My K Frame rebuild PICS!
« on: June 09, 2009 - 08:50:30 PM »
 :bigsmile:

I just Finished this weekend. I am now waiting on my suspension bushing/balljoint PST Kit.

Lotsa blasting to get everything down to bare metal. Lots painting too.
I used the Eastwood 3 stage Zinc Cadmium finish kit to duplicate the cosmolene finish on the LCAs.
Looks cool.
All of the strut rods and cast parts are natural finish with a protective coating.
Not sure of I did the engine mounts correctly.
Anyway, for your enjoyment.

Isn't one of the block mounts supposed to have a tube welded on it so the bolt goes through? Drivers side I think mine was? Looks like you have 2 passenger sides on there? Mine is big block so I'm not sure about small block? :dunno: I'm no expert!
