If your talking about the bottom the bolt goes through the trailing arm and on the top I used the cup that came with the bag. Theres a little double sided bolt that bolts through the same hole as the spring..

WOW is about all I can say. I've got a 63 Burb coming my way. I wish I had your talent and space to work it like this. I can't wait to see how it finishes out. Enjoy your vacation!

Re: 66 suburban build

Sure is looking good !
I am guessing I have to order sanding block off line, because I keep looking for them at parts stores, and I never can find them.
