I could her a tiny gasp or was in a communal cry of all the east coasters knowing you are going to party that ambulance out. "The metal, it has no holes....."

That was me you heard, I died a little inside seeing that get parted out but some may die so that others may live

He tried to sell it but there's not that much desire for an ambulance and it's to much work to convert to pickup and there is no rust at all.

It was his hunting rigso ya camp rig would be great.

How did you mount the front bumper with the a bomb? Love this thing!

What I did was take the stock bumper brackets and swap them side to side, you need to drill new holes in the bumper once you cut it down.

So how hard is it to rebuild a turbo 400, the tranny that I want to use has a 208 tailshaft and the high millage tranny has a 205 tail shaft. Any thing I need to know ?

 

[Jester1]

There was a book somebody was referring to on here that was really good for the step by step of a rebuild. It may has been discussed in beast 88 thread (banned now) or issam, or somebody else here know may know.

Not too tuff to do with the right rebuild kit from my understanding.

I was also done in Kidjethro's crew cab build, and the name Ron sessions comes to mine for the books author but I'm at work and can't look at mine.

Been busy parting out the CUCV about the only thing left is the front clip and the nostalgia ac unit, so I'm back to work on the suburban, I was able to slip the 6.2, turbo 400 and the 205 in for mock up and to check for clearance with floorboards.
Also working on swapping out the 2wd brake lines for the 4wd along with the fuel injection lines for diesel lines.
Nitto released the 37" terra grappler G2 on the 2nd so we ordered a set, should be in next week.

Got the phone call today from the tire store that my new tires in.

This is to funny.

Ya I know there chrome, but for what I paid for them they will work for now, anyone here have any luck with plasti dip.

 

[y5mgisi]

Looks nice! Call me crazy, but I would like to see those wheels done in white...

 

[Greg Ducato]

Nice looking tires!

 

[ashman]

A buddy of mine didn't like the look of the rims on his jeep so plastidiped them and ran it all over moab with no issues. Whenever he did get a scratch or two a couple of squirts later and they looked like new again.

black btw.

It is amazingly difficult to find wheels in white these days
