Re: MY build thread...
Well guys guess my rear end ate something it didn't like and something vacated the rear end just above the bolt on the run gear side. When I got to the show and backed in it popped then started leaking. She got a ride home on a trailer but it pulled onto it on its own... Here's one pic I will get more when I get the cover off... Karma strikes again!

Re: MY build thread...
Ring gear broke sooooo. Do I stay 3.73 or step up to 4.11? Either way I'm putting a new gear in with bearings!!!

Re: MY build thread...
Ouch !!
Any ideas what caused that to happen? And I shudder to think what you may have done to put yourself in Karma's cross hairs.....

Re: MY build thread...
Well guys rearend is still in working order. I guess the PO had the cover off and removed the gear tooth when the motor broke... I'm putting in my fuel tank (17 gallon) lmc tank and starting on the rest of the exhaust. And while I waited I cleaned up some stuff that hasn't been on the truck in 8 years... Finished bodyworking the inner fenders because I will need them also soon...... Ill post pics tomorrow from computer because my phone won't let me!

Re: MY build thread...
Well guys karma strikes again! My power steering box is leaking again! So time for a new!!! Anyone know what all years fit with captain fab plates... I have a 72 box now but I think the shaft is scored up causing it to leak.. If I could post pics I'd show you my next venture is to cut my freshly varnished wood that I have to cut more for tire clearance...

 http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...power+steering ^^^According to post #22, a P/S gear box from '69-87 will work. Just keep in mind that they switched to metric in 1980 I think. I bought a new Fenco gear box for mine from Advance Auto. I also used one for a '72. If you use online discount codes, you could knock a decent chunk off the price!

Re: MY build thread...
Worked on the ls a bit and found out I should have the heads checked for cracks because the 706 castings are prone to do so!

Re: MY build thread...
Well guys to update... Bed wood is done! Rear tires are on and awaiting new beauty rings, and new used power steering box (thanks Randy aka teeitup) installed and leak free!!! No it's time to save some money for a bit and get the exhaust done next... Backed it out of the garage today and I was a little worried about going from a 10" wide tire to an 8" tire but I think it will be good... Low milage tires equal soft tread so I will see what it does on the road soon!

Re: MY build thread...
Well guys I'm not very happy at all... I've been through two starters now this year, one broke nose cone one split bendix gear and now when the last one came apart it destroyed my SFI flywheel costing me $100 for the flywheel and a $60 difference for a new mini starter!!! I even used the brace on the first one and still broke... Wish I could just afford to go buy a turn key motor and drop it in....
