Re: the rebuild begins next week for the 1966 c10
well the machine shop called today, with less then great news. I bought this truck with a 350 motor and trans. Well the seller was mistaken, its a 305 small block. Not a big deal, but makes me think less of the seller, and me not knowing any better does not help. The guys at the machine shop said no big deal same price, and have it back next week. So I'm kinda bummed, but can't wait to get it all back together.
I took all the a-arms out of the front end today. removed all the ball joints and wheel bearings. Removed the old air bags too. the upper bag mounts were welded in with no access to the hose fitting. Super bad install done by the seller too. so I'm fixing all that too.
Tearing out the drive shaft and all the air line plumbing is next. Getting ready to install new air valves and install a new carrier bearing.
