Re: My Build Thread (year+) on 71 Jimmy 4x4

I will have 9" of lift with the 3" body and 6" suspension. I think Im going to rebuild the 1-ton axles (got them already) with 4.56 gears. I will make sure 37's dont rub....seems like 9" would do it. Trimming isnt out of the question either.

Not sure about the seats yet...maybe go neoprene covers? I hate leather and vinyl with a passion, especially in idaho. Cold and cracky in winter, hot and sticky in summer. Need to be Hose-able or washable though.

Dont have the rear seats mounted yet, but will post pics when I do. Fronts are simply sat in the floor and bolted down with backing brace. Probable re-do all that in the following build up
