I've been using a wire wheel all day and priming and painting them. Will have the final product pics later tonight

my 67's should fit

Yup!

i noticed they seem to just slide on......how do you keep them slid up??

When you tighten the fastener down (the nut that fastens the tie rod to the steering knuckle for example), it keeps the rubber boot in place.

The main function of the rubber boots is to keep large pieces of debris out of the tie rod end, they're not snugly fitted to the tie rod end by design.

I just did this but I used DJM's 3" dropped beams.

From a '75 donor...
-booster
-proportioning valve
-front brake hose brackets
-spindles
-radius arms
-coil springs

New replacement parts for a '75 (new kingpins included with DJM beams)...
-master cylinder
-rotors
-calipers
-pads
-bearings/seals
-brake hoses

and then I bent up all new hard lines.

That truck is so good looking!!! Mine will be about what yours is:) i repainted everything and im going to install the stuff today to bad my drive way isnt flat haha

[F100builder]

Thanks a bunch! My driveway isn't exactly flat but I felt it was flat enough to do what I was doing. Believe me...I don't just crawl around under a vehicle without being 100% sure it's not going to move anywhere!
Good luck on yours and have fun doing it! Let's see some pics when you're done too!

Nice work and lookin' good! Man, I bet it was nice to do this job with the front clip and motor out of the way!

[whiteblur]

oh yeah! i was debating on weather or not to put the motor back in first or not and decided not to. i wont put it back in until brake lines are done.
