    Question will it work

     



    i know a guy around where i live thats got a pro-stocked s-10 frame (shortwheel base, regular cab) the rear is already tubbed and narrowed for everthing its got a willwood disks setup on the back with a narrowed ford 9" and a four link setup. The front is stock s-10 so i know i can get a small block in there and its already got disks up there. He's asking 2000 dollars would it work on my 52 short wheel base 1/2 ton and is he asking too much

    Anything will fit in or on anything else........ as long as your desire, knowledge, ability, and checkbook are up to the task !!! As tech said, you could stretch or shorten the frame as required, or if you prefer tin work than you could either stretch or shorten the box. Go for it, if it's done right I sure wouldn't quibble with the price, gotta be almost 2k in parts in the 9", ladder bars, and brakes. The rest, including all the labor to put it together, is a freebie.

    Thanks for all the help guys. About the box... i'm gonna have to build a new one anyways i was thinking about lmc truck that way i can get the bowtie front and matching tailgate the wood in the original bed ate the lips for the wood so the only thing good on the box were those fabulous fatty fenders. If any body wants to know i only gave 500 dollars for the truck and the guy has two more he'd let go for that much too. these are ALL ORIGINAL. my had everything down to the breather under the hood. which i'm selling the original motor and trans and rear i'll take a grand for it all or i'll seperate

    i think its the 216 its not the thriftmaster so i don't know exactly what it is but its complete the trans is the original three on the tree and its got the rear end that the driveshaft goes into without any u-joints so if anybody wants original parts there up for grabs you'll have to pay shipping though
