Re: The Dakota Cadillac (68 K20 w/ Cummins)
Old t-case was a Dana 23 divorced setup. I put it on my nova's floorboard and delivered it to Kansas on my way back to Cali for a guy that plays with NAPCOs.
I believe it's a 4" lift and the skinny was off an 80s K30, as the tires that were on it dry rotted and one blew about five holes through the sidewall while driving across base.
I now have 315/70/17 (35x12.5) Goodyear Duratracs on it after the conversion. I will be modifying the sheetmetal to run 37x12.5x16.5 Wrangler (HMMWV tires) as summer/mud tires.
A good example of skinny tires is the 255/85/16 that MosesBurb runs on his 72 cummins conversion also with 4" of lift.
I need to find more pictures of the conversion.
