I'm so glad to see your son helping you on this project, I am learning so much just by watching I know he is learning even more by doing it alongside you. You have a wealth of knowledge to pass down to children and these are the forever memories they will remember you by. As always a great video and looking forward to the next one.
NICE TO SEE YOUR WORK AND THE DETAIL. ESPECIALLY NICE THAT YOU'RE INVOLVING YOUR YOUNG FELLOW. HE'LL REMEMBER THOSE MEMORIES FOREVER!!!!! GREAT JOB GUYS!
Thank you for your videos. They have helped me so much. I am restoring my first truck it is a 66 c10. You are very clear and to the point on the step by step processes.
You are the man ..I always wanted to build one unfortunately I can't afford to, but watching you do it is almost just as rewarding... You are an ace thank you for sharing your video sir ....
Gibson watching you work on that steering on that 63, reminds me when I rebuilt mine on my 61 Apache! Lemme tell ya something, that stuff is pretty stubborn when it been on there for 55 years!!
Great tip I learned from Eric the Car Guy... If you want to get the tie rod end out of the drag link or a ball joint out of a steering knuckle... Hit the thing it goes through. It works most of the time...
1st Everything lined up nicely. It's going to feel like a new truck 55 years later. Hell I wish we could do it to ourselves... no aches and pains. lol "w.w."
Wow. Excellent instructional video. Will be helpful when I put the new suspension on My Camaro subframe. I plan to put it together off the car which may pose a problem with compression the coil spring to get the spindle on. we'll see. Thanks for the vid.
Gibson continuo assistindo seus videos ,mas eu já finalizei a minha camionete Chevrolet C14 1971, que temos só aqui no Brasil, um abraços e obrigado pelas valiosas dicas.
That fence outside your shop reminds me of the TV show “Home Improvement”. I keep watching for the guy next door to be peeking over, taking in the action. Is his name “Wilson”, by chance? Hi-De-Ho, neighbor!
I just put together my steering on my 63 stepside, but the idler arm bolts that came with the kit were too long. if you know what dimensions of the bolts are can you let me know?
Hi mr gibson , can you tell me where I can buy the parts for the steering rack rebuild? I'm in sunny england . Love the videos Ps mine is a 61 chevy apache 10 Many thanks Jim
Where can i get A,,,pitmen arm, it has to be straight, and can you tell me what its for....IHave a Nova sub frame on a 55 Chevy truck.... Cant find a straight one...
How did you get the lower control arm bumper pads in? I used some WD40 and a big C clamp and slid right in. Brakes are going on today! Great videos! Keep them coming.
First time I've seen your parts cleaning setup. Have you considered the cheap Harbor Freight cabinet with the cheap self built upgrade options? Total investment ends up well under $300 and the shop vac added to it keeps all the dust to a minimum.
Randel Clawson That is a cool set up harbor freight has on cleaning parts it’s just I don’t have enough room in my garage maybe if I add on thanks for watching
Hey Steve, what was the torque spec on the idler, pitman arm to the drag link? Also what was the torque on the inner and outer tie rod ends? And, did you get to an alignment shop yet?
Great work! I definitely appreciate the Disc Brake Set up also, because it help me with completing mine due to my instructions wasn't that clear from Early Classics. Question, any suggestion on how to find a Lower A-Arm for passenger side without breaking the bank. Carpart.com delivered one that had the wrong size Ball Joint. Thanks
Gibson63 wouldnt like it you do all that hard work and the nut fell off. I've got glasses so I had a extra pair of eyes lol. I am hoping to get one of those trucks over here in the UK. So I might get in touch with for help in getting spares if ok with you
Man, I can totally relate to working weekends...too many of them. Good to be busy though. As my Grandad used to say, “Make hay while the sun is shinin’!” Hopefully I can catch you at a show sometime down the road. I gotta see that machine in person...and pick your brain on a couple of things. Maybe that blue one will be done by then too.

Thanks so much for all your help with my 1964 C10 restoration. You have the best videos and tips for my project!
Thank you for your videos. They have helped me so much. I am restoring my first truck it is a 66 c10. You are very clear and to the point on the step by step processes.
I recently got a piece of railroad track. Makes a great anvil
Explained well and nice clean work ethic. Great job I learned a lot . I just bought a 64 GMC 3500 with a 305 V6 and every little bit helps. Thanks.
Great stuff! Happy Trails, Doug
I could watch these videos all day.
Great work I'm going to be doing the same I've been watching all day following the build
It's looking good ready for the next 50 years
You are the man ..I always wanted to build one unfortunately I can't afford to, but watching you do it is almost just as rewarding... You are an ace thank you for sharing your video sir

