Re: New to me 1972 K5

Not much of an update. Been looking at brake lines from the MC to the Wilwood proportioning valve. Test fit the -6 AN fitting on the Hydroboost and the power steering box. Dropped off some aluminum and AN fittings with a friend to have him make me a custom power steering reservior.

I had the Dana 60 broke down and hot tanked to get the 5 pounds of mud and dirt out of the tubes. New seals and pinion nut on the yoke. I'll throw a coat of paint on it and start assembly.

I plan to upgrade and add another set of seals to keep dirt, water and mud out of the tubes... I can't believe they dont have a seal from the factory...
This is what I found... Seals-It EAS2-05



Silcone the seal in place and fill the center with grease. Keeps water and dirt out of the tube....
