Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
I was going to install it last night but there were a lot of obstacles. My garage is a mess, still waiting on my diff carrier to come in off of back order, and still waiting on parts back from the powder coater.

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
Got the relocated shocks installed. One word of advice; If you decide to install these, throw out the instructions and pm me. I will show you an easier way to install them.

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
Got bored last night on account that I STILL have no diff carrier. (I have it on good authority that it shipped out on Friday though.) So, I took some random pictures, enjoy!

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
Need som help here guys, I have only attempted doing this once before and it turned out horribly. From what I see online it looks like this is considered acceptable.
This is the drive side And this is the coast side

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
Ok, I got my answer, didn't have enough backlash.
So, it's time for another poll; Which diff cover to use? B&M cover Trans-Dapt cover Now, the B&M cover serves an actual purpose with the bearing cap supports where as the Trans-Dapt cover will go much better with the look of the truck. What do you think?

Re: 71' (gonna be) a one of a kind custom
I think the B&M cover looks really cool and the fact that it has the bearing support is a bonus. You could always polish or add an accent color to the edges of the fins to really make it pop. Maybe paint the cover black and do the edges of the fins in the same blue that your chassis is? Just an idea...
