well these stands work with a hole drilled in the engine cradle crossmember, that's all done ....next cab off needs the fire wall and bottom blasted ....while that's out we will get the drive shafts I have out and see if we need something fabed .. I will also finish plumbing the brake lines

I like this one! Why did you mothball this one to build the other?

I new I could finish the stepside quicker and was frankly tired of it lookin the way it did Im gonna take my time on this one and with each one this being my 3rd complete rebuild I think you learn more and more of what you want the outcome to be as long as we don't keep "going in a different direction"
I have already argued with myself over going the LS direction. I won the argument with logic... I picked up the remaned SB 350 and 2 700R4s for real short money some years ago and had the tranny rebuilt already 2 years ago ....I have thought about swapping out the front engine cradle cross member with a coil over unit to replace the tubular A arms etc. but logic won out I plan on spending the $$$s on paint and interior ...thanks for stopping by on this one Im looking forward to getting back at it
