Welcome to the forum :D

Looks like you've got a good truck to build up. I agree, I'd keep that trans, that just adds to the fun factor IMO.

For patch panels, I would try a couple of our board vendors here like MBGMike, and Topbanana. You can find them in the classifieds here on the forums. There is also a Vendors Marketplace in the classifieds. If you decide you want power steering and power brakes, let me know, I have brackets for those.

yeah thanks, I am going to keep the trans I love it it's so esay to light up

Looks like you're on your way and that ol' truck will bring many hours of fun. For the money in / usefulness out - our trucks are hard to beat. Great pics too!

do you guys know what jeep spring work for lowering the rear??? Also went to pick and poll some tail gate cabels

Re: newbie here with 64 c10
 

Its the later Jeel Grand Cherokees, grab a set of rear door check straps from a standard Cherokee when you are there, they fit our trucks perfect, I used a tailgate latch assy from a late 90s S10, I can show you how to do it if you want, I have lots of pics of it
