Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
When I was doing the hoses for my truck, I noticed that KRC says to only use hose rated to 2,250psi, I didn't realize it had to be that high!
Went down to my local hydraulic shop and a buddy of mine fixed me up. He made up some crimped fittings and hose. It's not as perty as yours is going to be though!

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
Put the rear end on jack stands, put a chalk mark on the drive shaft and the tire. Spin the tire one revolution and count how many times the drive shaft turns using the chalk as a reference. This number is a rough estimate of what gear you have.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I like your shorty step side. I also board here in Fl. on the west coast call nature coast. I am sure that you are going to make this truck a show stopper. I will be following your build.

![]() ![]() I agree. I often think about having a new camaro, but I wouldn't be happy. There are hundreds of them running around here, but just a few 67-72 C10s! Thanks for the compliment!

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I'll have to third the comment. I have always had a thing for the GNs. But given the option between YOUR stepside and that GN I'd choose your stepper. Very sweet

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I have the "waiting for a shipment from CPP" blues... I'd love to have my rear disc brake kit so I can install the new posi rear-end. Good news is, tomorrow is going to be a beautiful day to drive my truck to work!

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"
I found that when I need cpp stuff I get them from Scott's. he goes down there picks up the parts then ships them. I had my nova front and rear susp in 5 days!! I waited 5 weeks for my cpp drive shaft. Lol
