hey guys, i have been working on a couple of trucks for the last 2 years now modding and converting in a lot of ways.
the first one i got is my 1956 chevy 2ton, it was a l6, 16' flatbed with 8.30/6.70 vacume 2spd rear.
now it have a detroit 6v53/clarck 5 spd, and when i get off my ass modren 5ton disc brake axles with a brownie box and elec 2spd rear, can you say gear selection
then i got my 1970 3/4t, 396/th400 d60 rear, full drum brakes, trailing arm rear suspension. this is not the first one of these i have built so i knew what modern parts would quick swap.
my buddy supercharged65 was chopping up a 1.5t p30 c&c truck so i got the full front suspension from him for free, hello front disc. then i snagged up a c&c 14bff and disc broke it and stuck 3.21 gears in it. it has a gov bomb but it will be modded into a preload posi shortly.
afaik, it is the only dually 67-72 on the factory coil setup as per all 1t and duallies got leaf springs.
the next project will be my crewe cab 88 that once again i got for free from superchagred65. he bought it and got screwed on the title, so he took what he wanted and gave me the rest , i have all the stuff i need to finish it save for the th400 but it is in my 4wd dd that i cant part until i get the 70 driving. no pics of the 88 yet.
and i even made sure that the wife ill be having dual kids!!!!
