Re: 2 for 1 Part II...

Had a small problem with one of the spindles, the lower ball joint hole had a bur at the top that was not letting the BJ stud go all the way thru. I checked the other one and it was ok, so a 5/8" drill bit was run thru and just took off enough.

So, last night I put in the springs and spindles and new brake hoses:



I masked off the rotors and got them painted:


This morning before leaving for work, I pulled off the masking:


Plan is to have the front suspension wrapped up by the end of the weekend. Then I will move onto the engine/trans and get that completed.

After that I will tackle the rear suspension. I need to decide on which rear end I am going to use, I know that the 10 bolt that is there now is going away, it only have 2.73 gears. I have another 10 bolt with 3.73 gear and an open carrier. I am looking at a 12 bolt a friend has in a parts truck. I might try to get that one...
