My 69 K20 is back on the road finally - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Yukon Jack** · 09-20-2005, 02:17 PM

Only took almost 3 years to get it back together

More pics in the 67-72 forum - Linky

Pulled the rear driveshaft last night to get the carrier bearing replaced so technically it is off the road again, but that will only be for a day

Also dealing with an electrical issue - I hate electrical stuff.

That is one Bad Azz flatbed. Looking good. What happened to the carrier bearing?

All your Hard Work Yukon has made one Great looking Truck!! Glad to see your getting closer to driving it!

**Yukon Jack** · 09-20-2005, 10:09 PM

It got a lot of slop in it and was making some terrible noise. Wasn't making that much noise three years ago - or maybe my memory is just bad.

Thanks for the compliments.

What! No step rails??!!?? Honestly though sweet work. Where's the bumper?

**Yukon Jack** · 09-27-2005, 10:23 AM

Bumper will have to be custom made - just haven't gotten to it yet.

Took it out for a drive to a show about 50 miles away Sunday and had a real nice trip. Thankfully no issues.

2wdBlazer · 09-27-2005, 03:33 PM

I'm going to pester you untl I see some 38's with that 10 inch lift. Get wide one too. lol

Jesse72 · 09-30-2005, 10:11 PM

looks great i love the color

**Yukon Jack** · 10-01-2005, 08:27 AM

Thanks. I spent a couple months looking at cars as I was driving before I found a color that was about what I was looking for. This color is based off of a Saturn metallic silver. We lightened it up a little and used more flake.

nu2-72 · 10-01-2005, 10:14 AM

Very nice. I remember seeing some of the cab pics and the mods you made then. How does it all look re-assembled? Link me a pic if you have one.

1967k30 · 10-01-2005, 02:31 PM

Nice looking truck.It used to be orange right? You had a pic' of it on Pirate4x4 right?

**Yukon Jack** · 10-02-2005, 04:50 PM

nu2-72 I will get some good pics of the engine bay for you showing how the mods appear with the engine in.

1967K30 - the truck was an ugly yellow before.
