    Looking Good 👍 I have been wanting to do some radical changes to G Series vans which essentially use the same components however it is potentially more of a challenge in the rear, being on a unitized chassis.
    One thing is shaving weight off of that crazy heavy crossmember if not replacing it entirely. I have a 4x4 van that was not built by me and it hardly has anything holding the engine in place with a straight axle and leaf set up. That has been the inspiration; I feel the original parts were overbuilt.

    I don't want to be "that guy", but I will just in case anyone goes looking for that specific type of punch. I believe it to be a Transfer Punch.

    Great job . I am putting the front QA1 on my 64 C10 step side short bed. 4 wheel disc and 5 speed with a 327. Very nice work.

    Can you please tell me what is the backspace of those rear wheels? 4.0 or 5.5? Thanks!

      I actually went and looked this up off of my invoice for you. They are 5.5 backspace. They fit well. Hope this helps!

      @@CovertsShopThank you very much! It sure helps! Too bad, I can't find any polished 20x10 with 5.75 BS. I think they stop making them. I can only have them with a 4.0 BS. Do you think by any chance that they could fit a static lowered truck with a 4.0 BS? Thanks, and you have an really sweet truck BTW!

    What spring rate did you order? 170, 200 or 250 #? I have an 85 shortbox GMC. Not going to tow with it, just use as hot rod. If you know front spring rate, please pass along also, if possible. Thank you. Awesome video! Just wheeled mine in shop. Had it since 87, cant wait to get started :⁠,⁠-⁠)

      I can tell you without a doubt it is well worth the money. The old truck hooks and books now.
