Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
I want to thank Nate for his great customer service. Looks like my motor mounts are the wrong ones and new ones are on the way. Should be an easy fix and I can breathe easy now

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Got a little work done today. Painted up my Porterbuilt Control Arms and upper shafts. I decided to just scuff and clear the shafts to break up all the black. Then I removed the rear most crossmember and installed and painted the porterbuilt tubular crossmember. Tomorrow I plan to put my ball joints in and bolt on my control arms and reinstall my brakes.

Looks great!
Don't forget to paint the balljoints. They rust like crazy after time.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Got the control arms, brakes and shocks bolted back on today. Still have to drill out the tie rod hole in the spindles before I install the rack n pinion. Also have to reinstall the sway bar. I'll get those done when I put the motor mounts in.

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
I also decided to try on one of my front wheels just to make sure it fits before I get the tires mounted. I'm glad I decided to keep them, they look awesome

Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB
Love those wheels man - they're sick!! They look so good I didn't even notice the brake calipers.
Are you going to drill those holes in the spindles yourself? Whose spindles did you use?
