Drop installed

Finished installing the 4 - 6 drop and couldn't be happier. Great kit, and everything went together as it should.

I did find out all 4 shocks where pretty worn out and so got new ones for all four corners. Now it's off to the alignment shop and we can move on to the next project!

In the weeds

I've been wanting this for a long time, and now I got it. A 4/6 DJM drop kit for the 95! Uses a 2 inch drop spindle and a 2 inch drop coil up front, while out back is a axle flip kit. Can't wait to get it installed!

Road trip!

Been gone for a few days, and it was nice to get away for a bit. Drove close to 800 miles to the high country of southern New Mexico. Searching for cooler temperatures and bigger trees(or any trees really). We found both, and had a great time site seeing, exploring, and enjoying some of the local fare.
Silver ran great, and impressed me with the mileage.

Rear end

Here it is, this is the rear end that will be going in the 58. It's a 1969 Chevrolet 6 lug, 12 bolt posi, with 3:73 gears. A good cleaning, a coat of paint, a set of brakes and new drums will have us set up and ready to move along.

Ok I'm a idiot. I forgot to take any pictures of the seat re-done while it was still out of the truck. So these will have to do, cause I ain't taken it back out!



I like it with a splash of color!

Seat covers

I have always kinda enjoyed doing interior work. I have only done my own, and don't have any machines, so I have to do it all by hand. But that being said, it has turned out alright before.

Now the 95's seat is looking a little rough, and I figure it's time to do something about it.



So I pulled out the seat, and pulled off the parts store seat cover. Not pretty


Years ago I bought this blanket on one of my travels. This will be the new cover.
