Description:

really nice 2 owner short wheelbase fleetside

link to the build thread:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/conversio...ruck-swap.html

super solid body no holes in the rockers or cab corners

5" front drop, spindles and springs. Front suspension components all brand new quality stuff. Delco professional grade joints, poly bushings. Lower control arm modded for modern caster numbers. This thing drives like a new car.

5" rear drop, axle flipped ford 8.8" axle with a tru-trak posi and 3.73 gears

fresh 5.3 ls motor, flat top pistons, big valve heads, mild cam. running the stock PCM on speed density, tuned with HP tuners

fresh th350 trans, shifts nice and firm but not bone shattering


sitting on 15x10 steelies in the back and 15x6 in the front.

overall it's a great little driver as is. I had planned to add A/C, cruise and a turbo, but other projects are calling. This is a great start to your own "muscle truck"

Default If still up
I am in Tacoma and will be down in Portland next Tuesday. I need another car like a hole in my head as well, but love the build. If it is still up and I can swing it I will reach out. No reason why it shouldn't be sold however.

Default Saw and drove
Just thought I would drop a quick note on this truck. I stopped by to view this truck and drive it. It is extremely well sorted and drives great. The body of the truck is in solid condition as well. My wife about had a corinary or I would have driven home in this bad boy. Doug knows his stuff and obviously takes pride in his work. If you want a c-10.. this is a damn solid deal!

^^^lol buy it and help him haul bricks to his wall^^^

anyways I've gotten a lot of questions about the price. yes, there of course is room to negotiate if you are savvy at speaking to people with respect.

if you lead with "wuts yore bottom dollor?" I'm gonna say it's my asking price and be annoyed. If you show serious interest with your questions and display even a tiny amount of respect for my hard work I'll be in a much more pleasant mood to bargain from.

Also, yes it has small ford 5x4.5" pattern on the rear axle. If you don't like the current steelies, you can handle that in a few ways. Order wheels with small ford pattern. Get adapter spacers from small ford to chevy truck 5x5. Order axles from motive with the pattern you want. It's a stock width exploder axle.

Thanks for your time.
