Re: 1964 GMC 3/4 ton build :D

Hey Sean, It was great to meet you and see the Smurf-hauler in person. You really got it going on! Hopefully next weekend, I’ll have a chance to check out the adapter and thanks again for the parts and all of the insights you gave me. Anyone can do a simple ½ ton but it takes a lot more to redo an old 8 lug truck since no one makes bolt-on rear discs like you came up with.
I wish I were as far along with my POS as you are on ol’ blue, but things are what they are; something only time and cubic dollars can change. The covered panels look good man, as will the rest of the interior. I can’t wait to see what the assembled console will look like with that side bent Lokar shifter sticking up out of it. I forgot to ask about the specifics on the tailshaft extension you put on your previous transmission because I want to get rid of that rubber mounted U-joint coupling that is one the 6L80 right now. And thanks for telling me about needing to use a long shaft U-joint yoke in there.
