What do you need to do for BB13'

I should probably get a steering alignment done. I may install an anti-wrap bar on the rear diff and swap some better shocks in out back. I'd like to get rid of the rear blocks, but that means new springs. I have new springs up front that I want to put in out back when I link it, so I'll probably hold off for a bit longer yet.

Otherwise I'm pretty much ready to go!:haha:

Re-align the rear pinion angle - the new ORD leaf springs dropped the nose of the rear diff a few degrees.
Re-locate the hydro-assist steering ram to the driver side axle tube instead of over the diff.
Change the oil.
Give it a once a year cleaning.
Prep the tow rig.
That should take care of things.
 
Make the truck a "K"3500 instead of a C3500. Or I guess in 89 it's supposed to be R3500 to V3500. Whatever :doah:
 
Quit spending $$ on the house and give the truck a good once over. And new plug wires, one or 2 burned a little bit.
 
Truck goes in for an alignment on Wednesday. Trying to get booked in for the 3 link before the end of the month.
 
hmmm, my list:

1. pull the 454
2. swap in the LQ4 and get it running
3. replace the duct tape shackle hanger bushing that i've been riding on for far too long
4. tear down and freshen up the front axle
5. little things
6. prepare tow rig and trailer for nice long drive :D
 
Dropped my Tahoe off for a wheel alignment today. Supposed to be done by Thursday. Have had no less than 3 people call me to let me know that my Tahoe was sitting out front of the alignment shop haha!

Nice to know that people are looking out for me :D
 
Got half a dozen Zip ties and two feet of wire that I might install but otherwise my Junks ready for the trailer.

Just got a complete suspension swap on a SAS 90's truck to go.
 
Strap the spare tire to the top of the cage and bleed the front brakes. My dumb ass pinched a brake hose the other day, shoulda tied it back after the bump stop install.
 
Fuel in the semi. $600, but I still won't tow with a pickup again.

Load the jimmy. Pack clothes and leave tomorrow at 10am.
 
I opened the box. Does that count? Just didn't have a clean place to work on it. Now that I have a garage, it will get done.
