Man I'm jealous. Hard to find one with no rust up north here. Especially for only 500$! T56 would be sweet but a 4l80e nice too. Depends on if you like shifting or not. Should be a sweet setup. You should do a thread on that brake setup. Good luck

Good buy you got, and great platform to start with.

Interested on how this is going to work. Have you done something like this before?

thanks Bobby

Art:
NO I havent...

Ive done a Little R&R as I had a 96 2dr tahoe that I started a Big Brake Conversion on but I sold truck before finishing...

As of now (not 100% ) spindles should bolt up to Control arms , worse Case I might have to Taper for the Ball joints , as to Caliper mounting , I have to FAB up a bracket to mount on Calipers but thats cake!

wow, never thought to convert from OBS spindles to NBS spindles. Sounds like a ton of work and then you're facing 6 lug wheel rather than 5 lug, though you'll have a bigger selection of wheels but only a few 5 spoke options. Look at the Coys 5 lugs like DBRODS runs on his truck, they're awesome looking.

dont know about a TON of work , but its a small little project in its own!!!

Positive attitude FTW! Looks like a fun project.

Hey guys not much has gone on .. Picked up a Roll pan for the rear but thats about it ..
tryin to see if I order to Motor Mounts and Headers this week.. ANy SUGGESTIONS???

Shoenfield headers.

As far as mounts go, lots of guys on here like the dirty dingo units.

just went on the Dirty sight.... look good just a bit higher than the Jegs or Summit ones. !!!!

Is there a big Diff in Fitment >>>?
