Re: Joined the Short Wheelbase Club *69 Tahoe Project*

Yep, the "engine swap" has become another outa control project (I have thoughts of a turbo too).

Since this one got bumped I'll share my latest thoughts on it. When I get back to it I'm going to finish the 4th door and then hit the suspension. I will install the dropmember that's been sitting here way too long and at the same time I will extend my rear notch by 1.5" or so to allow me to move the rear wheels back. I need to do this to center the wheels in the wheelwells and to gain tire clearance from the suicide hinges. I could just go with smaller rubber but what fun would that be?

After that I might drive it/enjoy it for a bit before making the PS doors match the DS.
