Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Why you say what?! Lol. What part is shocking.
The bridge is. I cut about 1/4 inch off each end of the bridge tubes were they we're welded. If your interested just give me a call and we can talk about it. It's still very usable with some small mounting plates on it. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Well to be honest I just didn't like it. Nate makes a nice product and I really wanted it and was all gun ho about going all porter. Durring the install and after I just was not feeling it. Trying to build something different. Seems like in the last year a ton of trucks have dm's installed and I wanted set my truck appart.
I talked to Justin and really liked what they were doing over there. The rest is history. I've ordered the rest of Scott's susp parts. I like it all to match. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
here are some pictures. The rear is installed. I have to flip the frame to weld the bottom of the front brackets. Ill paint the parts and the frame within the next few days. Then push her back into the garage to mount the body back on.
More to come soon guys!! I have PB hood hinges, brake lines, and some air lines to install. oh and some wiring..... ok a lot of wires... lol. Sure wish I had a friend who likes to do wires.... hint, hint..... ![]() you know who you are.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Thanks guys I appreciate it. I'll keep at it to get this bad boy together a little quicker. My last piece is on its way from Scott's.
Should I put my drive train in while the frame is out? Set the engine trans, drive shaft and exhaust? What do you think? What would you do? Posted via Mobile Device

That sounds like a good idea. I'm sure I'll at least get most of that list installed. Thanks

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Just curious why the 4-link is inside the frame rails?
Running a super wide wheel/tire combo?

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Well a couple of reasons. The way I plan on running my exhaust will go right through the frame about a foot before the frame kicks up in the rear.
I would like to at some point go with a wider tire wheel combo in te rear. I am sure it won't be a 14 incher but with the exhaust going back there every inch counts. I also spoke with several guys and fabricators here in town. They said they like the links inside the frame for ride quality. That's why I went with an in the frame set up.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Well put in a few hours today trying to get this phase wrapped up. Final welded in all the brackets and got it all painted. I'll be putting it back together the next few days. I'll post up some pics when I can.
