Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

kinda looks like mine.... lol

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

tearin into the front this truck has never been touched as far as ball joints or anything its pretty clean

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

got the spindle installed with new ball joints

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

got to this point and guess what my brakes dont fit now

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

So now im stumped on what to do i was thinkin i would go to the parts store and buy some different calipers til i find some that will work

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

What is causing the brakes not too fit?

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

kinda looks like the rotor is too big this truck has heavy duty everything so i dunno maybe i could find some lighter duty 8 lug rotors .would that change the diameter?

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

It might...I dont know for sure though. I would call oriellys and they should be able to tell you if there is different sizes

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

ill try that

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

ok so apparently im a ra-tard all i had to do was bend the brake lie a little and the caliper fit just fine ha ha

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

Any pictures of it on the ground?

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

need some shorter springs now

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

Just cut a coil out of it and you should be good. Each coil is 2 inches. It should not change your ride quality.

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

thats what i did on my 87 but it sits kinds crooked i dunno maybe ill try it on this truck and see how it goes maybe i can cut these coils without setting my pants on fire with the sparks from the grinder like i did when i cut the ones for my 87 ha ha

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

my ball joint press i got at harbour freight cheap it was priced wrong but i got it for what it was marked at ha ha it works great

Re: 75 C20 long bed 2wd
 

on rusty chrome parts like you bumper or whatever.. get a piece of tin foil, wet it with water, ball it up and scrub the chrome, takes off the rust without too much scratching.
