its been to long
So about 3 months after I got the Burban the motor blew and it was put in the garage and has been sitting for the last 3 years. I have finally got off my lazy ass and Started to work on her. So I ditched the old 283
And removed the heater box and im smoothing out the fire wall I also finally got my motor back from the machinists and bought a bunch of stuff for it |

Re: its been to long
Heres a update I finished up the engine bay and got the suspension on.
I bought a new posi and gears with the 5 lug Moser Axels. I also got my new trans! I decided to go with a 4L60E SS model from monster transmission instead of the 700r4. I got some new wheels as well and got the rear suspension back in 4"hd springs with 2" blocks. Hopefully I'll be able to get her running in the next month or so. I still have lots to go with plumbing the brakes , cooling lines, and fuel lines. |

Re: its been to long
You left that sitting in your garage, huh if I had known that I would have try to talk you out of it, glad to see your back on it.
