Re: My 70 is allmost complete "allmost"

It is a 5.3 with a zo6 intake, throttle body and oil pan.
i went with those covers because they are a close match to the body color, just a little darker.

Re: My 70 is allmost complete "allmost"

The wheels are 18,s and the tires are 35,s
the lift is four inches and give or take an inch and a half for the larger axles.

Larger axles?? Does it have 1 ton axles. I know that a D60 front will give a little lift over a D44 so that's why i'm asking.

Re: My 70 is allmost complete "allmost"

the axles are dana 50 off a 200 superduty, needed the drivers side pumpkin for the 4l60e to bolt up right, four wheel disc and fox shocks with a double on the hoop up front


The shop that did the axleswaphad said it would give me some lift

these new one compared to the stock make the stock look super tiny

Re: My 70 is allmost complete "allmost"

For the seats in the front 2 inch wide flat metal strips were welded down and the bolts run thru the bottom up through the seat brackets.

The two in the rear are out of a cadillic cts with built in belts those had to have a cup made in the floor for the front to hook into then the rear has a bolt through the floor and a small bracket welded to the back of one of the tracks then bolted through the floor.
