Re: #corona10truck - 77 C-10, pancaked crossmember - z'd frame etc etc etc

And basically here's where it sits now.

1 1/2" Pancaked crossmember
2" frame "Z"
1" Stretched wheelbase
1/2" narrowed lower control arms
1/4" narrowed & 1/4" rearward upper ball joints
1 1/4" raised steering
1 coil chopped off the springs

Front is good enough now to roll around, but still needs steering (going to need to use a U-joint style steering shaft with 3 U-joints to clear the upper control arm). I'll probably take care of the rear suspension before I get to the steering, I'd like the chassis fab to be complete, then the cab repairs, then mock up a driveline etc.
