on friday i replaced the right side rocker, when i cut it open i found out why it was rotted


then yesturday i replaced the doors with my rust free ones, i got tired of looking at my rusty fenders, and got tired of the tires rubbing em, so out came the sawzall and angle grinder

Well I had a broken leaf spring on each side



So removed the broken leaf, and through in a complete 3 pack from a 2000 Chevy Tahoe I was scrapping. After installing em the 2 factory leafs got rearched because of the Tahoe springs, plus essentially I added 2 springs so I got about 2"of lift out of it, plus it rides WAY better

didn't get a whole lot done since I need to order different head gaskets,but I did install frost plugs, oil pump and pickup tube, made sure the cam gear bolt was torqued, and installed the crank seal in the timing cover

lower end


and of course I had to mock it all up :biggrin:



and tucked away for the night
