So parts are finally coming in, it’s about time to make this crew cab a 4wd. May take approximately forever to finish but I’m going to start the ball rolling.
Plans are 3/4t 10 bolt for the front (because it was cheap and what I have), disc conversion for the 14b rear and Off-road Design leaf hangers and shackle flip kit. Found a crossover steering set up on eBay that uses Reid racing knuckles and the 6.0 to 4L80 will follow this summer.
Will start a build thread later this month over in the lifted section.
Until then cast your vote:
1. Cut and weld the 4wd front frame to my 2wd frame or…
2. Don’t be a lazy a$$ and cut the rivets to transfer all the pieces over.
No feelings will be hurt, looking for brutal honesty here. I have a plasma cutter, two welders, and lots of time. I’m not in a hurry and the biggest obstacle is where to perform the task. Crew doesn’t fit in my garage and Colorado is still hit or miss cold.
