Converted my original axel to 5 lug. Had to machine it for my rotors to fit as well turned out great! If I new the guy Tommy Lee had do it, I'd give him a shout out!

Cool deal, glad to see the CPP modular spindle actually does for a fact bring in the wheel base.

Yes Scott, I was concerned! But it in fact did every thing Tommy Lee said it would do. I bit the bullet on that one. If you know of anyone looking for a brandnew pair of 2.5 drop spindles I have a pair I will let go for the low low!!! I could use the extra cash to finish up this thing!Attachment 1315321

I would like to have them actually, but have too many other must haves first. I think that I'll be using the CPP modular spindle when I lower my truck next year. What's nice about the modular spindle is that you can run the CPP Big Brake kit without cutting on them vs the standard drop spindles you'd have to cut the ears for the caliper off because the big brakes use their own separate bracket the caliper bolts too.

Exactly one day! I will get bigger brakes and calipers! It's a pretty nice set up! If I still have them, I'd be happy to get them to you!

I appreciate that, but it looks like Mark is ready to buy today. The drop spindles don't last long on here :) beats posting on Craigslist anyday.

Well Shoot Fire!!! Excuse my language! Brothers Truck shipped my truck parts to my old address from 6 years ago! If you look at my first page with my C-10 you can see the same house! Fortunately the house was vacant and my parts were sitting on the porch for like 2 days!

Attachment 1315672 I purchased the Heavy Duty Radiator Pads and Retainers with the Radiator cover. For some reason the Heavy Duty hardware is sitting to high and won't allow me to shut my hood...guess I have to go with the standard hardware.

Attachment 1315673 Laid out my carpet so it can naturally go back in to form for 24 hours. My Sill Plates were suppose to have the Bowties on it, so they are getting shipped back for the right ones!

O.K., another question, where did you get the transmission for that price? Someone local to you?

And, what color is that? From some of the angles it looks black, but in the pics of the inside, the paint looks like a gunmetal gray metallic?

Used the remaining amount of my 58sq ft bundle of Hushmat for my doors full coverage! Outside and Inside! Great difference with 58 sq. ft you can totally cover your cab! Minus my ceiling! Because I'm not covering it I was generous in places like my door, firewall, and can!
