This is my 1975 Chevy Scottsdale. As of right now, it has a 12 inch suspension lift and a 3 inch body lift sittin on 38x15.50x15 Super Swamper TSL's and 15x10 Cragar soft 8 black steel wheels. Me and my dad rebuilt the 350 motor with offroad cam and offroad carburetor bowl with a TH350 tranny, NP205 transfer case, dana 44 front with open diff and 4.10 gears, and 12 bolt rear with posi and 4.10 gears. I'll add more pages as I get stuff done.
Plans for the very near future:
- An x-pipe into Flowmaster single chamber mufflers ( no cats ).
- For the front suspension, I'm goin to move the 8 inch springs that are in the rear up to the front, custom fab some shackle hangers like these (http://www.quadratec.com/products/56006_00.htm) and throw on some boomerang shackles (http://www.quadratec.com/products/16051_321.htm). It'll come out to about 10 inches of lift in the front. In the rear, I'm going to put on some 4 inch skyjacker springs + 2 inch blocks + Teraflex Revolver Shackle conversion. The revolver shackles add around 2.5 inches of lift for a total of about 8.5 inches of lift in the rear. check out the shackle reversal kit: (http://www.teraflex.biz/products/overstock-chevy-full-size-revolver-shackle.html)
- custom Tom Woods front driveshaft
- ORU crossover high steer kit
- throw some chromoly axle shafts and a Detroit True-Trac up front
- Warrior In-Bed Spin Off Style Tire Carrier
- custom rock sliders built by me and a buddy
- get rid of the side saddle-style gas tanks and install a fuel-cell in the bed
- custom roll-bars in the bed and I'm also goin to dove tail the bed. It'll look somethin like this (sorry the pic is so small):
- take off the body lift and replace all the body bushings
- custom steel front bumper with stinger with winch
Once I get more money, here's the final plans:
- K30 axles ( dana 60 up front, GM corporate 14 bolt rear )
- TH 400 tranny and double up the transfer cases with a NP 205/NP 203 combo for a 4:1 gearing ( http://www.offroaddesign.com/catalog/doubler.htm)
- 4.88 or 5.13 gears
- locked front and rear
- 17x9.5 A llied Racing Black Rock 8 beadlocks or 16.5x9.75 Trail Ready black Steel Beadlocks
- 39.5x13.50x17 or 39.5x13.50x16.5 Super Swamper IROK's
- dual Flowmaster Super 40's
- 2" Bushwacker Cut-Out Pocket Style Fender Flares or just cut the fenders
