Re: 87 Chevy Crew Cab 4x4 Converion/Cummins swap

Got some updates. Working on it non stop, was HOPING to be able to take this on a trip in about a month, well see how that goes HA

Got the motor hoisted up and in to make sure that everything lined up as far as the engine mounts go, and it all looks like its going to be good!

2nd I scored some pedals, column and trans tunnel from a fellow member.

Even cooler than that I ended up finding the holy grail transfer case I've been searching for forever, 29 spline NP205!

SO heres a picture of that guy after i got it all degreased and ready for inspection/paint.



And after having to take apart half of the lower dash, I got the pedals in.



I had read that there were dimples in the firewall to located the 'feet' that supported the clutch side, and also created the mounting point for the clutch master, and sure as crap they were there.



and heres the location on the outside for those studs. I'm guessing now I'll probably end up having to take it all back out to modify it for the dodge setup, but well see.
