Good progress over the last few days!
Painted up the calipers and WJ knuckles
Bake at 200 degrees for 1 hour for best taste.
Old balljoints out...
...and new balljoins in! Red makes them turn faster.
Knuckles, springs, shocks installed.
Adjustable trackbar adjusted and installed.
A digital level makes pinion angle/caster adjustment waaaay easier.
So that's where I got to today. Hit a bit of a snag, both sets of axle shafts could use new U-joints, so new Spicer 760x units are on order but obviously will take a few days to arrive. Since the axle shafts have to go in before unit bearings or brakes, I'll have to just temporarily install a set of shafts for now, get the brakes set up, and then swap shafts again later. At least that gets the vehicle mobile so I can spin it around and finish the work on the back end.
