Hello everyone. This is my second post so bear with me.
I am building a bucket using what I can from Ron at RPM. He has been so helpful. We finally decided on what it is I'm getting from him and I could really use your help. While I'm working on getting the deposit I wanted to start pricing out what else it is I need to order to complete the project. Here is what I'm getting from Ron.
- Stretch frame with brackets and tabs for front and rear suspension, motor and trans mounts.
- 4" drop axle kit, includes brakes, spindles, steering arms and tie rod w end.
- vega steering box
- pitman arm
- drag link w ends
- rear suspension kit, chrome coil over shocks, radius rods, panhard bar, brackets for rear
- Used S-10 rear end with above brackets welded on....
- 10" stretch body no door
- turtle deck, or 20" bed w cover.
I am a spreadsheet guy so I'm wanting to list out what else it is I need to order. Here is what I have so far.
- Engine 350SB (depending on what I can find used what do I need with it?)
- Transmission 700r4 (same)
- Wheels / Tires
- Brakes (what is it that I need that is not included?)
- Dash
- Instruments
- Seat (since I'm taller at 6.3" what is a good recommendation so that I sit in the bucket in and on top of it?)
- Gas Tank (and lines)
- Lights
- Front suspension (anything missing from RPM?)
- Rear suspension (same)
- Windshield and frame (Is there a split window design)
- Radiator (and ??)
- Pedals
- ?
-?
I could really use recommendations in these areas (or any that I am missing). I'm wearing the search out and will add to this as I go.
Thanks everyone for your help and input.
