I like it, looks like you've done alot of work to it.

Keep us updated.

thekid54 · 04-12-2007, 11:09 AM

Couple question for ya. What did you do up front? It looks like you did a crossmember swap, but it doesn't look like it's z'd, yet your front sit's really low!? It also looks like you don't have any interference between your driver-side upper a-arm and the steering shaft, how is that since you are so low? Your truck looks sweet. BTW, here's some pics of mine, '62 on a '63 frame.

**ChiefRocka** · 04-12-2007, 01:18 PM

Your truck looks sick...you can check my build here as well

your truck looks badass

Frizzle Fry · 04-13-2007, 12:39 AM

Lowride, What's the scoop on your reverse hood? We need details and pics!

Imperial Kustom · 04-13-2007, 01:24 AM

Hey guys! As far as the front goes, The cross member is a '63 with '72 lower arms thet were dropped 2". The uppers are tubular and for some roundy round chassis. But hey, they were 1" longer than the stock truck stuff and corrected the camber nicely. The frame is not Z'd and there are three U-joints in the column to go around the upper arm. And yes, the body is Channelled three inches, wich looks like that is what yours is Thekid54. Also, the tranny is a Borg Warner T-5 5 speed. Your guys' trucks are BAD!

L0WRIDE · 04-13-2007, 04:05 AM

hey mike I'll have details and pics in about 2 weeks were about 50% complete.

gostranger · 04-13-2007, 06:28 AM

Are you doing a unibody thing or is the fender just sitting there?

thekid54 · 04-13-2007, 10:56 AM

LOWRIDE-thanks for the compliments, your truck is lookin' great!

Imperial - thanks for the info, your truck looks sweet. I have an '82 crossmember, 3" drop spindles, and a 3" Z, no body drop though.

slammed1966chevy · 04-13-2007, 09:03 PM

Yes its already braced. Yes it is going to be a unibody =).
