91 K5 Build

Thanks. I plan on swapping the manual tranny out of my white parts rig into my blue K5. I have 38"x12.5"x15" that i plan on throwing under it with the aluminum rims off the white parts rig, not sure how much trimming I will need to do for 38's with a 6" suspension lift. I might throw a body lift under it if I need to. I will be installing the stock bumpers off the white k5. I have some rot on the drivers side rocker so I will have to replace that. I am going to start by just getting her on the road and just keep building her as time and money allows. I want it to be an all purpose rig, I want it to look good but still be able to use it on the trails and in the mud. I will hopefully start tearing into next week. I have it for 2 years and its time to do something with her. I am pretty excited to get it going!

i wouldnt reccommend using those aluminum rims. I got pretty much the same ones on my 33x12.5 tires and i aired down to 20psi and managed to break a bead which i had professionally repaired that is still leaking. Get the steel rims they look worse but are worth it in performance. If you can afford it beadlockers are the coolest :D
 
it's still just a 10 bolt, or 44, with 8 lug outers... shafts, etc are the same..

The aluminum rims are all I have right now so I had to use them. Thank you for the advice!

damn I can tell
Its such a trade off. CA vehicles are rust free,
Smog checks are our only cancer.
I guess AZ or NV are best off lol
Nice project you got going
