Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"

Need to thank all of you that have been along for this ride. I learned a lot about these truck with this first one, and I suspect I will learn a lot more with the next one. As soon as I get the deal finalized and the truck on it's way here I will start another build thread. So, this isn't the end of the line, we're just switching trains.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"

One pic of the new project until I decide on a name for the thread...

Thanks to jasonvw for a great deal on a super nice truck, we can't wait for it to get it here.

**UPDATE** This truck turned out to be a rusty worn out POS and jasonvw sold it to me knowing it was a complete misrepresentation.

What happened to the blazer plan? I found one for you if you have room for a second project.

Re: Project "Just an Old Truck"

That's a nice truck.... should be a solid foundation to build on! I saw several pics of it on Instagram. When does it show up? Christmas Eve?

Just about. Should be here by the 20th. Maybe it'll get some PB love down the road. For now we are just going to ride it!

I just looked through the whole build and wow what a cool truck! Any ad ice in the rear disc brake conversion would be appreciated.

The rear disc kit from CPP went together very easy. The things I learned were:
1. Paint everything you want painted BEFORE you install it.
2. Make sure you bend the tabs on the top of the brake pads down to keep the pad from rubbing on the hat portion of the rotor.
3. Install the correct disc/disc proportioning valve.
... and did I mention
4. Paint everything you want painted BEFORE you install it.
