4x4 SWB 1970 CST/10 Build
Hello all and welcome. Starting a build thread for my project. It started when I found a 1970 CST/10 LWB on craigslist with factory air for $500 (score!) and on the way home I had big plans. Next I bought a 67 4x4 LWB frame and then also acquired a 4x4 87 to part out. I currently have the 67 frame sandblasted and painted with POR 15. There was quite a bit of rust in the rear cross members and I am currently doing rust repairs on them. I took the axles from the 87 and went through them and replaced all the seals, bearings, and brakes. I also took the rear spring mounts from the 87 (shorter than 67 for swb conversion and old ones were pretty rusted) and the transmission/transfer case. I am currently bouncing between repairing cross members and mounting the rear springs. I built new front spring mounts (I was missing the old ones) for my new front springs. Once I get the rear springs mounted I should be able to mount my axles and torch the frame in half for the SWB conversion. Ill try to add pictures.
