70 Project lsx swap
Getting started on the 70. i am doing a complete frame off on this baby. it is my first build. i have a vortec drivetrain to put under her. I think i want to bag her also. I may need to get another cab this one is a little work. i got the front clip off and the a/c unit out, little things like that. here are some pics.
if anyone is interested in the A/C unit let me know i may be selling or trading it for parts. i have the unit that mounts to the cab, the A/C control and all the inside parts except hoses. more pics to come my camera died. |

Re: 70 Project lsx swap
just curious are you getting rid of the a/c or going aftermarket?

Re: 70 Project lsx swap
Well i have been doing a little more work to the 70. i got the cab and bed off. now i have to get the vortec out of the 06 so i can build a crossmember and test mount the new drivetrain. After i get it all bolted up the way i want it everything will be stripped completely, blasted and most likely powder coated.
i am going to go with aftermarket front suspension and disc brake conversion front and back. any suggestions? i have seen many kits and there is a large variety of them out there. i am looking for quality at a good price. also to airbag or not to airbag? i definately dont want it to be slammed to the ground just a nice drop. should i do airbags or just drop spindles and what not, and call it good? |
