1966 SWB Build Thread

[darby555]

Thanks for the advice 65sub.

No progress on the truck yet...still working on getting my shop done.

I did order some parts though and decide on the direction I wanted to go with the suspension.

I went with Porterbuilt control arms and front sway bar. I am going to use 73-87 steering and brake components.

I will soon be ordering:

-Boyd fuel tank
-ECE trailing arms and cross member
-2.5" drop spindles
-springs and shocks (I'm leaning toward a 4/6 drop) with shock relocation brackets
-ECE super trac bar

I am going focus on the suspension first and then move on as I can see this starting to get overwhelming for me...pretty much everything is new to me so I will be learning as I go. Can't wait to tear into it though...


Thanks for reading and for the feedback thus far.
