Re: 1968 C10 Stepside Restoration Project

I have been down in Florida on business this past week and unable to do any work on the truck. But now that I am back home, it's time to tear into the front end and start the disassembly. As I am tearing things apart, it has become obvious that everything on the truck's front end is original. Ball joints are still riveted on, upper and lower A-arm shaft assemblies are all original. The end pieces that screw onto the shaft and through the A-arms are impossible to get off. I was only able to get one off.

The A-arms are really beat-up, probably best I replace them anyway. I had to get the saws-all and cut upper ball joint to get the spindle free. Tomorrow I will clean everything up and remove the cross member and motor mounts.
