Re: My first 67-72! (68 Burb)

Thanks for asking! Man it's been a busy summer, Yard work on the acreage, working on all my other vehicles.. But with the help of my welder friend, I did make some progress. My buddy Brent talked me out of the hokey square tubing gusset I had cut to fit and He welded in a nice clean gusset for the front hangers. He also welded in a flat piece on each side of the frame where there had been the stepped out holes for the park brake cables which were conflicting with the shackle hangers sitting flat against the frame. I test fit the shackle hangers and leafs and it all looked good so I took it all apart again to buff the frame for paint. Next on the list is the 4wd motor mounts.
