How are you gonna make the rear 8 lugs to match the front?

this is what i want to know... anyway batty since you have your new truck, go for the mightyMax combo, and get a REAL rear end for this thing, comeon' a FORD nine inch, give me a break, ditch the nine inch, get a GM 14 bolt, get the duramax and allison and get your custom! I want to see this thing dude and I'll drive mine all the way to utah to see it too!!!

But I have also been looking into the Big block chevy crate motors. you know, 502 and bigger..... them are pricey

DUDE THE mightyMAX is practically brand new YOU HAVE TO DO THIS...I LEAVE YOU NO OTHER OPTION, well ok a 454 is permissable only because i have one...lol... GET THE DURAMAX... forget the 8.1, put some balls inbetween the frame of that beast.

it says that sonnys put it together. dont give chevy that much credit. i dont think we are going to see displacements like that from any of the automakers.

what kinda gas guzzler tax do you think one of those things would run? thanks to obummer, we may never know.lol... what a tur* i wish chevy would make a motor that big. that would be so ******* awesome!!!!!!!

I got a chance to go get my truck tonight after work, and got a few pictures, and have a bunch of **** to pull out of it before I can get it. he didn't tell me he uses it for storage. I'll post them just as soon as I can get home and to my computer... had to visit the inlaws....

I wasn't able to get a good picture of the back axle, but it looks a bit odd to be a ford 9 inch, but it does have a front access to the diff, and no back plate. Could this be an Eaton rearend as you talked about 75?
Other than that, the interior is in good shape, with a few dings and rust showing up in the panels, and the original hood missing.... but all in all, Im happy with my 300$ well wasted....

batty1214 · 02-18-2009, 08:10 PM

so this is the truck, but not looking great right now

bradrhale · 02-18-2009, 08:21 PM

where is the other part of the K5?? how much do you want for the bars in the back??

batty1214 · 02-18-2009, 08:23 PM

bars in back are going to be pulled out and sent in for powdercoating...... no price is high enough to get them
and last time I knew the rest of the k5 was sitting on 12 inches of lift terrorizing the streets of grand junction, CO

bradrhale · 02-18-2009, 08:27 PM

im not 75 but it does appear to look like a 9in. kinda hard to tell through the weeds. what does the front of the chunk look like?? does it have 2 vertical lines and/or 2 horizontal lines??
i take that back, are those bolt holes there in the back of it??
