Kevin,
I sure hope I can figure out where to get the cash for a set of Alcoas like that guy is running. I'm currently more on a paint my stockers or run simulators kind of budget, that is, about 900 short of Alcoas.
I'm bracing myself for buying six tires for this truck already. Tires and Alcoas would run about 2000 bucks total.
Today's progress was getting the back side done.
Everything went smoothly after I got all the parts here. GM Dana 60 brake parts are getting very hard to come by nowdays. The hub seals were particularly elusive.
Pardon the masking tape, the paint on the axles was still drying, so I wanted to make sure no dust got inside the rear before I put them back in place.
Brakes done :
Brake drum installed:
Spacer in place :
Tomorrow starts cleaning and rebuilding the front spindles, brakes, and rotors. They are a greasy mess right now. But, since they are 84 vintage, I expect the brake parts to be easy to source.
