Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
well I got my butt in the garage today and started removing, cutting, grinding off all the stuff in my way to start bolting my rear stuff on. I do have a question on removing the rear wheel tubs. To remove them am I going to have to cut them out? I removed all the bolts around the base of the tub but I only see a seam that is sealed that runs the length of the tub. Is that were it is mounted by? Any removal ideas? I have pics that I will post up tomorrow I just want to clean up the mess so I can snap some photos.
Thanks guys. Juan

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
cool...glad you're working on it. I believe there is a seam sealer in between that's holding them together but they come apart...the trucks are like that.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
Looks like the inner skin of the wheel well and the quarter panel join together. I wonder what that cut will look like..... And the fitment of the tub will fit in there.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
keV yes I got the pb rear kit with shock bar, panhard, bridge and trailing arms. I had a sectioned front crossmember that I was going to sell. I was planing on running a dm but now I'm not sure. I will be installing the sectioned crossmember and just trim down my spring cups. Let's see were that gets me.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
here are a few pics of some of the progress. I have removed everything that will be in my way. I took it all out from the trans to the rear bumper. I left the crossmember thats infront of the gas tank and the one behind it.

Re: 68 Burb... here we go!!
ok well I have been working on it for the last couple of days. If I could go back to when I ordered the stuff I would have gotten the bolt in kit. Main reason I did not was Nate said I would have to cut more of my floor out and I did not want to... well... that plan went to pot. I got 90% of it done. I will be placing the rear end in place with the PB arms so I can line up and weld my bag plates on the rear end. I am still trying to figure out the panhard bar mount that welds on to the frame... Ill get it. Here are some pics of what has been done this weekend. I hope to have it rolling by the end of the year.... I guess time will tell. Enjoy.
