Re: C20 to K20 Conversion "Simply Toxic"

It was a productive weekend on the truck. Had a buddy come over and help me knock out the upper spring mounts. Still have to add a few gussets, upper shock mounts, and smooth over some welds. But for the first time since I got the frame on jack stands it is sitting on its own springs.

It looks great what an accomplishment. You should be proud!

Re: C20 to K20 Conversion "Simply Toxic"

Started on the steering this past weekend. I bought high steer arms from Ruff Stuff Specialties, and was able to modify a pitman arm from skyjacker to fit my Chevy steering gear. I had to order a 3/4" drill bit that hasn't come in yet, gotta drill the tapper out of the high steer arms and the pitman arm. I used a 1/2" bolt for mock up and made sure I left some extra thread for the bolt size difference. Still have to add a stabilizer shock to the system.
