Well, prior to here i was posting on the 4.9 section. Figured id match it up with the proper age group! What i got is a beauty i found with 50k orig miles on it, 4speed, 9in rear, dana 44 front, and the work was 50% done when i got it, the other 50% being the motor. I have a few minor things to finish on it, new spindles, c bushings, front and rear gearing with a arb air locker on the way, as well as my DUI Dizzy. Plans are a 4 inch lift and 35's once i finish paying off snapon anyways, now that she runs, the engine is far from stock
