Re: Bagged 65 c10. AKA the periwinkle pile
Some more updates. Got the new upper links in for the four link. I started to fab up a crossmember to mount the links out of 2x4 tubing 3/16" wall
Decided to do a driveshaft hoop instead of step notching over the drive shaft. Made the hoop out of some scrap plate and a piece of pipe from a bag cup
Finish welded off the truck, made some gussets to compliment the trans crossmember
Started building perches to mount the front of the lower links. All 1/4" plate
Two gussets added on the underside and also boxed the rod end tabs. Finished pair
Then i welded the perches on and added a top gusset that extends all the way out above the link mounting point. It also flows into the crossmember smoothly and again compliments the gussets on the trans/4 link crossmembers. Excuse the screw drivers haha. We need two more bolts
