Re: Project "You thought yours was bad!" '78 C10 Stepside
I picked up a new set of shocks while I was in town today. I did some research and found that this particular line of shocks is about 1/2" shorter than most of the aftermarket shocks available, so they should play nicely with the drop. I will be fabricating my own shock extenders for the rear.
Also installed the grille and headlight bezels. I'm loving the look!
I also stumbled across a pretty good deal today. I found a 2000 Suburban that was T-boned very hard on the passenger side. The kicker? It has a brand new GM crate Vortec 350 with 35,000 miles! I paid $500 for the whole thing, hopefully I can part this one out and make my money back as well. I figured this would be a cheaper option versus rebuilding the blown Vortec on my engine stand.
