Its a 1977 GMC Sierra 35 with Reading work bed.
What Walt was referring to with pulling the axles, is how to remove the
drums. I have never worked on a Dana 60 rear end with drum brakes, and
have not yet pulled the wheels off the truck so I have no idea how
involved it will be. But I really don't think Dana would make you pull
the axle apart to get to the brakes on a work truck axle.
The lines are really easy to change on this truck cause it only has a
350 which leaves the engine compartment wide open. And with the high
suspension I don't even need to jack it up to get under it on my creeper.
I might pull the bed anyway cause we really need a stake side flat bed
more than tool boxes. And one of the volunteers has a flatbed that
would fit and is very interested in the work bed.
