Re: 70 Jimmy build

Loading it on the trailer I actually spun one of the axle tubes. Was really bummed as I was hoping to be able to get it drivable over a weekend but sourcing an axle ended up taking a while. Used a rear end from a 69 c10, chopped off the trailing arm mounts and welded perches on. the c10 axle is about an inch and a half wider. New drums and shoes while it was apart. I will be swapping the 3.73 posi from the broken rear end back into this at some point. Also got a new windshield in it (that was an extreme pain in the ass and the seal looks wonky but, it doesn’t leak or move so it’s staying)
