Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
Looks great! I have one of the Mac's tie downs bridges and love it. Beats what i've used for years that always gets into the firewall.
Did you find a home for your stock intake? |

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
The center section of the frame will definitely be stiff now.
Do you plan on installing a rear sway bar? |

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
Did a little more work on the rack and pinion install..
  Turned out nice. I still have to do a little more work to finish up that. I got the motor in (hopefully for the last time).

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
Thanks guys. I ordered a bunch of exhaust pieces and they should be in today. Going to start mocking up the exhaust this week. All the pieces are stainless and i am going to get them jet coated the same color as the headers when i am done. Going to try and keep it all tucked in the frame.

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
So let the madness begin.... I ordered some parts i thought i would need to get started. I can already tell i will need more. I have never done this before but should be interesting. Going to try and keep it tight up in the frame rails.

Re: Roushinator's 72 C10 Stepside Restore/Build
Personally i think this thread deserves an ongoing and updated parts list so rookies like me can put 2 and 2 together and figure out how to build one of these things! LOL!
Lets just say this would be a go to thread for tho's of us that need more than pictures. Awesome work!
