Re: 1971 Stepside LS Build
I had this rear end set up about 12 years ago when I initially started the frame redo. The seals were seeping so instead of putting the whole truck on a trailer and taking it to the shop I just pulled it. I am pretty confident in my mechanical abilities, but when it comes to transmissions and gears I just want peace of mind. Seen a few C Clips come off from guys that tried it at home. Should have it back today and then the rear disc can go on.
Will have a nice set of rear drums (all new) and front calipers for sale.
