Re: 90% done I think!
All I have left is a little Por 15 work on the frame and getting the new motor dialed in.

285/70 17 in rim. The tires are about as big as you can go without a lift.

Re: 71 K5 home stretch!
It seriously is nothing special I used stud boards about $2.00 apiece and thru bolted eye bolts I did not use any pulleys. I don't plan on putting the top on any time soon so it is kinda a permanate storage system. I will post a picture.
