Will a standard drill bit and drill be able to handle the job? I can weld a new mount tab in house for no cost but I dont wanna buy a new bitI'd just drill it and not over think it.
Yes, it's just mild steel. A halfway decent bit will get the job done, but drill a small pilot hole first. Like 1/8 inch or a little bigger.
Yea ha I'm gonna go get myself a step bit tomorrow. Either that or youll start seeing frame swap questions pop up on hereYep, you can either drill it, or find you an 81 up frame that's already got the holes punched for a 700r4 and then just swap your bed, cab and front clip over. No biggie, either way will work. Take your pick.

How dare they call that a Detent Cable !!! @bucketGot the new unit today! For 550 I got a rebuilt 700r4, a converter, a trans mount, a universal tv cable, and a 1 year warrantee on the whole thing. I think I got a pretty good deal, feel free to chime in though.
One hickup is that he could only grab an electric Speedo hookup for now. My 78 is cable driven. Should I wait until he can grab me a cable and gears to put in it? Or is there an easy way to convert my speedo to electric. I was thinking maybe use a later model truck but im having trouble identifying what years to look for. If its simple enough I'd rather go electric because my cable likes to wonder right now, but if its going to be a hassle I can wait and live with a mechanical speedo