Very nice. Always good to have a helper.
Hey Gibson!! I like your shirt type dust mask there when you were spray painting!! Lol!
Nice work, so many times this gets skipped on a rebuild. Getting ready to do my c10
1st
Everything lined up nicely. It's going to feel like a new truck 55 years later. Hell I wish we could do it to ourselves... no aches and pains. lol "w.w."
Holleran Properties no doubt man lol my red pickup drives great after putting all new parts under it this one should drive the same
Watched this video about 6 times, I'm currently doing the same with my 66, it's a lot of work but worth it
Xtreme Scratchers Yeah there’s a little work invested but it is worth it
Wow. Excellent instructional video. Will be helpful when I put the new suspension on My Camaro subframe. I plan to put it together off the car which may pose a problem with compression the coil spring to get the spindle on. we'll see. Thanks for the vid.
great job.wont be long now, cant wait for more.
Good team work boys 👍

Great videos Mr Gibson and Son!!!!

That's cool your son works right beside you
Man I'm about ready to take a ride with y'all.
That truck is going to ride good
this man is brilliant .. great video's
Thanks for the help!
She is going to drive better than new.
Eric Corse I think it’s going to drive pretty good my red pick up handles just great
Good job 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Gibson continuo assistindo seus videos ,mas eu já finalizei a minha camionete Chevrolet C14 1971, que temos só aqui no Brasil, um abraços e obrigado pelas valiosas dicas.
If that was in the uk them nuts would never come off and if thay did the joints wouldnt. Good to see it coming along.
Excelente video. Saludos.
Nice video thanks 🙏
Do you mind disclosing where you found all the torque specifications for various components? I hate guessing with my 63 Fleetside.
Lots of fun to watch! Great looking pickup too!
Joey Mclaughlin Thanks for watching
Very helpful

Ronster 66 LoL his name Chris he’s leaned over and talked a few times I thought the same thing
Have you ever rebuilt one of those steering gear boxes?
How about mention what size wrenches you are useing
Hey Gibson. What did you torque your idler arm to?! Do you remember?!
I just put together my steering on my 63 stepside, but the idler arm bolts that came with the kit were too long. if you know what dimensions of the bolts are can you let me know?
Hello friends, is a little slack in the upper tray normal?
Doing great work and I enjoy the videos. What are the plans for the truck, what are you going to do with it?
Just GM A bodies my plans were to sell the truck until my dad decided he wanted it so I’m building this one for him
Nice work. Probably not the best idea to bang on those tie rods ends like that though. Tie rod poppers are dirt cheap.
Hi mr gibson , can you tell me where I can buy the parts for the steering rack rebuild? I'm in sunny england . Love the videos
Ps mine is a 61 chevy apache 10
Many thanks
Jim
Where can i get A,,,pitmen arm, it has to be straight, and can you tell me what its for....IHave a Nova sub frame on a 55 Chevy truck.... Cant find a straight one...
How did you get the lower control arm bumper pads in? I used some WD40 and a big C clamp and slid right in. Brakes are going on today! Great videos! Keep them coming.
Soap and a screwdriver slid mine right in also
I’m amazed how the hell you got the castle nut off my rod keeps spinning and and don’t allow me to take it off
Is this on the pitman arm or idler?!

Pulled the torque specs off the Internet 67/ 72 truck forum I believe it was haven’t got an alignment yet

tweb66 purchased The lower control arms from classic parts of America
You good haven't heard from you n a while
seventimechamp #3 Everything‘s cool around these parts, constructions been going pretty good be back in the garage soon thanks
Hello Mr Gibson 63 did you tighten the steering nut up. I saw you put it on hand tighten it but not tourk it
C E Good eye man, no I havent tighten it up yet didnt have a socket to fit the nut. Just brought a socket set today Thanks
Gibson63 wouldnt like it you do all that hard work and the nut fell off. I've got glasses so I had a extra pair of eyes lol. I am hoping to get one of those trucks over here in the UK. So I might get in touch with for help in getting spares if ok with you
Are you still taking the red truck to shows? Any chance you’ll be in Louisville, KY this weekend at the NSRA Nationals?
Been working a lot of weekends haven’t been to too many car shows this season don’t think I’ll make it to Louisville
Man, I can totally relate to working weekends...too many of them. Good to be busy though. As my Grandad used to say, “Make hay while the sun is shinin’!” Hopefully I can catch you at a show sometime down the road. I gotta see that machine in person...and pick your brain on a couple of things. Maybe that blue one will be done by then too.
Now would be the time to throw that worn out manual sector away and put on power steering.
Drag link? You’re welcome.
Morning Gibbs, where did u buy all your replacement bushings and ball joints from? I am about to do the same today. Thanks
(Early classic enterprise) moog brand
@@Gibson63. thanks Gibbs, have a good day 👍
