Re: My '62 GMC Suburban is on it way !!

I took my stock wheels to the shop and busted out my old COATS tire machine ... I've had this old thing for like 25 years ... the air cylnder is getting sluggish, but still works for ol school wheels ... I had some old bias plys laying around. 600-15's , good tread, but cracked. Perfect rollers for now ...

The drums and rear shoes were gone...both sides...the shocks were disconnected at the bottom, and swung upward. Probably because they were bottoming out, due to the springs behind heated for days. There is some kind of bag in there too ... (trailing arm previously bent )
