Though other places I'm at I have shared this. Honestly, had the site not been coming up ISE 500 for me for a while this site was going to be the 1st site to see this video. This is the 1st 73-87 and only site i really put time in. I practically lurk at every other board and never post but this was really for yall 1st, so i apologize for not having it up here.


Anyway.... i am beginning to recondition our paint booth, cleaning the windows, pits, walls. Familiarizing myself with stuff and getting ideas for the angles ima shoot the process from. done a lot of work on the windows though so we'll be able to have a clean shot in of frame work, and paint.

I am putting my dash together and cannot figure out where this part goes?

The front end is too mushy, the rear is too harsh.
Way under-dampened at both ends.

I'm thinking Bilstein for shocks, but am totally up for suggestions there.

Does anyone have a suggestion for front coils, other than OEM??




The best I can come up with is Bilstein's at all four corners with new front coils. Potential to pull a leaf out of the rear leaf-pack.

Open to suggestions.




Be safe

Jeremy

Can we unlock this thread so I can get rid of the Photobucket watermark?

http://forum.73-87chevytrucks.com/smforum/index.php?topic=31594.0

I promise I searched this section prior to asking 

I got as far as trying to get out the pivot bushing/posts/pin and no go.

Saw a youtube vid of a guy using a bolt with a nut/washer/socket that he used to pull out the pin.

Mine stripped out the nut, think I need a hardened bolt and nut. Can't believe they used such a small thread...

I thought I saw a thread by bd on digging into the steering column but can't find it.

TIA for your help, JP
