OK, I know that I said that I wasn't going to mess with this truck but after driving it for awhile it became clear that if I was going to use it as a daily driver than some things were going to need updated. Here is the first step: Dana 60 rear and Dana 44 front (open knuckle, disc brakes)- both 8 lug, 4" lift with heavy duty ORD greasable shackles and main eye bushings. I am hoping that after I put the 427 in that the stance will be a little more level (that big block is a littly heavier than the 250).

I messed up my attachment, see next posts!
