Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
I like em, I had an unexpected meeting out of town yesterday but I have yours boxed up and in my truck I will get them out today, I forgot how heavy these things were. I will send you info later today on shipment.
Thanks Dave

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
Have you decided if you are going to run front inner fenders? If so, what are you planning on using?
BTW, what tires are you running? Sizes?

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
i bought some grant custom tubs with one side welded up, my plan is to weld them into the factory fenders where they will still bolt in ?? i will have to get it mocked up to see if it looks ok ,just trying to get it setting right before i know how to set up my inner fenders

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
I don't know how much you are planning on driving the truck but you may reconsider the air-zeniths. I know ALOT of people have had serious issues with complete failure within 6 months of use, even the redesigned compressors have still had issues. Viairs are not as attractive as the air-zeniths but have a much more reliable track record, also consider engine driven compressor setups, when maintained properly they are nearly bulletproof as well.
On another note the tie-rod notches look stellar and that crossmember looks amazing installed. great job so far, can't wait to see how it progresses! |

Old Air Zeniths were prown to problems. The newest ones that came out are running smoothly without any hickups so far from what I have heard.

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
i have an air zenith but switched back to viair.. i love my dual viair setup.. my air zenith went out in a few months after i got it and when i got it back it was slower than before.. new ones are supposed to be badass but people will always have something bad to say about either

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
a little progress last night , made some templates for the firewall, bolted the front sheet metal back on to see how much fender to cut out and to get ready for my hood hinges my hinges and 4link should be here on friday thanks PORTERBUILT. here are pics of my inner fenders with my idea basically stick them up through the hole and weld them in ...it sounds pretty simple i hope it turns out that way!!

Re: 67cheby DM 3.2 install, W/PB 4link, PB hood hinges
front tires are 255-45-20, i think today we are going to cut out the fender metal and set the front end down .. i think i am going to have to switch to a 255-40-20 it is one inch shorter the height is 28.1 on the 255-40. the wheel are as close as i can figure 20x9 with 6.5 back space . i am trying to measure them with the tire on.
