Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
There are at least 2 different radius arm frame brackets. One is a bit lower than the other. I would use the lowest one, or maybe fabricate your own. There are 'C' bushings available with different degrees of rotation in them.

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
I do plan to use the stock ford radius bars and mounts even . It's a road truck so extra articulation is not really a big deal. Thanks for the advice though I may use it on the next off road truck. I will build a better ps hard rod though , something with less angle . I'm not sure how the steering box and tiered will be just yet . I am using a 79 c-10 2x4 owner box and pitman arm .

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
I know that's been done I remember a few yrs back I think it was a 4 wheeler magazine that there was a 67-72 chevy 2WD that was converted to 4x4 using the FORD setup up front and used the 2WD rear and moved the rear trailing arms to sit I think on top of the rear end... the truck looked really good....

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
Very cool, might get lost if it's to close to the bush, seems like quality paint work w more than a few hours spent on it too.

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
my guess would be a wrap rather than a paint job.

Good thinking on the wrap, how easy it is to forget new things..

Slow Build,
I think there's a difference between Wild and Barbaric. No, it is a 2 door Crew Cab. Wish I some more photos and info on this one. Last edited by 66Gilbert; 02-23-2016 at 11:49 PM. |

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
Hey have any of you guys had trouble with stock lug studs being too short for some of these new aluminum rims , I'm looking for some longer 7/16 565 shoulder like 4x4 have on the front but not having much luck , soon be ready to drive though so I'm searching.

Check out the Dorman Catalog. They have a ton of different size studs.

Re: 60-66 Chevy And GMC 4X4's Gone Wild
Maybe too obvious but a couple of differences I'm aware of are with the grill letters and hubcaps. The 64-65 grill letters (G and C) were oval shaped while in 66, the G and the C were more squared off... plus the 66 had a groove running though the letters which was painted red. The hubcaps for a 66 had a raised ridge around the center and also at the edge of the three pointed star shape (or whatever you call it). The 64-65 hubcaps were flat here.
