Thanks for the link. I was going to pull a trailing arm setup from the wrecking yard, just did not know if I needed the complete rearend, or just the arms and u-bolts.

Hey Vince,
I have a rear axle, trailing arms, u-bolts, shock crossmember, shock mounts and anything else you need to convert from leafs to coils.

Got an O2 bung welded into the header reducer. Going to put the truck on a chassis dyno and tune the motor, needed the O2 bung for that.

These are from a few days ago, I haven't put up any new pictures of what we've done over the past month or two. We put in new bucket seats from an 2001 silverado, a new steering wheel that we don't really know where it came off of, but it looks nice, we put in armrests too, we also put in a manual choke, and we've done a few personal touches that not everyone will like, but that's why it's my truck haha.

http://i49.tinypic.com/fvjozn.jpg

The new seats we put in. So much better then my original bench seat.

http://i47.tinypic.com/1z3sdo2.jpg

What it looks like from the front.

From the other side.

http://i46.tinypic.com/96grgh.jpg

The manual choke from o'reillys we picked up and finally put in. So much easier not having to tap the gas pedal over and over again until it's warmed up.

http://i46.tinypic.com/fasfhw.jpg

The steering wheel we bought and put in. So much better than the monster of a wheel we originally had.

http://i48.tinypic.com/346xgcm.jpg

This is the personal touch I was talking about. These pedals are off of base pedals from a drumset and we thought it would be a nice cool little touch for my truck. Not everyone is gonna like them, but again that's why it's my truck.

Well as much as I hate to say it, I put it in storage today. The weather in Michgan is going south and the cold has come. I don't have the luxury of a nice place to work in the winter time, so I put it away today. I will check on it from time to time and get it back out when they stop spreading salt.
