Either a body lift, or get new springs made. 67-72 kits will not work. I put 76 4x4 spring hangers on my 61 4x4 and now i can use a lift kit from any 73-87.

Unlike Chevy 4x4's sold today, you can't tell if they are a 2wd or 4wd with out placing a 4x4 sticker or emblem designating that.
Hey Gilbert, just wondering if you have had to make any changes to your truck running 33 inch tires. Do they rub at all on anything?

I think it`s awesome! That`s a great plan you have and looks like primo work on the fabbing.There`s a member with a long travel front end,I believe.

I looked at this one yesterday.It`s nice,belongs to a fellow member.Built in California,he sold it when he moved east,then his brother found it on Craigslist for sale...it`s back east now.It`s an original GMC 4wd that he redid using `78 K/20 drivetrain and Chevy grille.I have a rear shot,but I don`t know how to scrub out his tag number.

Her's my '61. Yes it's a real one. All original. Major restoration. I did add a Spicer 2021 Under/overdrive in the overdrive position. It just fits between the the t-221 and the Sm- 420. It'll hit 90 if it has to.
There are some badass rides on here. I know you guys like the big tires, but I like 'em skinny and showroom looking.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

Finally! I have been checking trhis site out for years. Now I finally got an old chevy of my own. I have a lot of work to do. But someday it will be as nice as some here. It is a 61 on a 78 frame. Not original but I love it. Having pic trouble........
