New guy- Old truck
New guy here from the Bay Area,Ca. I picked up a '63 K15 in Oregon in March with plans to restore / update as much as possible for a DD. It currently has a 396-TH400 with a Rockwell T-221 X-case D44 front axle and 12 bolt rear. Plans include a 2002 6.0L engine, NV4500 w/ an NP205. D44 disc front, D60 disc rear with a few other modern amenities as I can afford. I've been looking at this site for a while but this is my first of many posts. Thanks for a great site and any help in advance. Chris

Re: New guy- Old truck
Thanks for the welcome! I'll probably be spending alot of time in the 4x4 area, although there is alot of cool stuff throughout this whole site. Thanks again. Chris
