Re: Finally starting my Longhorn 4x4 conversion

This will be a good project to watch - how long do you expect the project to take?

Well, IDK. So far I haven't touched it for 2 days due to other projects. But hopefully I can have the front axle under it by end of next week. And with any luck I can get the BBC dropped in with the 4 speed and tcase mounted. But we'll see. It seems every time I make any plans, the plans always get screwed up. LOL One road block was the Ford D60 front i just but under my 76 K30 project in the pics, is junk. It went through a fire and the housing got so hot it is sagging down. The RH hub is seized up, and the king pins are froze up. I am trying to get my money back but we will see. So now I had to reinstall the D44 back in the 76 so I can get it out of the shop and back home to sit. Once it is at home I will remove it for the Longhorn again. Man these axle swaps keep getting faster and faster. LOL Oh well, if it wasn't so much fun busting knuckles we would be watching TV. Oh maybe not. LOL
