Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

I've been looking to get some wide white walls and kinda been stressing out about what to get, are you guys running all the same size tires? I wanted to go with a wider tire out back but everything I'm seeing in a radial will also have a taller white wall, mayn't I'm wrong but I think it might look kinda stupid with a 3" or 3 1/8" white wall in the back and a 2 1/2" or 2 3/4" up front, but then again maybe it's not that noticeable... Let me know what you guys are running, thanks! Steve

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

Looking good 4Dseven. Do you have any pics
Of your 4 link setup? Also where did you get your 700r4 tranny. I've got a 383 also looking for a 700r4 to go with it.

Re: How about some pics of bagged 47-59

I have pics of the four link but am out of town at the moment, I can dig them up. The 700r4 I got from an old suburban that got in to a wreck after 1 month of having a new engine and tranny. Ended up picking it up for $100.

The MII was from a donor that we rebuilt. The 8.8 was out of an Explorer.

The build has taken 5 years.

Nice man. I'm using an 8.8 out of a Lincoln. Did you use a pan hard bar or a Watts type link or...?

If I recall we swapped the axles out at the time. Went to a Chevy bolt pattern too. Possibly an s10? I'd have to check with my buddy at the shop as we had so many changes along the way.

Here are some pictures of my new toy. 1951 GMC 5 Window. She's getting a bagged s-10 frame swap. I love that patina.
