Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Thanks, I'm happy with how it turned out.

I picked up a new axle a Dana 80 dually posi with 3:54 gears out of a second gen 3500. The dana 80 is 72.75 hub to hub and the stock axle is around 63 hub to hub. I will need to move the Spring Perchs and shock mounts. The axle had new bearings seals, and brake pads but one seal was leaking really bad and runed the pads. After pulling it apart it looks like the breather was clogged. But there is some wear on the axle where the seal sits, so I will be installing a set of speedi-sleeve 99296.

this side was not leaking

but where the seal sits has more wear.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Nice find on the D80. You should like that a lot better. The 3:54s just work so well behind a 12v. If you decide to sell the HO rear axle I might be interested in it.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

I have been looking for a rear axle for a while now. I really wanted a dana s 110 but the gearing is just to short, I would have had to go with 4:30 gears. But I'm happy with the dana 80 and is should be great on the interstate. I am selling it, But I cannot imagine what shipping would cost.

I removed the coil spring perches that were booger welded on.

I also reinstalled parking brake pedal as i'm finally going to have a parking brake, well if fedex every decides to drop off my packages. I was going to make an electric parking brake as the fuse box I made is in the way but I think it will just fit with 3/8 on both sides.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...a089074f_b.jpg20210925_204051 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr


I also had to move the manual fuel shut off on the other side. I think I will like it better here.


https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...26d7dc86_b.jpg20210925_204057 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr


I cut off the old spring perches
.


https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...4c8738fb_b.jpg20210926_140228 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr


I made some shock mount brackets the inside factory mount was the same place as the outside mount on the old axle. so I just had to add one tab to each side and that way II Will hopefully be able to use the dana 80 sway bar.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...89467feb_b.jpg20210930_151119 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr

Nice work on the jig and getting the new mounts put on. It's nuts how long that stuff takes to get all done.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Sorry about the pic size.


The jig ended up working perfectly, Its all the little things that take for ever, that and it doesn't help that Fedex ended up losing some of my brake parts for the axle.

I installed a pair of Speedi-Sleeves on the axle but they where to long I had to trim them to fit. Not sure If your supposed to but It worked out.

Well..... Waiting on brake parts I finally decided to install the mirrors. So I have be trying to decide on what to do about the mirrors for a few years now. I like the way west coast tow mirrors look but the idea of drilling all those holes in the dor and then in a few year then starting to rust I just could not bring my self to do it. The and I need the mirrors to fold out of the way as I park it in the lower half of our barn and its narrow. After years of trying to decide on how to mount the mirrors I decided to mount them like the way the do on the kodiak trucks on the cowl. My cowl panel is junk It hand a lot of little holes and pitting already so I have no problem cutting it up.

I cam across some assist shocks for cheap. I don't know if they actually do anything it says it gives any extra 500lbs of load on each shock and supposed to give a little lift idk but they sit at the same height as the old ones. that said i'm running helper bags any ways to help keep the load level. and its way cheaper then replacing the old leaf springs.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Nice work on it. I like your junction box for your trailer connectors. Nice work on the bag mods and bed widening. If has been a warm fall. Next week around here is going to be warm too. Sounds great to me!

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Great work on the boxes and doors

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Thanks, I'm happy with the junction box, I also run my tellights off it and it makes it easy to add lights. It looks like its going to be cooling down next week here. It was 72 on christmas day here, apparently it was the warmest christmas in the last 30 some years here.


Thanks, I can't wait to get the other side skinned.

I hope you all have a wonderful new year!

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

You spent a lot of time with the plasma cutter on those trees. Nice little gift though. I like the exhaust exit. Looks good

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Unfortunately I spent more time cleaning the slag off then It took me to cut them. The where a big hit with the family! I'm happy with how the exhaust turned out.

I've been neglecting this thread. I finally started back at work so I haven't posted any updates. But I have made a lot of progress.

I have a few months worth of a photo dump.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

My buddy that I painted his truck gave me an old warn winch that he got on trade. He though it was told it was an 8k but it is a 6k. but after I did a bit of research on them it has the same gear ratio as the 9k winch. so I'm going to upgrade the motor and motor plate and make it a 9k winch.

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

Its been a while since I have posted. I have not stopped on the truck. I have just gotten lazy with my up loads.

Back last year after I finished the winch I installed a York compressor I have had sitting since 2012 I always planed on using it for onboard air on something but just have not.

Its a york 206

Re: 1970 C30 Car hauler Buildish thread.
 

I built a new shifter! It started out as a old Hurst 4 speed shifter that I found in our barn when we bought the house. back in 05 I think?

I cant find some of the pics. The chrome was coming off it was super rusty and pitted. In this pic it looks like i just finished sanding all the chrome a pits off of it getting ready to cut it.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...733d3429_h.jpg20220816_205308 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr

I made some brackets to be able to bolt it on and make it height adjustable.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/...dec663e3_h.jpg20220816_214714 by jarrod vanwinkle, on Flickr

here is the bracket welded in place and the shifter polished. before I copper and nickel plated them.
