. This site has helped tremendously during my build, keep up the great work everyone!!

Re: 1967 C10 Custom Big Window
What fuel cell did you go with? I'm debating whether to go with a plas
tic or steel tank. That tank look like it fits real well. Where did you order it from? Thanks Shawn |
