took care of the rear end last weekend. ford 8.8 rear end is replacing the 7.5 that came in this truck. factory 31 spline axles, 4.10 gears and a limited slip diff. it came with all of the disk brakes so that will be a nice upgrade from the drums that are currently on the truck. picked it all up for 325.

still collecting parts. need the trans rebuilt, a converter, flex plate, shocks, fuel cell, fuel system, hood and possibly a cam if this one wont clear the pistons. still need head gaskets, the heads to come in, radiator also need a good underdrive pulley as i dont trust my ASP anymore...i plan to take the truck down to the frame so i dont want to lose my entire garage when it's not ready to be done. working in a 2 car garage sucks. 1 little s10 can end up taking up the entire garage once it's disassembled.
