good truck, i love the mid 90s chevys. Are you planning on doing a 4 wheel drive conversion or just leaving it 2wd?

 

[Runner1234]

Im acutlly gonna have to leave it 2wd but in a couple years ill get a 4x4. It would run me about 2500 just to do it myself and thats a little much.

 

[98dango]

Im a little specail but my last 2wd to 4wd cost me 2500 including the truck. you can do it much cheaper than that.

 

[warrpath4x4]

it all depends on how you wanna do it and what you wanna do it with

 

[Runner1234]

How much would it cost?

 

[98dango]

Very much so my lat truck snoma ran 40s and was locked front and rear. My life and wants changed now im mad that i have to put 35s on my truck in sted of 32s. So do what makes you happy I ran all over south dakota and wyoming with 32s ifs and 2wd had a great time dont let the 2wd nay sayers deflate what you want to do just be prepared.

Update

Got a caper shell today it has a light inside. I am going to paint it red and build a sleeping platform. Tell me what you think!

 

[98dango]

[Runner1234]

Ill post up more when i get some stuff done. Trying to get some time to go!

if that is an aluminum block in the rear i would change that out to a cast iron one if i was you. i have seen quite a few of those loosen up and get mangled. at the very least keep and eye on it.

camper shell looks good! get a $20 air mattress and hit the trails!

Your truck is a great starting platform for a good project! Can't wait to see some more upgrades!
