Re: 1949 Chevy 3600 into a daily driver

I spent a couple hours this afternoon attempting to strip my 1949 GMC 1/2 ton donor axle. Someone really took care of it, the bearings looked great!!



I found 2 castor shims on the drivers side spring mount. That seems odd. None on the other side.





Of course the tie rod ends are seized. I doused with Knocker-Loose to try again another day.



The brakes were in amazing shape. This truck was a driver when it was torn down.
