That's an Alan Grove bracket. I got one with my Vintage Air set-up.

Re: Project: 65 C-10

Just picked up new tires the other day so i can finish front inner fenders and maybe get my hood on it before this year. Since winter I have gotten some little things done. I will get pics up soon.

Re: Project: 65 C-10

I really need to update this thread. I have done a lot of work to the truck over the winter.
The control arms are stock ones from a 1987 chevy truck for the disc brakes and 5 lug.
The compressor bracket is for a sanden compressor. Alan grove bracket. http://www.alangrovecomponents.com/S..._Long_Pump.htm That will give you what you are looking for. Engine driven is so much nicer than electric.

I appreciate the interest guys..

Re: Project: 65 C-10

What did you have to do to the sanden to get it to work as an EDC?

Re: Project: 65 C-10

Hey I am doing a similar drop to my 65 long bed 3/4 ton with a granny trany. I was wondering if you changed the motor mounts and if so what did you use?

Re: Project: 65 C-10

WOW i havent been on here in awhile.. sorry guys.. i will def get some updated pictures for you all soon

SMBrouss- you have to get fittings that switch from AC to pipe thread. Also a stainless leader hose works great for the heat reasons. I also put a relief check valve on my tank right after the oil/water seperater. This relieves the pressure between the compressor and the tank so the compressor is not holding all of the pressure against itself.

Zombie- yes i built my own motor mounts to drop it down to the x-member closer to clear my distributer with the stock firewall.
