Re: Project; Divorce Therapy ( 72 SWB 4x4 )
Progress report: I've been working on rebuilding the front end on my truck.
Took it down to an empty housing; and built it back up from there. Regeared it to 3:73s, upgraded it to the large bearing hub & spindles, larger axles, all new bearings, seals, ball joints, axle joints, new locking hub parts, brakes and paint.

Re: Project; Divorce Therapy ( 72 SWB 4x4 )
Looking good. Fender clearance seems a a bit tight for up travel. One of the reasons I clearanced my fenders for the larger tires.

It's an optical illusion, just the angle of the picture, there's actually good clearance.
I noticed that after I posted the pic. Gary

Re: Project; Divorce Therapy ( 72 SWB 4x4 )
I have a set of 15" rally rims but they don't fit over the rear disc brakes, so no plans on using them anytime soon.

Re: Project; Divorce Therapy ( 72 SWB 4x4 )
Thanks...
I've been giving a bit of a push on it lately, but my back limits me as to how much I can do. Getting cortisone shots next Wednesday, hopefully that will give me some relief... Gary
