Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey mike
Sorry been coaching 2 football teams and my older son moved to Montana for college. So I have not had any free time. The calipers are 80-85 caddy rears. I don't recall the part numbers. I bought them off eBay actually. The best price I could find. 7dee2 has the link he just posted about the custom cables I had made. I am sure it is back in My build also. Hope this helps. I will be back on the truck this winter. I ordered new body mounts and will coating under the cab and then get the cab on the frame.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
OK, mines a K20 so probably have to use a different bracket and rotors. Thanks!

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey Guys , I started working on the body mounts and ordered new front body mounts for the 68 front radiator support. The problem is the frame is a 70. So the hole in the frame mounts are large for the 69-72 style bushings, too large for the 67-68.
Do I have to cut down the 69-72 bushing to the same thickness as the 67-68 thickness ?

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I'd call the vendor and see if the bushing kit is suppose to be different and is it just the hole diameter, i assumed they were the same....

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
This is a picture of the driverside radiator support mount. The hole size is larger than the 67-68 frame so the 67-68 bolts and washers don't fit. Does anyone know if the 69-72 mount is located at a different height than on a 67-68 frame? or is the radiator support stamped differently at the bottom of the radiator support?

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I can tell you the poly replacements we used spaced the core support a little higher than the original 2wd version we removed (all 72 rubber stuff). This set our shroud a tade higher but still cleared our fan. Ended up shimming the front cab mounts to make everything come back in line. Worked out OK because we needed this to help clear the transfer case anyway. I'd leave it high till you can mockup everything up on your frame, cuz you can always shave um later. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=365 BTW we might have to add even more cab mount shims to allow for TC flex before it's all done?

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey Brett
Thanks for the info... I seen that post from you and agree about the TC room. I am using a 68 frontend on a 70 k20 frame and was wondering if I can use 69-72 bushings. On hulk JR it has a 68 frame and front end I used 69-72 bushing kit and had to raise the cab 1/2" in the front and 1/4" at the rear of the cab to get it right.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I had a chance to meet with my paint and body guy last night to discuss getting the cab to his shop to start the body work and get the underfloor and firewall sprayed so I could get it on the frame. He told me that he should only have it for about a month as he didn't want it in the shop longer than that. I told him as long as it was right. Keep you posted!
I am thinking about Big Blue Pearl code 930849 (its what I have on my 2014 Harley Street Glide)

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
We now have an A/C Cab.
I was able to spend some time cutting in and test fitting the a/c ducts. I am not happy with the center ductwork fitment. The chrome grill fits it's the black abs plastic duct that fits behind the dash. I may get out the heat gun and reshape it.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Driver door gap looks pretty good.... even the window frame looks good. still needs a little adjusting but I think it is pretty good.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Now the Passenger side not so good as far as the window frame.
Any ideas??? I cant really move the door back any as i think it maybe to close to the back part of the cab. The window frame is very close to the drip rail of the cab. AGAIN ANY IDEAS??? Bend the door window frame in????

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
I don't know how the pros do it, but I had to adjust my window frames by placing a 2x4 in and closing the door on it. Bent the tops out like a champ, but mine were closer to the jamb than the opposite way. They actually move easier than I anticipated.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Thanks for the info. I thought about placing a 2x4 across the the door on the inside and placing another in from the outside of the window and push the top frame towards the cab.
Trying not to bend the inner door.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Mine are both closer (in more) at the top, but the door shells aligned with the cab and front fenders fine, been kinda afrade to try an "adjustment" so I await your results. I know not much help, sorry.

Re: Project 68 k10 LWB..aka "The Hulk"
Hey Mike. I talked to my body guy and he said don't do anything until the cab is on the actual frame with new bushings and tightened down. Right know it is on the rotisserie.
He said he will need the cab in about 2 weeks be it will be ready to put on the frame in 30 days as he doesn't want it sitting around. Works for me.
