Re: project draggin k5

hahaha....that looks familiar....i traded that blaze to my buddy mike in parker to get my bagged 68 burb back, then the bagged 68 burb went back on ebay to a guy in cali, now my blaze ended up in texas......small world.... thats a 3.5" z.....i never really thought of it as scary but.....i guess if you are a bit squeemish it might be a little frightening??? that 1/4" flat bar is on the inside just as an added bonus, it is fishplated with 1/4" plate on the outside of the rails as well. give ya 5 bucks if you can break it!! was gonna finishin plating the bottom and boxing it in for cosmetic purposes but never got to it. good luck with the project. i still got the trans xmember i fabbed for that thing sitting in my shop too.

Re: project draggin k5

when you switched to 2d drive, did you just swap in front crossmember from the 2wd drive?
