Re: Rusty, crushy, but trysty.
Cleaned up the rest of the old rear suspension. Was able to put my angle iron brace in the inner frame lower rail with some bolts and some welding should be better than new. Used a lower brace off the suburban frame to replace the rotted one on the truck. I got the 4wd leaf brackets installed. The front ones the 4 one the bottom frame rail were the same but the 4 one the side were not the same, the 4wd bracket is about 1/2 wider so the holes are slightly wider. This required welding the old holes shut and then re-drilling them out, yeah. The rear brackets were the opposite, the side ones were the same, but the bottom two were off by about 1/2 an inch. I got one set of leafs apart and put the new bushings in them, and put it back on the truck, just need to stop and get some new shackle bolts. I started cleaning up the 14 bolt, i am grinding the perch's and some square thing off, guess must of been for the bump stop.
