Well i'm going to try and build a truck from the ground up before the midwest meet the end of the month. Go ahead and get the laughs in now. Anyways i'm looking for either new or slightly used tie rod ends, new ball joints, bushings, anything that y'all can think that i might need. The catch is that i'm on a slight budget. Or even if you know where the best place to get these from is. If not i will resort to the local auto parts store. Post up here with your responses.

I'm not sure what you are looking for, but I just took a lot of good drum brake front end parts off of my 70, (switched to disc) so if you need any of that let me know.

Don't need the drum parts i'm switching to disc myself, just most of the ball joints and stuff are worn out. Thanks for the off er though.

I will check out rockauto thanks for the tip.

As far as sheet metal goes i think i'm good right now. I have a friend looking for a a passenger box side though.

Also i will be needing a set of four core radiator mounts/straps, and i'm sure there will be more in the next couple days.

thanks for all your replies
