P1000 Delton's painfully slow build

New in 79 and then later on about mid to late 80's.

SWEET look.
Remember them well.

Sometimes hard to keep the rear end from trying to pass you
but once you got it pointed in the right direction...... hang on!

You should nail my lil S10 ZR2 on a wet road. Love the rear locker but it's downright dangerous in 2wd.

Anyhoo back in Target. I removed my welded brackets. Pics will explain why I prefer welded. Little grinding and it's like they were never there.

 

[Delton]

I took pics during the process to use for instructions. And here it is. Bolted down. I can jump up and down on it so I know it's secure. They aren't designed for up/down impact anyways. Side impact is their sole purpose.

Bolts aren't what i'd use but it's what I had lol. Gonna grab some button head bolts at store later on.

And passenger side. Install time for both sides (even for a novice) is well under an hour. I'm happy with it and I'm my biggest critic.

Plenty of protection.

 

[Delton]

Alright time to remove and paint. I think I'll be getting rid of several of these. If you like simple design, well built, and imo pretty dang cheap (150), these are the way to go.

Yeah right. I got enough left over to buy more material and maybe grab something from McDonalds lol. My payoff is enjoying what I do.

Actually 7. Fb is paying off lol

Unlike my last set, I sanded these down and did it right. Paying off too cause that finish is like a mirror. Shame to scratch em up.

SCRATCHES????????


Say it ain't so D.
How could you possibly do something that would put a scratch on them?
