My project truck

I thought I'd post some pictures of my project truck so far. It's a 94 12v 2wd. I cut the frame down and put a short bed on it. Next I completely gutted it and built a cage. I swapped out the Dana 70 for a aam 11.5 with 2nd gen brakes to clear the 16" rims.

I kept it pretty simple on the inside. Installed the cage, a seat and a shifter.

Transmission wise I went with a fully built Goerend with a constant pressure manual vb and a suncoast tail piece. Tc is a triple disc with a 2600 rpm stall.

For the engine I stripped it down changed all the gaskets and painted it. I sent the pump off to Seth to get maxed out. It's a 160 pump and he put full cuts in it and modified the afc. With 5ks it flowed 480ish. I went with 5x22 single feed scheid injectors. I have a 5 gallon fuel cell and a Airdog 165. I bought a Hamilton 181/210 cam and 150# valve springs.

I went with a s366/80/.91 and a s482/96/1.32. I also put a 3rd gen intercooler on it and built a dual intake horn. I vbanded everything but the intercooler.

Thank you sir. Here's another pic of the engine. I had to use a universal all aluminum radiator to clear the intercooler.

No it took some work to make it fit. The perches were wider on the aam. I just cut them off and moved them in. I also moved the front facing shock mount to the rear.

Here's a picture from the back when I first put it in. I also lowered it and removed all but two leaf springs. I built a set of trac bars too. I hope it hooks haha

My project truck

Was it worth the fab work? It looks like you used the stock brackets. Also on the second gen brakes. How hard was that to swap? I have a chance to get one cheap seems the front axles could swap right in and take a set of 3.42s

I'm still a little ways from having it done so I'm not sure yet. I got the aam for the strength and the disc brakes. I got a really good deal on it. I gutted the parking brake parts and it has a lot less drag now!..on jack stands anyways

That's why I am thinking about swapping to one. Strength. They are much cheaper then Dana 80s and the disk brake are easier to find

I know the aam is a lot heavier than the Dana 70. That is the only downside id say.
