Great job Boat. We miss you on the boards, stop by sometime and give us some of your knowledge. Another quality home restoration by Gibson63/Boat. Let’s get started, here we go.......a little this-an-that!,
Am I the only one sketched out when the lower control arms look like they're about to slide off the wooden block? Good info tho, I just bought the same CPP kit, but they didn't include instructions on mine, so this video was a huge help for me! keep up the good work!
Just purchased a 1966 shortbed stepside thank you for making this video. They will help me every step of the way with all the things I want to do to her!
So glad to hear the truck is going to your dad. There is no way to put a dollar value on the quality of your work. You leave no stone unturned. Oh, and put me on the waiting list for a t-shirt!
I've been working on cars and trucks ( Chevys) mostly since i was a boy. I had a 64 Chevy short step side, from Texas solid!! I'm a perfectionist and I'm Really impressed with the work you Do. Great Job!! I Get a lot of injoyment watching. I Got me a 84 4x4 short bed from Montana I'm getting on shortly. They got nice bodys from Montana never had one from there. Your a Good Man Building that truck for your Dad. Beautiful!!!
First time I mocked up my front suspension, I stacked all kinds of heavy stuff on the engine crossmember so I could get the control arms close enough to bolt up the spindles...you're method is much simpler...I'm doing that when it's time for final assembly...excellent idea...🖖🏿😎👍🏿
That's great you can get the springs seated without having to use a spring compressor, I hate those things. Keep up the good work, you have a great channel!
Very nicely done and it looks much better than new !! Great idea using the "dead man" to the ceiling. Just finished the same process on my 57 210 Sport Coupe. Need to compress the springs on the 57 since the lower A Frame is almost vertical when the relaxed spring goes in and I have a high "pitched" ceiling.
Love the builds! I always look forward to your work. Very clean as well! Maybe one day I’ll have the guts to pull apart the “Tennessee Stud” that’s my 69 GTO.
My oldest brother had a 69 Goat when I was in high school. The Goat had the 400cid (6.6L) with Auto trans, with the tick tock tach on the double ram functional hood and the Big Rubber front bumper with the vacuum head lite door's the posi rear end 4:11 gears. Black buckets black GTO interior with the full gauge option. The color was a light metallic blue from the factory. The only thing that I have left from my brother's GTO is the Hurst His/Her's auto floor shifter. I wanted that Goat so much but my brother sold it to a friend of mine that graduated with me Eddy let the Goat set for many years at his folks before he sold it. The two men that bought the Goat walk away very happy indeed... I always wanted to own one when they were not so much $$$$ but now it's impossible for me they cost way too much to own now $$$$...

Hey quick question. Where are you finding all the torque specs for the crossmember to frame rail bolts? I have the shop manual for my 63 and it only specs the “crossmember to frame” at 60-80 lbs. it does not say for the crossmember to lower frame rail. Do you know where more detailed diagrams and specs can be found? What did you use for torque on crossmember to lower frame rail? I also have the factory assembly manual but it dosent show. Help?!

I ended up putting the rubber bump stops in boiling water to soften them and lubing the hole with dish washing soap. I can't imagine they were easy to do with the arms on the truck.
Great channel and great job on your projects. Did you happen to take measurements of your frame to the ground for the front end before you installed the drop spindles and new springs (like you did for the rear drop)?
