Re: Before/After Off Road Trucks

Hmmmm........


Let the metamorphosis begin (continue....)

February 2001: First Day as a 1st Gen Owner




4" Lift, 35's, 1/2-Ton axles, rear drum brakes, cheezy aftermarket seats, 396BBC.....


After a while (and a dollar or two)...



7" Lift, 38's, 1-Ton axles with 4-wheel discs, long travel shocks, Detroit Locker, Crossover Steering and High Steer, Ram Assist, Rebuilt 396BBC....Stock seats re-installed.


Present Day: (Oooops, I'm regressing!)



Back to about a 4" Lift (Removed 2" BL), 1-Tons, Crossover Steering, 38's....replacing 396BBC with a 502BBC/TH400/Atlas-4 combo. 4-Link rear suspension replaces leafsprings.....adding a full tube chassis, and yes, FIXING RUST!!





It's a labor of love..... and a relationship that's approaching it's 7-year anniversary.
