6 inch suspension with extra leaf on each side.
Well this is going to be a long strung out process. But I purchased this jewel for $1000 needed a new motor new cooling system new new tranny and new suspension parts.
I pulled the old 350 out threw it behind the garage it needed new heads and a full rebuild (the previous owner didn't take care of it) and purchased a freshly built 350. The guy who built it asked me what I wanted done to it I told him surprise me. It came out around 350 HP don't remember the torque. I was pretty pleased and while that was out I sent the tranny off to be rebult. All and all around $3000 thank god for friends if not labor woulda eaten me alive. Well nothing from the previous 350 was salvageable due to the previous owner rigging everything up half assed I had to replace everything under the hood. About $1000 in parts after a discount at orielys.
Shortly after all that my son was born and my wife said I can't dump that kinda money in the truck anymore so from here on out its going to be slow progress.
On Saturday I put new upper n lower ball joints driver and passenger (pain in the ass!) New inner outer tierod ends on both sides. New lug nuts all around new sway bar linkages and today I'm finishing up this quick half ass exhaust attempt before she can pass the va state inspection (boo).
More pics to come.
