[QUOTE="FlatlandFSJ, post: 488367, member: 8507"] And this is where all the plans went out the window..for the 3rd or 7th time. I stopped trying to keep track of the "plans". '84 k5. This had been sitting 2 lots down at a friend of a friends for 4-5 years, it was owned by a friend of the friend of a friend, and my dad sorta knew the guy as well. The body on this thing was so far gone that I put my foot through the floor climbing in it to tow it to the house :****: But in the end, it made me 20 bucks. replaced my dana 44s with the 12bolt/44 combo from the k5 and sold my 44s, scraped the body and frame. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/k5_zpsczcwghz8.jpg[/IMG] Pulled the driveline outta the blazer all at once, giant 203 included but not recommended. Pulled the rear outta the waggy so i could roll the frame out from under the body, axle doesn't clear the blocks the body has to sit on when I want to split them apart. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/uhoh_zpsrzmzlo8k.jpg[/IMG] Stuck the axle back in it, rolled it over to the motor and dropped it in on the half finished motor mounts and a temp xmember. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/frame_zpsk2bmuubu.jpg[/IMG] Snatched the giant 203 off and stuck my spare 205 on it for the time being, the doubler came as a gift later down the road, a buddy surprised me with a smoking deal on a kit that he ordered wrong, but happened to be right for my 27 spline junk ;D Its just about complete waiting on a few small things that got misplaced during transport and it should be ready to swap in. Chopping up the factory waggy xmember, I managed to make this thing pretty close to a flat belly. Lowest point is the front output side, and it is maybe an inch below the bottom of the frame. [IMG]http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l135/dillonsrb/xmeber_zpshkg44whl.jpg[/IMG] *insert pic of almost flat belly* Ok thats all I got for tonight lol. Getting closer to being caught up. [/QUOTE]
