Re: 57 GMC, frame swap, 4wd, 454 big block, 4 speed
That's right, I was so impressed with the customer service on the gauge and the shock, that I had to mention it because it's rare these days.
Joedoh, if we get snow this year, the ol truck will for sure come out to play in it! So... in typical habits of myself, I can't leave well enough alone. I think I'm going to start gathering the parts I need for a transmission upgrade. I've decided that I want to swap out the SM465 "dump truck shifting" transmission for an NV4500 5 speed over drive, and adapt it to my NP205 transfer case. This isn't a cheap swap, but it will be nice, and allow highway driving in OD, but still have all the low end capabilities, and shift smooth. I'm still waiting on my custom console and cup holder, but I did finally get the tag light and back up lights delivered and installed. The replacement shock should be here in a day or so too. I'll keep driving it around and enjoying it while I round up the transmission swap stuff I need.
