    How to/Tips on pulling a 350 engine

    I'm such a newb I didn't realize there were 4 pages to this thread lol. I was worried about the lift making this project a pain in my arse. Well I have to replace front passenger fender anyways so I might as well take off the front clip and kill two birds with one stone.

    How to/Tips on pulling a 350 engine

    I'm actually struggling with this too. My uncle has a cherry picker he is willing to borrow me but I know it won't clear my truck. I have about 9 inches of lift with 40's so obviously first thing is take the front tires off. Would the picker be able to reach in there or am going to have to...

    Paint

    The interior is going be painted black piece by piece and I personally like the grey, but my favorite color is Orange...go gators...so its a toss up. I guess I could do the grey with some Orange accents like maybe paint some of the crossover steering Orange along with the differential cover...

    Paint

    Talked to a friend of my moms today who knows a good deal about painting. Said If I prep the truck for paint and help him out then he will just charge me for the paint. So now I have to decide...Metallic burnt orange or Metallic Charcoal Grey? Support the Troops:patriot:

    Crossover steering

    Yea I was going to get one from advance for a 85 c10 and then bring my core up there a little later hoping they don't realize what I just handed them ain't what I was supposed to return. I just wasn't sure if one year model was possibly better than another. Thanks

    Frame concerns

    So in Afghanistan I read that these trucks have a problem of the frame cracking where the steering box is...Have any of you had this problem? Im worried that Mine may be now cause of the lift and bigger tires...either way I guess ill just have to block it out, but id rather not have to do that.

    Where did you find a disk brake conversion? Not anytime soon but down the road that would be something to look into.

    Pockets def arent deep just got back from Afghanistan and looking to do some mods while im home on leave. Yea talked to a buddy and Im almost certain that just rebuilding the TH350 is the way to go for my budget. As for another question...a guy back from home is selling a FF 14 bolt rearend...

    First off I got a 85 K10 with atleast 9 in of lift already. The motor, minus some electrical problems that are getting worked out now, runs good and I aint got no complaints with it. As for the ideas well take a glance. Buying 1 ton running axles in the next few weeks and going to get them...
