Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
I haven't done anything about the wheels yet but I do plan to run a c-30 drop spindle. I will prob run 73-87 drop spindles, ball joints and brakes.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Well guys... I finally finished stripping down the old frame. Then Mario another board member drove all the way down here from Canada in his awesome patina'd suburban! Thanks Mario I hope you make good use of the frame!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
And I thought you guys coming up to Indiana for a frame was a long road trip. Always great to see parts get a good home and helping someone with their project.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Lol yeah that was a long drive, I couldn't imagine driving the 12+ hours one way that Mario and his family made. But they made a long weekend out of it and it was Mario's son's birthday. So they celebrated and went to some caves and things.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Did you get any of it aired out ? I never took any myself.
We made it all the way back to Ontario without a problem. I am going to have to get a build thread started for this chassis. I wish we could have stayed longer that trip was to short.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
Hey guys sorry I haven't posted any progress pics. I have got some work done, I mocked up the rear end and tacked it in place but I have an issue. When I raise the rear end up in the notch (aired out) the rear end is forward in the notch. The 4 link kit for the 67-72 trucks requires the 4 link bars to be 23.5" center of bolt hole to center of bolt hole and I know I have the notches located right. I'm just not sure what the issue is or if its an issue at all. I have a call in to PB so I'll see what they say. I guess I could mock up a bed side and see if the wheel is centered. Any thoughts guys?
And here are some pics with the rear end raised up in the notch.
