[QUOTE=_Ogre;6148556]i use 7x15 rims up front and 8x15 in back both have 4'' back space
though i would use 4.5 on back, i have less than 1/4'' clearance to the fender on one side
where did you attach the front of the torque arm to?
i used an x-member that you appeared to cut out.
Thanks for the info Ogre. Thanks for the torque arm picture!
The only crossmember I cut out so far was the front one. I haven't attached the torque arm to anything yet.
My truck was originally a long bed. The spacing of the crossmembers is different. The only reason I know is because I looked under the 59 that is on the lift (factory short bed).
Going to fab some crossmembers for the trans, and some motor mounts and will probably add one to mount the torque arm to.
Today I went to my brothers to get help with disassembly (his tools and knowledge) on a tilt wheel.
He also replaced a leaky seal in my A/C system. He's got a Robinair A/C machine that is ....cool
He gave me all the brake lines and fuel lines I need for the truck.
Also something to setup TPI injection and others brands.
He gave me a nice oil cooler with mounting hardware.
Some relays and wiring. A receiver hitch to mount on my 71 (I forgot to load it) .
Caps, rotors, plug wires for my GMC, and the Tahoe.
Tommorow we are going to his work to pickup a welding table before the junkman hauls it off.
I need to go see my brother more often!
