    NP440 MY6 MM7 4 speed dimensions

    Anyone have a good drawing and/or schematic? I'm aware that is very similar in dimensions to the Muncie. Something that looks like the attached.

    17 inch steel wheels- 81 C10 2wd 5/6 static drop.

    Thank you all for the responses. My next question is where would I find a selection of 18" steel wheels? I see Detroit, US wheel, and Wheel Vintiques seems to be a available?

    I know 20's looks great but man they're expensive! I must be getting old!

    17 inch steel wheels- 81 C10 2wd 5/6 static drop.

    I guess a square set-up is the best. Would either 8 inch or 9 inch wide be best? I might have to order the fitment tool for wheels. Currently on CPP UCA LCA and Detroit 950# drop springs, flipped and notch on factory light duty leaf springs. It's in the weeds. I've got a set of 265/50-17...

    Looking at running a staggered set-up with 17x8 4.5" BS up front and 17x9 5" BS out back. Any thoughts and pictures would help. Black truck picture for reference and brown one is mine currently. Thank you in advance.

    Brake hose issues with lowered front end C30

    How long are the hoses? My kit came with 24" and they seem to need to be routed under the upper arm and not as they were factory. CPP UCA/LCA, 2.5" spindles, Detroit 950# springs. It's in the weeds now, Ha!

    Flipped axle Caltracs?

    Had to trim about 4 inches off the front of the overload leaf. This truck was ordered as a 250 with MM7/MY6 4 speed and 770# rear light duty leaf springs.

    Flipped axle Caltracs?

    Working on mine as we speak. I'll get pictures up in the next few days for reference. Like xm20k said, helps you steer under power.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Pulled the box 1 man style getting ready for a C-notch and flip with CalTracs. Any recommendations on a budget friendly rust converter and paint for topcoat? Happy Saturday!

    MY6 250 6 cylinder Swap to LS Gen 3 and TKX

    Here's a little progress. Not bad for a 1 man band and a wrench.

    MY6 250 6 cylinder Swap to LS Gen 3 and TKX

    No progress as of late. I am working on the suspension this weekend. Hopefully in the coming months I'll get it swapped.

    MY6 250 6 cylinder Swap to LS Gen 3 and TKX

    I'm not quite sure but undoubtedly there will be a 250 attached to it when I get it removed. I'll keep you posted on the MY6.

    81 C10 SWB 2wd- upgrade to GMT800 99-06 brakes

    That looks like a good option. I'm not auto crossing, so that should do.
