Re: Project Simple Green - Lucille - 1967 C10 Porterbuilt/AccuAir
Appears to have been a workhorse back in the day. Won't be needing the spare or overload spring anymore.
![]() ![]() Time to get to the rear suspension! Porterbuilt Stage 2 Basic (bolt-in notch, adjustable panhard bar, bags, cups, rear crossmember). Too sweet of a view, always good to step back and soak up a little sense of accomplishment (yeah taking the bed off is a milestone!). ![]() Removing Old Rivets with an Air Chisel (best method by far IMO). Thanks to Porterbuilt for designing things such that they re-use old rivet holes! ![]()

Re: Project Simple Green - Lucille - 1967 C10 Porterbuilt/AccuAir
Notch and Crossmember Installed (minus lower shock mount and Panhard Bar):
![]() ![]() Rear Bag Installation: Due to the fittings that came with my PBFab/AccuAir package I had to modify the cups slightly. ![]() ![]() BEFORE Porterbuilt Tank/Compressor Mount: ![]() ![]() AFTER Porterbuilt Tank/Compressor Mount: (Temp Rear Air Plumbing sticking through in this shot. Hard to find a quick-connect schrader valve set-up. GET A COUPLE FROM AMAZON.com in advance and save yourself from some local begging which is what my Friday afternoon consisted of) ![]() Rear Done (Minus Lower Shock Bar): ![]() Stage 2 Getting DOWWWWN! No bump stops, cheating a little!! I dont mind showing off my Year of Manufacturer Plate. SCDMV was awesome to deal with. I literally had the lady at the DMV on the phone while I was browsing eBay deciding which vintage plates I could use. I'd say "what about this?" and she'd yay or nay it. Pretty cool process. ![]()

Re: Project Simple Green - Lucille - 1967 C10 Porterbuilt/AccuAir
Front Bag Installation:
Just remove the u-bolts holding the inner shaft of the lower control arm, made it really easy. ![]() ![]() Go ahead and remove the lower bump stops, they will contact the bag! Got them off pretty easily with the air chisel after drilling the spot welds. ![]() ![]() Shock mounted: ![]() Front Aired Out: ![]() Ready to go get the exhaust on!
