Thank you!! I have had people argue with me that my truck does not have a/c I have to go a point it out to them...
I used the pulley/bracket kit from March Pulleys..checkout the pict below and you can see how it is positioned if you have any questions let me know..

You remember the part # for that March Pulley system?

I like it a lot since it does not have the A/C compressor high in the air like other kits I've seen.

Thanks Al!!

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

Sunday morning not much going on and my little son say daddy "truck" and goes towards the garage so I said let's go for a ride little man. so away we went just riding around no destination we get in and put his car seat in and away we go little man did not even last twenty minutes before he passed out everytime we get in the truck that boy just loves to be in the truck he does not act up just chills and speaks his language . There is no greater feeling than a dad and his boy in a truck!!!

It was a real rainy summer it rained every single day....If I get caught in the rain no big deal but if when I am leaving home is raining she is not coming out...

I am definetly going to have to bag this truck sooner or later it is just trying to find the time and motivation to do so. I looked at it yesterday really good on a flat surface and for some reason it is just not low enough specially the rear, I know I bought the tires one size bigger than what everyone uses and the tire is just under the bed panel.

Re: Al's 71C10 Rebuild

That is funny!.. Are you planning on lowering your truck a li-bit more? What is the offset of your rear wheels? I dont think a 295 would rub with a 7-8 inch rear drop... That also depends on your rear wheel offset of course...

Juanito I am planning on slamming it without having to take the inner fenders off....Giving air ride serious consideration just being cheap $$$ and lazy

Once I pull the trigger whenever that is the wheels are going bye bye and I am putting new wheels 20/22's will see. I have been itching for something else like a 69-72 camaro being that my brother in law and my best friends have serious camaros I kind of been wanting to jump on the band wagon.;..
