I have a 1968 c10 short box step side. I installed the LS 6 litre, 4l60e trani and a eaton posi with 3.73 12 bolt. Drove it all last summer and work great. I plan on doing the same up grades. I was pricing out the up grades like drop spindles, springs, suspension, shocks, sway bars, rack and pinion steering, disc brakes front and rear. It was adding up pritty quick. I bought the front and rear suspension from a 1987 c4 corvette for $1500. It has everything I just qouted. I bought a front cross member from flat out engineering to mount all of this front end. I think they also make a rear mount kit for your truck. They dont have one for mine yet. I plan on buying the no limit rear frame rail kit for my rear suspension install. Then I will have to make up my own diff mount brakets. I also have a spare frame so I can work on this while I am still driving my truck.
