New to me 1972 K5 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have been collecting parts to get rid of the 4" lift blocks in the rear. I was originally going with the ORD shackle flip but ended up with DIY4x because it uses shackles like the ones found on the front springs... I also got a set of perches, shot mounts and U bolts from Ruff Stuff....

Today before work I went and picked up another rear axle. This one is from a 2004 Duramax SRW truck. It a AAM 14bolt full floater that has an 11.5" ring gear, 1410 yoke and disk brakes with the integral parking brake. This thing is friggin' HUGE!
