Re: Lots of work to do.
If the truck doesn't ride, steer, and brake like new, I'm selling it.

Re: Lots of work to do.
I hope you ordered all your ECE stuff as package deals. I got just about everything you did but I only had to order about 4-5 "kits" to get it all.
I'm still waiting on my drop spindles, shock mount relocator and the proportioning valve to replace the damaged one I received. They should be here any day now...and then the work starts.

Re: Lots of work to do.
Well after MANY years and a whole lot of work...
Here is how she sits and whats been done: Installed everything listed above but have yet to do the front sway bar. Had a 72 Cheyenne LWB that was useless but for some donor parts listed below. Corvette rallys New Tires New gorilla acorn black lug nuts Rebuilt rear drums and A LOT of brake tuning to get pedal and stopping power dialed in. Trimmed bump stops (Helps with ride as after drop I only had about 3" of suspension travel. Now I have 4.5ish hahaha) Alignment Installed rear end out of donor 72 which is POSI but needs rebuild Used front LCAs from same donor 72 which has provisions for sway bar from factory Painted/POR15 various suspension/brake components. New battery New starter New correct heads with steam holes for SB 400 motor(Engine came out of a 73 Caprice) Plug wires and plugs New alternator New water pump New exhaust and Sanderson headers New transmission output shaft seal Installed spot light from donor 72 which was some kind of forest ranger truck Installed black tilt column from donor 72
