Post by: STEUERDUKES on March 23, 2009, 07:29:20 PM
THANKS,  The 4.3 is staying in it for a while, But I do have a small block just waiting to go in.  After all the work on building the truck itself Im not going to pull a good motor befoe its blown, I will enjoy the 4.3 as long as it last.  It is getting a T400 trans and NP208 case and custom made shafts to start off.  The front suspention is mounted just to be able to move it around, and the cross-over steering is done. I used some of the full size lift steering parts and a cross-bar off another axle to build  the cross-over setup.  I still need to do ALOT of cutting, fabbing, and welding before its ready.  I just dont have time to do it for another couple weeks.  Not being able to work on it is driving me nuts!  I will be back at it soon and taking better pics as I go.  Here is another crummy pic from my phone of the Small block just waiting to go in a new home ;D

Here are a few more pics for now, been gettin some work done finialy. Got the trans ( T400), t case (np208), starter, y-pype, battery in it and fired it up for a few. Now its in the garage due to the weather. Im in the middle of a ton of work and these are just random pics, more to come.  The axels are out of a fullsize 3/4 ton GM pickup. Hope to have it ready soon! Its going up about another 4" in the front and 5-6" in the rear.  I hope to be runnin something around a 40" tire.

Title: Re: 1994 Jimmy 4-door project (I had to let it go)
Post by: STEUERDUKES on May 18, 2009, 06:57:17 AM
Thanks to everyone who had complements, Thats always incouraging.  I had to let it go today due to time, money, and a place to work on it.  It was not very easy to just let something go that I had so much time and effert into and never got to enjoy it.  I got another truck that needs alot less work and has ALOT more power.  I'll start a new topic on it soon and hope to see some of yall in the mud even sooner. I guess the day wasnt so bad after all, I finished it off with a lil buzzzz, I got my daily vote for WGM in, and got rid of alot of stress and a money pit. Just tring to look at the bright side of things and keep moving forward. Life is good!

 ;D ;D ;D  Just got it back this week, Im so damn happy!!!!  I had plans to start another project soon but this is just great.  I went by the guys house who got it from me to see if he had done anyting with it, and it just so happens that the only thing he did with it was put it up for sale earlyer that day.  I went and picked it up the next day, thanks to some help from a club member.  I have some other prioritys right now, but a lil here and there and she will be ready for a test run!!!  I CANT WAIT!!!!  I will post some more pics and hopefully have some progres to speek of real soon!

Hopefully next week Ill get to work on it, CAINT WAIT!!!  Its sweet just having it back in the driveway!  It wont be long and Ill be doing whatever it takes to get it up and out in the mud.  The best part is I didnt take over somebody else's unfinished project, just got mine back untuched! Ill post new pics soon!!! Thanks for all the complaments!!!
