Spring build

Got the first of the parts for the spring build today.
Nothing too exciting but it's a start.

Re: Spring build

Also got the led taillights from Early Classic.
No pics because I put them on too quick.
They passed the cop test on the way home from work too.

I am still wating on the proportion valve.
I would like to say GMC Pauls has GREAT service. Since I was gone all weekend I left a note for Fed Ex so they wouldn't leave the parts while I was gone. GMC Pauls Called me monday and said they checked the tracking numbers and seen the hold on them and they would take care of getting them redelivered. I got a call first thing yesterday from Fed Ex telling me they were going to redeliver. What more can you ask for?

Re: Spring build

Since Thursday I got the rear springs and adj track bar on. I also painted the rear drums. I wanted to start on the front today but that track bar refused to come out. It took more than a few sawazall blades to persuade it in the right direction.

It's sitting Cali style. I'll get a few pics of the carnage and truck in the morning before I start on the drop conversion for the front.
