Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Got my rear suspension mocked up and wheelbase established. I just need to drill my holes to bolt the hangers on the frame for now. I will pull this bed off and do the drilling. Next up will be to put together my nicer bed and get it fit on the frame.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
For my frame, I decided to use the 1973+ (K10-K20) spring hangers. This allows me to possibly fit shocks between my frame and leaf springs. They are 5 1/2 " to the edge of the leaf springs vs. the 4 1/2" that a 67-72 hanger or 77+ K30 hanger. They are also quite beefy compared to our leaf hangers.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Well, she rolls! Big step for me to get it turned around to finish the other side. Still got to finish the floor by the inner rocker and finalize the guts on my 4th door.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Looks great! Keep at it and it will be done one day. What's the plan for interior? I think tuck and roll leather would look killer

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Figuring out my gas tank and support. Figured why reinvent the wheel. Took an old transfer case xmember and flip it upside down. It will clear the diff that way and give me something to bolt the tank to. It will also be something to hide airlines or fuel lines if need be.

Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax
Well, still plugging away. Got the passenger almost buttoned up and have the bed lowered. Body lines are really close to being on. Some minor finesse and it should be there. Going to the salvage yard this weekend, and hope to get a bedside filler while up there.
