Finally putting a newer front axle on my 61 4x4, with power disc brakes and power steering. Should drive like a new truck, well almost new!! Here are a few pics. The one pic with the pin and bushing is a little wore out, don't yall think?
Thanks! I've been doing alot of research before I decided to do it. But nows the time. The drum brakes where getting a little rough. It will be so nice to have power disc on this old truck!!
Your 61 will drive like a new one,wish I could of come down to help you out that will be worth all the hard work after your done.
Wish I could,but they wont let me take off work ,not that far of drive only 12hours ..wish we did live closer.
I'm getting my new shackles, bushings and pins in today. Got them from our host, I checked around they have some great prices. Should get the suspension back on today. I'll post pics later today when and if I get done.
Classic Prarts of America prices are resonable as most of their compation.Good Luck 62 short step,try stay cool the tempatures outside are almost unbareable to work in without water breaks. In around 100 degress here.
Yea, its not too cool around here either!! 98 to 100 degrees here to. The humidity is terrible. Well I got my parts yesterday, work on it till about 6:30 last night then I gave up till Saturday. I'm going to finish the suspension early Saturday morning when its a little cooler!!! Later, Jeremy.
