Best thread yet.

Here's my old 3/4 ton K5, although in here I still have the 10 bolt rear. I regret not taking any real photos of the 3/4 ton setup when I sold it ...

Here is my ride. I just got the air into it today, it was missing the brackets, compressor and lines. I had to fab one bracket since I could only find 3 of the 4.

I just found the rare 4l80e/np205 combo, it should be here next week then that swap will begin. Its gonna lose the th400/np203. Hopefully it all goes smooth.

You finally sold it? I had been seeing that thing on craigslist for months, awesome looking truck but a little too rusty.

Good to hear you got the A/C working! Did you figure out that the small clamp around the liquid line bolts to the P/S reservoir bracket? Got any pictures under the hood with it all finished up? (maybe a different thread then this) I also just got mine working, charged it with "R152a".

Trailready brand.... Had'nt heard of them.

Look like old style Method brand

Most of the new rims style I dont care for (Im old school), but those look pretty good. Simple style.

WOW ! 20 inchers !
