What to do with a grain truck and a week off.

well you guys may remeber my laid out stepper, ive been collecting parts for and taken off etc..., im in the process of building a new frame, with a dropmember LS drive line, and a 4 link., IM not diggin the z'd and 2 linked frame I built.
I came across a pretty solid one ton, and checked the shop, INDEED, I had spare drop spindles, and air bags, all the suspension peices id need, ( the 1 ton has a straight frame and is 34" wide, welp so is a 73-87 chevy truck.PERFECT!!!! a quick decision to keep the blue unit a stepper, so I had the box.

So here we have a 66 gmc 1 ton converted to a short fleet, slammed down, using 73-87 complete springs hangers and diff out back, diff flipped on top. 72 half ton fron crossmember, 73-87 control arms, beltech 3 inch spindles and some old fire stone bags outa the stepper.

36,000 miles, running the old 292 and 4 gear, 3:08's in the diff make for a great cruiser. some bargain finder 20's and weve got a hot rod.!!!!!

Wadda ya think??????
