Re: LS1 into a 73 cheyenne

I will start on the bed tubs this weekend. The inner dimension if i recall are 14" and i will extend them out 8" to 22" . 18" for the tire plus 2" clearance on each side. So i decided to go with Mickey Thompson for the wheels HR-1 One-piece rotary-forged aluminum wheels on the front 18x6 with a 26X8 R18 tire on the rear 20x16 with a 31X18 R20 tire. I will completely redo the rear end with a 4 link triangular from ridetech with stainless arms with ridetech adjustable coilovers. For the rearend I will go witha Ford 9 inch or maybe an 8.8 95+ Ford Explorer since they they come with dics brakes it comes down to wich I can get ahold of first. Front suspension will stay as is for now eventually i will hook it up with new top and bottom tubular arms with adj. coilovers.

I will make sure to photograph all this

Any input on this will be apreciated
