Re: 68 long bed Chevy
Got some more work done. After getting the frame cleaned up I painted it with Eastwood Rust encapsulater then topped that with Eastwood chassis black satin. Next step was to install the c notch. I cut out for the notch as well as welded in some 4” pipe in the trailing arm crossmember for the exhaust to run through. I am doing air ride but I don’t want to cut the bed so I decided to go with Deadend Garage stuff. Very good quality and great communication to answer any questions I have. Next step will be getting the rearend refreshed and back under the frame.

Re: 68 long bed Chevy
Frame looks good! I like the exhaust passages a lot. That might be something I have to do at some point. I hate how my exhaust runs under below the frame

Installed a Yukon Duragrip and new 5 lug moser axles along with all new bearings and seals. After that installed Deadens garage panhard kit and rear shock relocators.
