Re: My 56 6bt 4X4 build.

Well tonite was the fitst drive. It's noisey , rattles , no cup holders and it rides and handles like a hay wagon. Yep love it. It needs a few tie rod ends and the drag link is ng. I knew abt this tho. Was wating on the draglink till i got it figured out what I wanted to do. Going to do a link using gm ends like Ryan did on the V rig. This should take care of the haywagon handiling . Still need a air filter. Make a new mount for the T/c shifter, move it up abt 6inches.

Im also thinking Im going to have to make up some kind of track bars. This truck has only got 1/2 ton springs in the rear. That combined with a 4inch block for the rear lift and a lot more torque on tap and it tends to waunder around a bit in the rear when you stomp on it or decellerate quickly. Some bars should help eliminate the axle wrap and keep me going in a straight line.

Any one built any before ? Any pics ? Ryan I'm sure you can contribute
