I can get a picture of inside the bed tonight and post it if you'd like. I widened my factory wheel tubs about 4" or so.

Sweet looking ride, did you have to do any trans tunnel mods with the drop member and 4L80E?

High hump trans cover, the only mod that is expected. The hood is off at the moment cause I'm putting the motor & trans in. Put a comp cam, valve springs, & push rods. Also putting a 3600 stall converter.

Thank you all for the positive feedback.

Re: My 72 with 405/25/24's

Rob I'd love to finish it, but....... I'd want to keep it! Love your burban! I've got a 70 GMC sub my son wants to build. I'd be proud if it came our half as nice.

No build thread I've owned this truck since 98, and did complete in & out repaint in 2004. Just can't quit "improving"? The sickness runs deep! I also have a 71 GMC you can see in the background of one of the pictures I'll start next year.
