Re: 72 Swb starting from the bottom
Been working on the truck here and there. Still working on the bedsides. About finished up with them. I raised the tubs and welded in new nuts. Also made “inner” tubs which will be getting welded into the bedsides next.
Also made some progress on the rear brakes. Ended up having to use rear rotors from a hellcat because they have more of an offset which allowed more caliper to wheel clearance. The diameter and thickness is the same as the camaro so no issues with the caliper. Did some work to the axles including redrilling them and pressing in longer studs. Also had to redrill the rotors. I 3d printed some mock-up brackets for the calipers and got them pretty much spot on. Just need to order some material to get them made.
