Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
What about factory Imp SS, Caddilac or f-body flex lines (78~81 trans-am)?

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
Well, both rear calipers are on, but I'm still waiting for one ebrake cable...
I re-configured my rear shocks to allow full rear travel without shock limitations. More detail on that here. Here's the result: ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
No flex lines yet. I'm going to install the disc/disc prop valve bleed the brakes and drive it to be sure there are no other issue to be resolved first. Also, to be honest, I want to see how much movement we're talking about here. I'm sure the flex lines are ultimately the right thing to do, but I need to be fully convinced

Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*
Love the build. I was wondering what you were going to do next. You could have 12'' of snow and 28 degrees as your highest temp for two weeks!

Subscribed.....
![]() I might have missed it, but what sort of latching mechanism will you be using for the rear tailgate now? It seems a shame to cut a hole for a center-mounted one now that you've got that area so nice and smooth... perhaps a set of side-mounted ones? Will you use the stock release button somehow or go with a solenoid or cable actuated dealio??? Awe-inspiring build.... I'm getting impure thoughts about my own '72 Burb now. ![]()
