Right on brotha, I'll keep an eye out for ya. Also there's a bunch of us from Sonoma County heading up for the Intervention. We're going up Saturday morning. There's a cruise Sat night in Auburn. Trucks are looking great!

I finally got around to getting the front drive shaft legthend by Johnny Franklins in SR and got it installed. Then ducked over to the local 4wd parts store and picked up a set of Warn Premium Manual locking hubs to replace the original auto locking hubs which came with my Dana 60. Im really happy with how they look especially with that matching yellow color.

Finally the Tawnkaa is out of Faux-wheel drive and into Four Wheel Drive.

Now i just have to fabricate my 205 to NV4500 transfer cases shifter bracket. Im not a big fan of what Advanced Adapter has come up with so im gonna make my own.

Everything you’ve done looks good! Nice work

Re: '72 K/30 Longhorn Conversion
 

What all did you use for that 4" lift kit? I want to make sure I have everything before I start tearing mine down. I have no idea what to do about the steering junk.

Re: '72 K/30 Longhorn Conversion
 

Are you just doing a lift? Or a 4x4 conversion? Big difference in parts.

I actually have an odd mix of parts to get where l liked it because it originally started out as a 6” lift

I had 6” tough country spring block combo in the back which original had 2” blocks which i removed. Then I got 4” lift springs for the front. I would then suggest a cross over steering kit from Off Road Design, i have one but had to remove it because it interfered with my custom 292 motor mount bracket. For now i have a 4” lift steering block to fix the steering angle but i still get a decent amount of bumper steer which is really annoying. You will also need new shocks and extended break lines.
