Hey guys, new here to the forum. Recently picked up an 88 RCSB after a buddy built one for his son. I've had a few square bodies in my time but always wanted one of these so he got me set up with a nice stocker. It was ordered HD and the dude had a 5th wheel in it. Not sure how smart that was but I wouldn't do it. So it needs a ton of stuff and I'm getting right to it. First thing was the sport mirrors. Already replaced all 3 HVAC motors and the heater core. Now I have working heat and defrosters. It will actually dry your eyes out. Outer window scrapers needed replacing, got the drivers done, now I need to find out why the passenger side window won't go down. It's got a bad right side rear cab mount, rusted thru. I bought all 4 cab mounts from LMC. I bought huge washers to repair the frame mount that I'll tack weld into place. Already bought the Bell tech 4-5/6 drop kit with the street performer shocks and c notch. Also rebuilding the entire front suspension and steering. We had another 88 OBS that we got free from my dad's work before he passed away. So that was sitting in the field and I'm getting ready to scrap it so I stole the front suspension off it. I'm bead blasting the control arms then powder coating them high gloss black. I do my own powder coating in my garage. I also bought all the ball joints, bushings, idler arms, pitman arm, tie rods, tie rod sleeves, rotors, seals, brake pads etc.... So I'll document the process along the way. As soon as I do the drop I'll order wheels and tires. Gonna go with 20's all the way around. She's got minimal rust and a fair amount of patina. Feel free to critique if you like. Should be a fun little project. Hope you all like it.
