The Chevy engines go in because they're the easiest to do
modification-wise. With the new saddle mount that just came out, all
we have to do is mount the engine to the saddle and weld it in. Poof!
There's your engine. Fab a few mounts for the transmission/t-case and
the only thing left is dropping the axles in and getting drive shafts
cut. The D44s we are using are a direct bolt-on to my leaf packs, but
we'll tweak those too and put spring pads on top for a SOA. Hemi swaps
are now all the rage, but I don't have enough available body parts to
sell in order to pay for a crate 6.1 Hemi, not to mention the $1300
wiring harness (full vehicle) needed to make it play nice.<br>
<br>
I'm getting this stuff so cheap because my wheelin' buddy bought a
truck from a guy who didn't know what he had to rob the 3/4 ton axles
out from under it for his Scout II. Everything else is in great
condition, and I'm taking the Scout D44s and putting them under my
rig. He already got his money's worth out of the truck (the axles
alone are worth far more than he paid for the entire vehicle), so this
is pure profit for him. I can't beat the price.<br>

<pre wrap="">But can you beat this? A small-block bowtie 350, Turbo 350 transmisino,
NP205 t-case and a pair of D44 axles (rear spooled) for $400? :D
Depending on how things worked out, I might have a set of 15x10 six lug
wheels to go with the new axle shafts for the outrageous price
of....*drumroll* $0.

Wow. All of that for $400!? What condition is the engine in? That would be a
good deal if you can score it. $400? Sweet!
Why is it that all the Jeep guys put Chevy 350's in their Jeeps?
.... I thought so. ;)
