Those seats turned out great!

Thanks!

I don’t have any pictures, but I could grab some if you want. My parents got their 17” wheels on their Suburban blasted and powder coated for $260.

Hmm. Ok thank you. Definitely a lot to consider.

Ok. That’s interesting. I didn’t know that. Perfect, this is pretty much what I was looking for.

That’s not yours is it? The bed doesn’t look cut.

Me too. The HT20 sold, so I don’t need to worry about selling one anymore.

Yes please! The first post has the details.

Thanks. I think I might have found the route I want to go. I’m leaning towards Redline MT90

Thank you!

I found where people said that that is what MOPAR recommends. Is there a more reputable source confirming this? I haven’t been able to find one.

Yes please!

These OEM type upgrades are how I should have built my truck.

I am familiar with that, I just am going with pretty much worst case scenario, rust would be worst case scenario, I'd rather fix crash damage than rust.

That makes sense. It never hurt anyone to upgrade (that I know of, ok, that's a lie, there was Ken Miles), so you might as well upgrade while you're in there.

Out of curiosity, why do you want bigger brakes? I believe I could lock up my 31s pretty quickly with stock brakes.

That would be very cool!

Its a blue truck with a red interior. That makes me think the truck has been painted, which leads me to my next question: Why was the truck painted? Was it in an accident? If it was in an accident, was it repaired correctly?

Small town D44 or 8.8 or 8.25?

This would be very cool. Plus they made decent power. The one in my brother's 83 J10 was rated at 245 hp and 365 lb/ft of torque.

This would be a very cool build, but I don't think it would be as easy as you think. What are your plans to get the gauges work? What is your plan for deleting all of the unnecessary electronics that you won't use in the MJ?

NOS?

In order to do the whole floor pan, you would probably need to take everything out of your interior, including the dash. I'm not saying that is a bad thing, just letting you know. It would also be taking a lot of structure out of the truck when you do that. Again, if you can support the cab and make sure that it doesn't shift or flex at all, you should be fine. Do you have a picture of what your floors look like currently?

But they look cooler and more correct.

I even think that, when restored to original with original accessories, a LWB looks better than a SWB.
