Re: 1967 Custom Sport Truck

Made some more progress on the front suspension last night. Everything is painted and ready to go back together. I got the PS mostly done and hit a little snag... I was putting the dust shields back on and somehow snapped off one of the bolts. It didn't even go down that hard, just felt like there was a little too much paint on the threads, then the head just snapped off.

It has to come out. Of course it snapped flush with the spindle. I can't install the dust shield without it. Probably have to waste half a day getting it out, tapping it, and getting another correct bolt. Fun fun... I was so pissed I quit and went in the house and didn't put the DS together.
