Re: Project: 1966 Stepside LWB

Ok, I had to go get myself an air chisel to chisel out the rivets on the top and a ball joint tool to press the lower ball joint out and press the new one in. This took me forever as the new joint kept wanting to press in crooked. I finally got it right with a lot of hammer work and some finesse.

Right now, I have the new front left drop spindle on with the 6 lug conversion specific hub/rotor and bearings and all on just so I could get the tire on for the night and take a look at the drop. I got new tie rods that I'll install next and then start getting the brakes hooked up. After that, I'll start on the right side.

Stay posted for pics soon.
