Tony, it is not a trailing arm setup, it is four link, all I had to cut the cab floor for was the trans support crossmember and the yoke coming out of the trans. Got it ready to fire but I still need the stuff to convert my oil pressure sender so I can read oil pressure. Hope to get that stuff Wed or Thurs. I don't want to start it if I can't see oil pressure. She's a little tight there at the #8 coil. Shot of the '72 next to my "daily"

Re: New member new Project
Thanks guys
Got lucky and scored at the salvage yard, found a nice high profile tranny cover out of a '70 blazer, complete with bullet holes.

Re: New member new Project
That bumper looks good on the pavement! Did you lower the bumper mounts down 3/4 for the body drop, or is it still stock and just the sheetmetal went down? Also did your cab have a pinch weld on the bottom? If so did you remove it? I lowered my cab mounts and the pinch weld is now holding my frame up off the ground about a half inch. Very nice build I will slowly be to the point you are! And I wish I would have gone LS motor. I'll be running a 94 LT1. Very nice!

Yes I did lower the bumber .75" also to match the rest of the body drop. Tires are Nitto Extreme ZR 245/45ZR 18 Got floor insulation, mat, and seat in ... have gone on a couple short cruises. This thing is a "Beast"! Found a very talented kid( a rotulista, which is a logo painter) to help me get that old beater "shop truck" look.He did a killer job on my doors! I got my inspiration from Robby Acevedo with the Pacific Coast Customs shop truck project. Tomorrow I will get some pics out in the sun cruising the town.
