Nothing special here just boggerless wanted me to start a thread so I figure all the cool kids are doing it so why not. I'm starting with my $700 83 3/4 ton
The truck already has a 4" lift on it, so i'm not doing to crazy. I will eventually do a 52 swap but the goal is to get the truck some what offroad ready by mid june. I'm putting 38.5 tsls in the front and 38.5 boggers in the rear. So heres what I have done so far.
I stripped the carpet, and padding out found my rust holes in the floor that I knew about and diagnosed what I had to do to fix them. Pulled the doors, and the old bench seat and put in a seat from a 97 cavalier that I purchased a pair for 10 bucks. I then cut the rockers out to put sliders 2x6" .188 wall tube. I started losing light and my buddies wanted me to play pool at the bar.
I did fab up a little bracket out of 1/4" angle for my B&M shifter though.
I have a built 350 tbi with a mild cam, that is going to replace the 327 that is in there. I will be replacing that next week sometime. I hope to get done with all the fender cutting and get the sliders in this weekend. My boggers should be here on friday.
