NEVERENOUGH, its a factory 61 4x4. I robbed a 76 4x4 frame of the springs and spring hangers. The reason i did this was is you cant by a lift kit for a 60-66 4x4 truck. You can get springs made, but around here its not cheap. This way I can buy any 73-87 lift kit off the shelf and it will bolt on. I have a 73-87 4" lift kit on it now and it sits about 2 1/2 inches higher than a stock 60-66 4x4. So far as drive train it has a 283, 700r4, np 208 combo. Corp 10 bolts front and rear from an 89 blazer. It has 2.08 gears, trying to get 3.73 one day. Anything else you need to know just ask. Thanks for the compliment!
