Good evening guys,
So ankle issues is forcing me to deal with reality. I have a 1978 K5 with the following, and up front the TH400 is having an issue, and doors are rusted I have a complete set of spare doors. they have the speaker holes cut into them. usual rust on rockers- I have new rockers as well It down shifts at 2000 rpm, so it needs to be looked at for sure. I have the hood it is off
I know list out what it has, and show some pics
So here we go
1" ORD Body lift with new bushings
New Tuff country 4" EZ ride lift with the shackle flip in the rear and the FUSH up front greaseable bushing bolts. Zero rates- new u-bolts and plates
Dana 60 4.56 RP oout of a cucv-Posi something Front with REID outer "C"'s king pin bushing eliminators- ORD spring less steering arms- new bearings - brakes-stock axles new u-joints. New ORD cross over steering- new PSC hydro assist- new ball joints- ORD extended brake lines-Ruff stuff RP diff cover
14-Bolt rear axle- 4.56 detroit locker out of a cucv- Ruff stuff Diff Cover- disk brake conversion- ORD extended brake line
TH400 was rebuilt but the shifting issue is happening-this has new torque converter- TCI manual/automatic valve body-so it locks into 1st and 2nd yet in drive is like a std. auto.
Both drive shafts brand new- built by Englewood drive shaft in colorado-both have CV joints at the T-case
New allied 32 bolt true steel beadlocks 17" with new 37-12.50 x 17 Hancook MT no spare
ORD NP203/205 double again brand new- 205 was rebuilt by mud dogs- rotated up 2"
Brand new- super topper top
New front and rear bumpers - with new never used X20 12K winch on the front
Engine is a 454 stock-ish- I was told the owner put in a 262 grind cam- added a dual plan intake and a edlebroak carb- oil pressure is a constant 45-50PSI- New radiator and hoses- New MSD A9L ignition box- new plugs-wire etc. new red top battery.
Autometer gauges-stock interior
So what do you all think- it served it's purpose for me allowed me to wrench some more and spend some money. I'm sure I'm missing some things, but the above is the highlights
