Old member old truck new update

Started out with a 87 r10 complete stock 305 700R4 transmission 273 gears in the rear half ton truck 2 wheel drive went over the years of spray painting a changing body panels lowered it changed out the motor twice change the transmission and six times changing out the rear end and then finally got tired of the two wheel drive and having problems with it and having frame problems with a cracking in the rear end up going out and it ended up pulling it all apart and having a buddy that had a 79 K20 that you was getting ready to sell so I bought it ripped the motor out of it with the body off of it and set my body on there but the only thing that's Factory to the 87 is cab n driver door everything is either 78-74 or NOS and then got a 12 in super lift from Summit Racing and got brake lines 2 & a half inch shackle flip kit to replace a 3-inch block that came with the kit and new bolts from ord and now I have what you see here

Re: Old member old truck new update

It is certainly a different approach than where you were before. Where do you go from here? Do you plan on running the Hummer wheels and tires that are in the first pic?

Re: Old member old truck new update

Did you sell the K5 you'd started on a while back? Wondered where you'd been.
