Project OVERKILL - Ppump 24v Fummins swap started

[POORBOYK5]

sweeeeeet I wish I had that kind of ambition....

 

[DEMON44]

OK to sum up


blending this........

with this.............

and this.........

with these rims and tires Alcoa 22.5" Michelin 255/70r22.5 are 37" tall. semi agressive tread. its an all position trailer tire. I don't care it'll work good for me

 

[desertrat67]

all position trailer tire. I don't care it'll work good for me

A trailer tire with a load rating thta will support 3 of your trucks with each tire. Ya, should work.

 

[DEMON44]

Ya....I like that.


and you know the disks in the back of that thing are monstrous......16" disks I'm sure. the front disks are no slouch either.

 

[noJeepshere]

Well this took off just like every other project around here

Sure to look pimpin' when it's done.

 

[DEMON44]

some front hub beef........

 

[DizturbedOne]

wow

that is going to be one BURLY truck

 

[DEMON44]

got my new motor mounts. quad high density poly isolators. quality is there. fit and finish looks good. I like them. even took the time to mill the back of the block mount. pics don't really show it but it 1/2" plate for the block mounts and the subplates are 1/4" good beef.

 

[Slapperbar]

Looking good! Where'd you get 'em?

 

[supersize75k5]

are those from screamen semen offroad? Not that ive been looking into a cummins swap or anything

 

[DEMON44]

no these are from auto world in Montana.


just rolled the leftovers of my chev chassis into the driveway tonight. can literally swap the engine with the chassis' being nose to nose. and having the new mounts helps.

maybe bolted in tommorrow.......we'll see.

 

[DEMON44]

not much left there now......bare crewcab frame

 

[kgblazerfive]

What did you do with the 205 I'm guessing that that isn't factory or should I say how did you do that 205

 

[DEMON44]

nothing is stock anymore. the 205 is divorced obviously, out of a late '70s Ford. the OEM tcase in it was a BorgWarner 1440 I have to through that POS away still, been tripping over it for a year.

 

[uao85]

that is going to be one long ass front driveshaft, maybe you can rig it where the front and rear will be the same application so if you ever damage your rear unit, the front can be swapped out pretty easily.

Either way, that truck is going to be amazing when you are finished, and I will definitely be green with envy. Talk about beef!

 

[DEMON44]

the last 2 pics are of the chevy frame with my dtrain still in it. the tcase is exactly middle. the frt and rr shafts are exactly the same length.

same will be for the new chassis. all 1410 joints too.

 

[Teck]

very cool build

 

[DEMON44]

little update from today

 

[DEMON44]

bare bones.........

 

[USSkoval]

Holy crap! I didn't realize the Chevy body would look so narrow. Or is it just how it looks in the pic?
