[project 67 sub]

its official, just paid for my slosh tubz (thanks Mike Losh), now i gotta wait for them arive and for me to get home so i can install them along with a bunch of other goodies i got waiting.... its also official that im the second burb to run a set of them, Dennis Bruin is #1. and both burbs are also in sunny So. Cal. which in my book is also a plus

She's looking awesome! Nicely done! How hard was it swapping out the trailing arm cross member with the body still on the frame? I'll be tackling this also in the next few weeks, and I guess I'm more curious what worked best for you in removing the top rivets. Any tricks or tips you can throw my way?

By the way, I'm sure you've probably already tightened it already, but in case you haven't, heads-up on the trailing arm cross member bolt still hanging down in your first pic. Only saying since I've overlooked many bolts in years past, and since this one is in storage, didn't want to take the chance of you forgetting about it when you get started back on her.
