practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
alrite i got bored earlier today, and ive been bouncing around this idea for my ultimate 4x4. probably not everyones taste but...its mine
![]() its been awhile since i've done any technical drawing(HS 07'), but i used a 3/4 scale ruler, 4h pencil pen and some compasses. its got 39" tyres, 18in rims and i feel i did pretty good keeping proportions, and scale accurate. this concept has some parts raided from my c60 ie. the 351v6 np540gl a spicer aux trans 5831/b and a np203/205 double t-case with front and rear dana 60's (equiped with 5.13's) with the new portal axle boxes. this set up yields me a crawl ratio of 535.987:1 ie .652mph @ 3200rpms and a final drive of 6.54:1 or 53.37mph @ 3200rpms. yes thats alot of shifters (4 to be exact ![]() please enjoy the art work and feel free to comment on my drivetrain layout or what ever u want. thanks!

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
Nice! I would have a tablet of crumpled up paper in the trash and a broken pencil if i tryed to do that..
Curious now, i thought all chevy 4X4's of our vintage had leaf springs?

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
thanks guys that means alot. they do have leafs, but i want one with coils, i figure i swap trailing arms on top of the axle, and the portals would give at least 9.5-10.5in lift rear and a coil front susp, kinda like some of those new dodges. then again.. none ever had a c60 351v6, np 540gl 5 speed, 3 speed aux trans, and a double transfer case
![]() plus seeing as i want a coil rear susp, opens up the donor truck possibilities and sense i probably ain't using the stock drivetrain(unless i find a v6 one) i don't need a runner either! at least saves search time!.

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
Oh, ya know what, i have a small computer screan at work and i really didn't even try to read any of the discriptions as they were pretty small, plus i never use full screan at work... I still complement ya on the drawing skills.

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
yes a 478 would be sweet or maybe the 632ci v8!(might be too long, my drive trains almost 5 ft as is minus motor) but the 351 is on hand and gives me a starting point that attainable. i find giving my self attainable goals make it easier in the long run to stay on track and not lose focus.
btw did i mention my cousins making headers for the 351, im getting a cam reground, some head work, and a custom intake made for a 4bbl!!!

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
ya i wanted a 60* v8. 10 liters of godlyness. lol but could live with a bigblock v6. by the way the 478 had a bore of 5 1/8"...... masive. or scrap it alll and get the 702 2-six. its 2 351 cast as one block with 4 heads 2 intakes and 2 dizzys. one cam and one crank. 600 ft# torque with 2 single barl carbs just think waht 2 -2/4's or 2 6packs could do lol.

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
lol thanks guys, i think i found a spare dana 60 front axle, and a np205, so i'm almost halfway their drivetrain parts wise. i'm wondering if maybe i should just modify the current c60 frame and body i got in to a trail rig with 48 or maybe the irock 52in?, guess its back to the drawing board, though a c60 pushs the size limits.

Re: practiced my drawing skills dream 4x4
lol true shortbeds look good but i needed the long wheelbase, and i plan on having two fullsize spares, a toolbox and a bed fuel tank. plus ive always used long beds,and for my offroading i do, its good enough for me.
