1977 K10 2" Lift Install

Thanks Larry! Did I read a rumor about a D60 swap? Don't keep us hanging, it is winter and we need our BigAssGas project!

Yo MSGROSS, no steering arm or drag link yet. All the pics I posted of the drivers side that show the arm are with the axle unsupported, at full droop. The drag link isn't perfectly level, but not nearly as bad as shown in those pictures. My plan is to let the springs settle a bit, then measure and see what I need to do to get the steering geometry back in line.

Hehe, yes….you did. It was a quick easy swap too as I collected all of the needed swap parts before I started removing the D44. I spent two hours last night pulling the D44, repainting springs, rolling the D60 under it then spent a few hours tonight getting the D60 all bolted up. The D44 brake calipers are still connected and hanging on the springs. Tomorrow I need to pull the D44 calipers and lines off and hook up the new D60 brake lines, and retorque u-bolts. Zoomad is supposed to swing by Thursday night to help bleed brakes. I’ll have the full report once it is done. The bigassgas project for this winter is a NV4500 into the Polar Bear Burb.
