Forgot about the power disc brake swap. Can't wait to try out mine once it's back on the road; I'm sure it's a nice difference!

and thanks for the pics...Another cool truck!

Thanks! I was hoping those were 4x4 6 luggers. I like the look...one of my favorite trucks on the board.

Thank you so much bgbchevy, seeing that you have been a member here for a dozen years and being one of your favorites means a lot.

**MisterC** · 08-12-2013, 09:32 PM

No hang on to it. Not sure if I'm going to make it. Have 2 girls to deliver to college on Saturday and I'm not sure which one I'm taking, if either. If I can get out of it, I'll be there. I've got a couple of items on my "Swap Meet" list that I'm still on the hunt for.

Also, I went and lost a couple of the tabs that hold the jack handle spring down while I was "cleaning" the garage. Man, I really need to get more organized.

Not a bad looking truck Tony and I'm glad you still have your eye peeled because you know I'm always on the hunt

but I rather have more of a stocker (I think). Keep looking if you don't mind my "Craig's list junkie" friend.

I have been thinking the same, but I don't want to change the name of this thread.

Thank you Chris.

NEWFISHER · 09-22-2013, 07:53 PM

Looks great!
Are there any differences in the stock wheels vs the 1970 front wheels on the front side for cap mounting or visual offset?
who did you use for the power disc set up?
did you use a dropped style rear crossmember with the 5"' drop?

Hey buddy, the caps went on the front without a hitch

and all the disc brake/lowering components were "CPP" products including the rear, which are only dropped 5" coils (no C notch needed), it rides fantastic and brakes like a dream!!!!

New moldings going on this week!!!!!
