My 1983 k20 4x4

[383stroker]

This is my cousins 1983 chevy k20 4x4. He bought this truck for 575$. This will be our first bogger that we have built. I am only 17 and he is 15 so we will see how this goes.

Looks like a good start

, what are your plans for it?? 6 inch?? 10?? 12?? abc.. bbc??

[383stroker]

We plan on doing a 6inch lift keeping the 350  in it till we get more money for a better motor and putting 35 on it.

[383stroker]

We took the flat bed off and sold that for 500$$

[383stroker]

we already got the lift for it

Looks like a great start!   Keep the pics of progress comin!

[383stroker]

Ok bowtie i wish when it was done it would look like your truck

[Bowtie972]

My first Blazer had a 350, 35's and 6" of lift!  There's nothing wrong with what your building!  As you get older and learn more it will all come together.  Just take your time and be safe building it, if you have questions theres all kinds of guys on here, including myself,  that started out just like you are.

Yes, although your aftermarket shackle looks a little twisted.

stacking blocks is unsafe. maybe try and find/build a 1 piece?
