Cool! Looks like a nice load! It'll help make steering easier.

Got a over load of pictures for you guys. Swapped the trannys, the main bearing in the trans was toast along with the rear pilot bushing.

Re: 1960 GMC K1000 4x4

so i had a near miss today, the freeway decided to stop in front of me i got into a little bit of a fish tail slide from making the breaks lock. I nearly hit a car in the slide next to me i let off and started re breaking all while i was head checking and starting to move over. i was not sending my motor into the back of a stopped car. lucky the lady in the lane i was taking seen me sliding and was able to back off so i didn't have to hit her i got past the guy in front of me by the skin of my teeth ether way. As i get slowed down and moved back over into the stopped or now slow lane i was in i'm now pumping with adrenalin laughing my ass off the lady that let me over passes i give her a thumbs up laughing and she rolls her eyes and drives of haha!

Re: 1960 GMC K1000 4x4

If only you had video of that and could look back and see the whole thing, would be so interesting. So brake upgrade time or what.
