Just drop it off. I'll make sure you need to replace some consumables. I'm real good at that

Spring for the Vatozone studs or some swanky ones?

Nope. They are dorman studs. Google 610-563. All of them are expensive. Damn Dana 60 disc brake conversions drive up the price. They are the only ones that will work without drilling the hubs unfortunately.

I just drilled the studs local fasten all had a 39/64s bit for 10 is bucks that let me run the oem 14mm GM studs toAtchison my rear late model 14 bolt. FYI if you can find one the late models it is the way to go as it has super larger factory discs and an integrated parking brake setup

Got a little accomplished tonight.

New pitman arm with the Chevy DL taper installed and centered up fairly close. I finished drilling out my front hanger with a dull as drill bit. Had to do that to prove a point to myself and I wasn't spending 20 bucks for a bit I was going to use once. I got my hydro assist mocked up and disc brake brackets installed akin with the spindles. Just waiting on my wheel studs so I can finish assembling the 60.









I got the axle leveled out and tacked in my driver side spring perch so I can start fitting the front hanger in place.

As much as I hate to admit it; I am a little curious as to who got the bachelor party and who got the bachelorette party.
