Man I'M havin fun now!!
Just took advantage of some warm Michigan winter weather (28 degrees) and took my first test drive after some changes to my stepside. I pulled the 3.90 grears out and put in a set of 3.38s. I also installed power streering and a tilt column and a smaller steeringwheel. Its sure nice not having to strong arm it around corners anymore. If any of you make it to Detroit Autorama stop and say hello. I'll have my truck down stairs at our club (Nightmares) display.

Re: Man I'M havin fun now!!
Very nice truck!
Did you have any trouble getting your new diff gears set up properly.? (I'm swapping in a '72 posi unit and don't want to hear any unpleasant noises from the rear end) Any suggestions to share from that experience? Thanks. |

Re: Man I'M havin fun now!!
Congrats on all your new mods. That power steering makes for a sweet drive. Before I converted, parking lots were a nightmare.
