Marc that's a good idea on the fender lip..will you seal the hammered down gap with sealer or something to keep dirt and water from getting in it and staying?

Re: 53 Surburban "Family Truckster"
looks good. for extra support you could even weld a steel strap inside the fender. tuff decision on the sway bar. I'd say just modify it and save everyone some shipping! don't feel bad, I measure wrong all the time!

$260 to shorten the axle housing and axles is a great deal. It's always about $200 per side for me. Your fender lip turned out nice.

I have been focused on getting the rear end shortened and then rebuilt with new brakes...The backing plates were rusted bad so I purchase new ones. While I had the axles out I removed the brackets that hold the backing plates to clean them up by sandblasting them and primering them then repainting them...You might notice that I also cut off the parking break bracket in an effort to clean the design of them up since I wont be running a parking brake.
I also added more support for my floor structure and then I recut my factory wood to get an idea of how the wood floor will fit. This is the rear housing that will be getting shortened on Friday. Marc |

I also picked up these Rotors off of Ebay. These are only drill (not slotted) so that they match my 13" rotors up front. I'm anal like that. These are stock ZR2 rotors. New calipers will show up tomorrow.
The soon to be narrowed 10 bolt ZR2 housing. Marc |

That's cool you don't need a P brake, 99% of automatics aren't used anyways.
