Thanks guys. Yep I remember those really well. Des Moines Iowa. It was so cold the next day we stayed in the trucks all day. Blazerman, you were at that show? In the first pic of my truck is a big teal green longbed.......thats Teeitup's friend Travis' truck.

That 71 the transfer looks weird hanging down as low as it is if thats what it is. I hadn't noticed the gearbox but now that I have looked it is lower than the frame. Wonder whats up with that?

BLAZERMAN · 03-01-2003, 10:56 PM

Mudder, yea it was cold, if I remmember it was in october, I checked out your truck pretty good that day, I think I made 3 or 4 trips back just to check it out some more, talked to you about the rear disc setup and your fuel tank, also noticed your truck is actually two tone, if I remmember right you even talked about your ex having relatives around here. Also saw your truck in K.C. in another october show several yerars ago but you were nowhere to be found.

Mudder · 03-01-2003, 11:00 PM

If I remember right that would have been at the airport Marriot and it was cold at that show too............. LOL I met digger at that show. Gonna try to go to Lincoln this August for a Jamboree adn then back to KC in the fall for the All Truck Nationals.

GMC71k20 · 03-01-2003, 11:01 PM

my guess is that they divorced the t-case and mounted it lower to improve the driveshaft angles

Mudder · 03-01-2003, 11:03 PM

Thought it sorta strange to run the headers outside the frame. That is a big block truck.
