Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread

HAAAAA not a problem at my house my burb is "overbodydropped" meaning my frame is still 3-4" off the ground when flat out down,,,,just roll the jack (lo pro jack, of course) between the wheel well and tire,,,jack it up *piece a toast*

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

no pics yet, but i finished welding and boxing up the lower a arms, need to do some grinding and some wire wheeling, and drill a couple holes for the bags, then i can paint them and start putting them together. sure hope i can get the ball joints out of my other a arms without damaging them.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

got my new tires installed today, bought some more spray paint to finish and paint a few things, reinstalled my rear lower bag bracket crossmember, drilled the hole for the lighted cig lighter (now i need to wire it up), sprayed some rust reformer on the inside of the drivers side fender, and bought some chrome exhaust tips.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

installed the rear bags and lines, aired it up and set it on the ground. then i moved the jack stands to the front, so i can tear it apart in the next couple of days or so to do the front bag and drop spindle install. also installed the chrome exhaust tips.

Re: The '67 Burb Build Thread
 

wire wheeled and grinded down the a arms, want to get them sand blasted before paint and reassembly. gonna go back out and start tearing apart the front end in a few minutes

Glad to see you got some new tires. Since the last time I saw them, they were so bald on the outer edge you could see the air. :lol:
