Why?

Gen III truck engine power steering pump location dictates an outside frame rail box, not enough room for both inside the rails.

 

[Kyle M.]

Maybe I'm. Not savy on what Gen is what, but his is a 94 and should have the same box as me.

 

[wahlstrom1]

Sorry, Gen III in engine terms usually refers to LS series engines, 4.8/5.3/6.0/6.2L GM engines.

 

[Josh40601]

When i put the Gm motor in the truck, i wont be able to have the steering box onside the frame, so i will have to go with a yota box

 

[Kyle M.]

I'm with ya now

 

[Josh40601]

guess what i just got in......












Chevy 8 lug outers

got everything including Reid knuckles with high steer arms already mounted, Warn premium lockouts, brakes, rotors, spindles, stub shaft, bearings, hardware, hell the whole sha-bang!

too bad it is just going to sit in a box until we get back to KY....

you get all the good stuff.. let me tell you the "your" new shipping address.....lol

 

[RangerSVT]

Nice score...Where did you find that deal at and what'd it run you??
SVT

 

[Josh40601]

a guy on Pirate. Total bill was 370 including shipping (which was 91 bucks) so i paid 279.00 for everything. Pretty good deal in my book

 

[RangerSVT]

Hell yeah, got pics??
SVT

 

[Josh40601]

No. I will snap some after i get them all cleaned up. For some reason they painted the knuckles white??

 

[4.0B2]

to make 'em stand out.. the barbie jeep has white knuckles...lol

 

[Josh40601]

Yea, but they come bright orange. That stands out pretty well... I dunno. Oh well. Nothing a little black paint can't fix.

 

[4.0B2]

paint them yellow... IMO

 

[Josh40601]

na, i kinda like all the suspension/steering/drivetrain/armor to be black. The only thing that doesn't fall in that category is my shocks, which i like the bright blue and silver. Other than that, i'll stick with black.
