Thanks for the welcome.Originally Posted by Chevy-Art
I have thought about shortening it up and keeping it a dually. But this truck will be my daily when it's "finished" and I live in an area that gets a lot of snow. 2wd dually in the snow is sketchy. The truck will be getting lowered for sure, just not 100% decided on what I'll do with the bed.
Well it will look good either way and I know it definitely runs better than before.

I say keep the TH400 lots of guys going with that trans in powerful LStrucks now. Slap a GV in it and be good to go.

Gear vendors is more than the 80e swap...
Yeah, the wife's already not very happy with the money spent on it. Another $3k on a GV and she'd probably flip. TH400 is now coming out because it's slipping like mad. Will be throwing in a 4l60 that I have out of the TA until I can find a decent deal on a 4l80.
I hate mine, this thing is just not practical even as a cruiser.
Oh man, I love mine. I think I will like it more when it is shortened and has a SRW. But, I love the square bodies, and I need something that I can fit the family in and cruise. Once I get everything buttoned up I think it will be a comfortable cruiser.
They can be found in some older trucks in junk yards. A guy over on pt.net claimed to pick one up at a pick n pull for $500. I know the adapters aren't cheap, but hey I was just throwing another idea out. That 60e won't last too long unless it's built. If the 400 is slipping now that's another problem and I understand tossing in the 60e for the time being.
