Re: 64 C10 Stepside "Jaybird"

Thanks guys. It came out alright. I got the passenger side welded in last night. It lined up much better. My first cut was damn near perfect. Instead of using the sheet metal clamps I used the big triangle welding magnets and the made it much easier to lineup up the panel.

Just ordered all my parts for the frontend rebuild and the rest of the cab patch panels I needed. I saved a ton of money buying all my fontend parts from Amazon. All Moog too. The difference between O'riellys and Amazon for all my parts was like $350 difference!

Here is what I bought

upper and lower ball joints
upper and lower control arm shaft assemblies
Inner and outer tie rod ends
rear control arm bushings (polyurethane)
track arm bushings (polyurethane)
Idler arm
Pitman arm

I also bought a new ram jack for my engine hoist since it already failed after only 2 uses and some metal to metal bondo from Evercoat And a 9/16" drill bit for the lower control arm u bolt upgrade.
