Newb Here
New here.. building a 76 LUV truck, put it away in the shed for a little bit since im not going to be working on it. i think i have decided to build a full frame and am wanting to do a satchell. i have gotten alot of good information, i do not understand all of it as i am not as in depth as alot of this information goes but i will try my hardest!
heres a few pics of the truck and some specs
76 luv
stock frame widened under cab so i can run camaro long tubes, cut up in back for bigger tires
5.3/4l60e
z'ed 2" for more ground clearence/ a little better steering angles
15x4's and 15x10's
sheetmetal dash
master cylinder underdash
going to be getting vintage ac..

Welcome to the site man, I used to have a 1981 LUV truck that was a lot of fun to drive, actually I still have it, but in pieces and no body...

thanks for the welcome guys.
there are tons of things to factor in for setting up the suspension right. its nearly overwhelming to me since i haven't ever tried getting this in depth with it all.
