1/2 ton status
well, im in need of a new truck, so one of my toys has to go...i hate to get rid of it, but it's just too nice to beat up as a offroad/trail truck.....heres the specs on her:
it's a 1983 K10 pickup that i bought and lifted myself at my local shop....the paint is almost 100% except for a little rust around the pass. door(inside door jam) and a x that somebody decided they would key on the pass fender.
SUSPENSION BRAKEDOWN:
1ton running gear(D60,14bolt) geared to 4.56 with a open front(see below)/detroit out back.
new driveshafts built about 2months ago, lengthened front, CV shaft rear(to get rid of vibes)
8in BDS springs up front with a zero rate moving the front axle 1inch forward
rear is a shackle flip with one ton springs and raised spring perches on the 14FF(no blocks)
there is a body lift on the truck(PO did that)
greasable shackles for the front springs.
it has almost brand new 39.5 TSL swampers with balancing beads in them and they run perfect(2k miles on them)
it also has crossover steering with HD tierod/draglinks
the rear 14FF has disk brakes on it and it stops awesome
the front kingpins are in great shape...just redid them and shimmed them to eliminate deathwobble.
NEW STEERING BOX/PSTEERING PUMP/LINES installed yesterday...this thing drives good again
MOTOR/TRANS/CASE
the truck has a BRAND NEW GM crate motor 290HP/350TQ that has 2122 miles on it. it has a 50kmile warrantee through my dads dealership
it has an edelbrock 650CFM carb that i put on new when the motor went in and a mallory distributor.
it has a tall K&N and a brand new radiator/hoses/fuel pump/water pump(when motor went in)
it has a TH400 with a deep pan/trans temp gauge that shifts perfect!!!!!
the xcase is a NP208 and works perfect also...(CV slip yoke driveshat in rear, and is brand new)
the truck has a/c but i unhoooked the compressor to go serpentine..but the kit i bought doesn't fit the motor(ebay trash)
the a/c works, but needs frion in it. the truck has a vbelt setup on it now and it works great. every single fluid has been flushed very recently.
it has an electric fan on it just in case that comes on with the a/c compressor.
INTERIOR/EXTERIOR
the interiorr was redone by the previous owner and is in almost perfect shape....it's missing one air vent, but i have a new one to go with the truck.
the headliner/seat/carpet/dash are all in two tone red/grey and are in perfect shape.
the stock gauges were replaced with autometer pro-comp gauges and i added two gauges on the pillar(trans temp, and vac gauge) VERY NICE!!!
it has a pioneer cd/mp3 player in it with two speakers installed in the door to go with the 3in the dash.
it has all power windows/door locks/ and intermitten wipers.
i had line-x sprayed in the bed about 5months ago and still shines nice and black. it's real nice for haulin stuff.
it has a class V hitch on it.
there is a stainless toolbox in it and matching bedrails
the windows are tinted but are peeling a little on the vent windows.
as stated above...the only rust on the entire truck is a little on/around the pass door....when you open the door you can see it...it's in the door jam, but only one spot(about the size of a quarter) has gone through...the rest is all solid metal. THAT IS THE ONLY thing wrong with the whole truck...it would be show quality/PERFECT with that fixed.
anyways, i have invested over 17k dollars on this truck and im only asking 8100/OBO for it....COME AND GET IT!!!
if your wondering why im selling it...b/c i have something else up my sleeve
you can reach me at 941-812-1586(leave message) if you are interested/wanna come see the truck. this has been a DD for me for the last year or so and i wouldn't hesitate to drive this truck cross country....everything is basically brand new.
IT HAS ONLY BEEN OFFROAD 3 TIMES, and two times were to pull out buddies who were stuck.
well, here are some pictures:
i will have to get some more pictures up....since my imagestation does exist anymore
