Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
Yes I did read it, but being temporary does not change the danger it imposes. I am not saying you don't know what you are doing I was simply trying to further what I have seen working with my father over the years.

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
AGAIN .... it was a temporary attachment.
The only danger I see is the fact is a cheap China HF winch. You tell can it is brand new in the pics. I was solo, and needed the burb on the trailer. I've been here for a long time ... ask anyone who has been here that knows my skills .... and they will confirm my fab skills. My tools/equipment/steel at my shop, and I was at home ..... Thanks for your concern, Though.

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
95 thru 97 OBS Ford truck.
This one in particular was a 95 Powerstroke. The ring is for ABS, as these rotors were intended for a newer Chevy truck. Was there anything else you are concerned about ??

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
I apologize as I did not mean to offend you. I was honestly asking because I was not sure if the chain being so vertical prevents it from twisting. Looking back I did not word it very well.
Nice Score on the fenders. |

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
WELL GUYS ... I little more forward progression has been made, with a little change of direction.
I have been swamped for a very long time with the business, and this weekend marks the "start" of my Burban build .... AGAIN ! A longtime friend of mine who lives about 2hrs away, is the kinda friend who is a motivational type, and is always able to light a ![]() He does epoxy floors for a living, and his work placed him close to me this weekend ... So the fun began yesterday afternoon .....

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
As you know, I picked up a 94 LT1 B-body for a drivetrain donor.
After being intrigued with E911managers build thread (SWB on a Caprice Frame) IT WAS A NO BRAINER !! The Burban and B-body share the same wheelbase. Coils, mounted drivetrain, fuel system, P/S, A/C comp., etc .... DONE ! I'd rather fab body mounts instead of drivetrain swap mounts....plus, I can address the underside rot as well .... and lose the X-frame as well

Re: '62 GMC Suburban "Rust"oration, Patina Build.....
Way to go John and friend, Looking good loosing the X-frame is a good way to go. The seats in the Roadmaster / Caprice were comfortable if they are in good shape, Whats the new Name for the burb.....Burnice....Burbmaster, maybe not. Tuned in for this.

I would grab that brake booster before you get rid of the body. That one might work with my booster bracket.
