Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

I got it in the shop. Which was kind of a feat considering how nasty my driveway is.. I had to improvise with some 2x6's and what not but it is in.

PS fuel tank is off, DS is on its way. Hoods off and I am starting to take the front radiator core support off. I plan to swap in the 89-91 style while I am doing the front end swap and fixing the head gasket. I currently have a 89-91 Chevy grill but need a GMC one and maybe the wiring harness or at least pigtails.




Now I need to find the exact information on shortening the frame. I think it is 6" back from rear cab mount then 14" with the "Z" cut. Then a few inches off the rear of the frame.

Also need to decide if I am going dual 16 gal tanks or the k5 tank.

This is why I didn't get to make much progress..









I hate this ****tily done addition..
