Sweeeet! Your truck is coming along very nicely!

64shortc10 · 12-29-2007, 12:27 PM

Well I finally worked on the $500 bucket again! I've been considering trading it for a 95 or 96 ext. cab fullsize chevy, but after working on it again. I fell in love all over! I got my power rack installed yesterday and put my new chrome grill on just for some bling. With the rack in I could finally roll it half way out the garage. That things way to heavy to push up hill, so thats as far as it got! For my X-mas present from my Wife I'm getting a Kp notch and a pair of 5 lug axles from ECE! Later

Love that last shot, looks like an old dog laying on the ground. Awesome!!!

NEVERENOUGH · 12-29-2007, 01:41 PM

Wow what a differant truck. Man looks pretty good in less than a year. Don't sell or trade it for a newer one just stay strong and get it done.

64shortc10 · 12-29-2007, 02:07 PM

Thanks guys for the kind words. Hope to order c-notch and axles next week! Question for Dino or Nathan of Porterbuilt, or for anyonyelse with a dropmember installed! I installed the power rack and had to bottom out the heim and sleeve to get my wheels semi straight. How much do I have to cut from the ends of the rack for some adjustment? Still saving my lunch money for the Kp components 6 link, but it will come! Later

I haven't posted in a real long time on this project. I finally started working on it again. I started tearing it down to a bare frame to swap over cabs. I found one with way less rust. the new cab is from a 65 long bed still big back window. Was looking for one with a tall tranny hump, but got this one for $200.00 thought i'd post my little bit of progress!

64shortc10 · 10-01-2009, 08:05 PM

couple more pics!

64shortc10 · 10-01-2009, 08:08 PM

also got a bed from a 62!

**ChiefRocka** · 10-01-2009, 11:37 PM

Dam...It has been a while...welcome back bro !

283 Man · 10-02-2009, 05:02 AM

sweet!! nice to see you back at it.

creep · 10-02-2009, 08:15 AM

Truck is looking sweet! I can't wait 'till mine lays out. Do you happen to know the back spacing on those 20"s? I'm looking at a set of 22" X 9"s with 5.75" of backspacing but don't know if they would work with an aftermarket crossmember.

64shortc10 · 01-21-2010, 08:50 PM

some progress is better than none right!!! I modified the body mounts for my body drop!

64shortc10 · 01-21-2010, 08:51 PM

Removed the rivits from my trailling arm x-member. My new PORTERBUILT STREETRODS trailling arm x-member should be here soon!

64shortc10 · 01-21-2010, 08:52 PM

And removed the shock mount x-member and started cleaning up the frame for the notches to be installed.

*BGRAFX* · 01-22-2010, 03:40 PM

Nice Build!!!!

72BlckButy · 01-22-2010, 03:52 PM

It's coming along nicely. What are the plans for the rear suspension? Porterbuilt DM?

lownslw64 · 01-24-2010, 02:17 AM

Thanks guys. I ordered a trailing arm x-member from PB and I have a 9in Kp components notch i'm going to have Kevin from LFD install. He has a set of 3/4 ton arms we will try and see if I can lay on those. If not I will be getting the PB arms also! I also plan on getting the Kp watts link and run sleeve bags in front of the axle, if thats how Kevin sets it up!
