update on my 65 stepside
 
Well hello there !
This spring has been a busy one for me. the ole truck is up on stands awating new parts.
First off I went to the gas station and noticed fuel leaking into the cab. :pullinghairout: also when I bought the truck there were no windshield wipers or arms and the drivers side door sagged and the tierod ends were shall we say a little loose so with that I went to LMC truck for my first purchase. The parts arrived :thumbsup: then when I jacked him up I noticed that the drivers frount spring was broke:censored::censored::censored: so now I'm offtomorrow to order new springs upper and lower ball joints shocks rubber stopper bumpers and passenger side break cylinder:banghead: with all that said today I also had the wood for my bed milled out of cider:thumbsup: so thats the story as it stands right now. Feel free to give advice or suggestions:yourock:

Classic Parts of America has a suspension kit for front and rear that's like $720.
Pretty much comes with everything needed. Since you have it apart ya may as well get EVERYTHING you need. Repaint even if you haven't. lol

Yer welcome....on another note I found out that kit is not posted on their website. You have to order their catalog and that shows everything it comes with.
