Tripp's Speed Shop Build

[Hardesty454]

I had started a thread previously but deleted it. I started out just wanting to move the gas tank and lower the truck with a static drop. As we all know how that goes its kind of spiraled out of control. Due to no fault of my own the more I dig into her the more I find to fix or change.

From here I plan on:

-Getting the frame step notched and Braced
-5 lug swap (Moser axle shafts in rear) on all 4 corners
-Disc brakes on all 4 corners
-Toss between Accuair E-Level or Porterbuilts coil over set up
-LS swap with either a 5.3 or Ly6 6.0
-Rack and pinion
-Shaved firewall
-Replace both inner and outer rockers as needed
-Change over front clip to 68


There is a ton a little things that will need to be done but I wont bore.

This is a slow and steady build. I'm going at my own (slow) pace. So much as my wife lets me

Here is where I started....
