M1008 recovery from friends house

[rizzo]

last night I picked up my first M1008 from a friends house that was working on it for me. He pulled th 6.2 out and installed the 350SBC and 700R4 (thanks kenny). it has taken him over a year so I picked it up to finish the rest myself. driveshafts and some wiring.

so, when you gonna lift it

 

[rizzo]

I have cutout fiberglass flares already and I wanna get a 6 inch lift, 39.5 boggers, and a locker for the front. eventually rear discs too and maybe crossover steering. I wanna check yours out.

Sounds like a sweet project Rizzo. I like your idea of using cutout flares to keep the COG low with the big tires. That will be a serious mud whumping machine.

I forgot you still had that truck Kevin! It HAS been a long time. Let us know how it performs as a gasser. Got any pics with the hood up?

I assume that you converted to a single alt. with the engine swap.
