...thanks for sharing the update. Your making more progress than some of us but hey, spring time is coming!
Thanks for the reply

Starting on the draglink last night...got it all striped of its old guts...found out both pivot balls were beat up pretty bad...put an order in for new ones from Jim Carter truck parts...tonight I am thinking trying to pull the pitman arm off and get the old ball out and then scratch my head on the other steering arm side of things...

I bought the tires (shoes you called them) back in December from a tires-easy on EBAY...they are all weather Coopers...215/75/15's put them one some stock 1966 Chevy truck wheels ($100.00 for the set)...
seen here on the rear end of things....

As always...cant wait to get it rolling again...ADHD is not a fun thing with an old truck rebuild...
