My Daughter is happy with it plus it matches the interior pretty good!

One of the greatest builds on this forum!! I have this biscuit booked marked!

[waynep]

this build is amazing. wow!!! This really makes me want to get out in the garage!!

[6t9camaro]

I took a break from the truck and posting for quite awhile! I just wasn't happy with the build and the direction it was going. I completely tore the truck down and pretty much started over. Here are the last few pics from before I took a break a few months back. Kind of a shame since it was running and almost ready to drive other than the box/back half needing to be finished.

More teardown! My kids took over the bench and used the truck as a hangout for a while until I figured id better get back on track with it! Stripped it and took out the frame to maybe use on another project?

[6t9camaro]

Here's where the direction changed for me! I picked myself up a set of powder coated transits with new rubber for another project and decided I wanted a big wheel for the C10. In order to put a 22" wheel and slam it the way I really wanted to do in the first place required more suspension work than I had done. So after doing quite abit of research I decided on Choppin blocks complete front crossmember kit and rear back-half kit.

Picking up the Choppin block stuff!

[6t9camaro]

Now to the good stuff! Unpacking and checking it out! Choppin blocks quality is pretty awesome and I'm very impressed. I ordered pretty much everything they offered (at the time) heres a few pics.

Nice direction your taking with it. Can’t wait to see the outcome!

[Mykids69]

Do you have any interest in re-homing the upper and lower modified stock control arms?

[slowcpe]

Nice collection of parts

So I picked up a parts truck (72 3/4 ton 292 4 spd) awhile back and figured since I needed a set of frame rails it would be a good donor. Front rails were really nice and straight but the rear section under the box were shot from years of hauling some type of fertilizer/chemical tank? Kind of a shame to dismantle a running driving truck but it gave up some good parts and was worth the teardown.

[6t9camaro]

Got the frame rails back to the garage and started fitting up and trimming the rear section to fit. Drilled quite a few holes and got it all bolted in and mocked up.

[6t9camaro]

Once the rear was in place I started on fitting the front crossmember. Bolt holes lined up well and squared up the frame.

[6t9camaro]

Fit the rear air tank and cleaned everything up so i could get a good look!

[ryans69chevy]

You have some awesome skills! Where are you in ND? If you are close, it would be cool to come check your build out in person.

[6t9camaro]

Thanks! Builds actually going on up in Manitoba Canada.

I decided to Mock up the engine and trans to see where everything would sit now that its together with the new cross members. I was really happy with how everything lined up and had decent clearance. The headers even fit perfect on the drivers side but did need a little tweaking on the pass side.
