I didn't pull the motor because of the power steering leak.

Oil was leaking from my pump casing. When I was removing the pump, I grabbed the fan to test the water pump bearings. They were loose. With the water pump off I decided to seal up my timing chain cover. To take the cover off you have to remove the pan (as we all know) so I decided to check a rod bearing. They were almost to the copper. So I decided to remove the 'ole Tall Deck 427.

I decided to list it on Craig's list (I don't really Know why) It sold for a good sum of money so I decided to build a 383. Since I put a SBC in, I needed new flowmasters. With the motor out I decided to install a 700R4. With the transmission out, I decided to rebuild the transfer case. With the drive lines out I noticed the front one was loose. New drive lines. With the truck down I decided to do a brake job. With the axles out, my truck got 4 inches higher.
