Re: 1967 C30 dump truck

More pictures from today.

The first picture is Todd working.

The third picture shows the power steering bracket, yes, it's rope. The brackets were supposed to get here today but they were a no show.

Fourth picture is the hydro boost setup.


Tons of progress today. Brake pushrod was extended 3/4", brake lines were run, power steering lines were run, brakes were bled, power steering was bled. And a few little things like new heater hoses and trailer lights were all sorted out.
All we have left is the power steering brackets and then she should be ready to roll.

The biggest thing we learned is that the one-ton 67 upper and lower control arms work great for the disc swap, we just had to use the 1975 one-ton upper and lower ball joints.
