Re: My Build Thread (year+) on 71 Jimmy 4x4
Ok I now own a 14bff from a 78 3/4 ton 4wd suburban, its in the back of my truck ($150).
I also own a D60 drw front and D70 drw rear, both for $500. Didnt want the D70, but it was all or nothing.
Guess it will go up for sale on Craigs. It dwarfs the Corp 14 bolt in all areas, but I dont want to run a Hummer wheel nor try to find gears and lockers for it.
The build begins.....I also ordered front and back 6" lift Springs, a 3" body lift, and Uruthane body bushings.
Pretty soon were gonna have a big set of axles under the jimmy sitting on 9" lift, and 4.56 gears
