1984 extra cab build up
Just another "budget build" for the forum. Its an 84 pickup I got for free for my wife. Only thing is I had to buy a parts rig (1981) for the front and rear axles. Motor seaps some oil, but runs strong. Here is a list of the main mods we are planning for the truck.
Custom front spring pack- done
Bobbed bed- done
Paint random colors- done but we are redoing it.
Dual cases
4.88s
Sliders
Winch
Gm alt swap
35s
Lockers
63 rears
I'll try to get some pics as soon as possible. I'm hoping to have it ready by the end of summer.

The springs that were on it were stiff as hell old man emu springs. Crappy shackle angles and no flex and waaayyy to tall for my shorty wife lol. So I pulled them and use stock rear main springs and some rear f150 springs mixed in. Really soft I might might have to add a leaf or two to stiffen them up. I'll be getting the 63s for the rear this coming weekend. I built a square tube driveline for the front but no pics, I'll take some. I'm planning on getting some stock 4.88s and welding them, and maybe hydro assist steering. .. more to come
