ClimbAnyHill Posted October 29, 2007 Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 Nice, what's under the hood & undercarriage? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peak-j Posted October 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2007 350 .60 over, 2.02/1.60 valves in world products aftermarket heads, edelbrock performer intake, edelbrock carb. flat top pistons. The lift kit is an 8 inch superlift kit, with 1-1/2 front shackle lift. I also changed the steering over to crossover steering, which means now it steers from the passenger side wheel. 38x15.50x16.5 super swamper radials. SM 465 4 speed with a centerforce dual friction clutch. My dad and I installed a dump bed on it also. Since the picture I have also put on a 9000 lb. superwinch. That's about it for now.

00shee00 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Dude that things gonna look bad ass when its done Iam building a `78 stepside shortbed right now. What crossover steering are you using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peak-j Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 I went to the salvage yard and found the pass. side knuckle that has the flat top on the older style D44, had it machined and drilled for studs. I can't remember where I ordered the parts for it, but I could find out if you need to know. The spacer, studs,wedges, and knuckle arm were the parts that were machined so I ordered them. The pitman arm is off of a jeep, and I used the steering box off a two wheel drive 78 chevy. Couple more pics. http://img227.imageshack.us/img227/2830/11531hm7.jpg http://img217.imageshack.us/img217/1543/51011ww2.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been trying to get the powdercoating going. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
