91 Sport

[SS350Sport]

I picked this up from some farmers that thought it had a rod knock. They done a home brew rear flip, no C notch, stock rear shocks, 2" drop spindles. 2/6 drop (NICE). When I fired it up I knew it wasn't a rod knock, maybe cracked flexplate or bad front pump. Left them thinking it was a rod and paid $1800 and hauled it home.

As found

Rod knock = broken converter & pump

I decided to weld in the C notch's. Good idea, you'll see why

Cool man looks awesome.

[PASD U]

Nice price. Keep us up to date. I love these 90's sport trucks fixed up.

[70rs]

I made that same dent in rear glass with my head too. Hurt like hell! Serious whiplash from it too.
Hope you are ok. The truck is looking good. Keep at it.:thumbsup:

[wedged]

do yourself a favor and ditch the logs and buy a few more jackstands.

Nice project and good score on the price !

[SS350Sport]

do yourself a favor and ditch the logs and buy a few more jackstands.

Those logs are the perfect height for removing the trans, and the price was right.

[wedged]

Those logs are the perfect height for removing the trans, and the price was right.

but what is your life worth ?

[Muscle Car PWR]

No substitute for safety. A pair of jackstands from your local Auto Parts store is a must.

[SS350Sport]

All kidding aside, I always try to be safe in the garage. I have 4 complete sets of jack stands. There are two more jack stands under the front of the truck where the frame starts to curve in. I just put the blocks there to keep the wheels from hanging. For some reason the rubber brake hoses seem like they are at the end of their limit when the front wheels are hanging free.

[796spdbu]

I dig it! I love this body style truck. I have several of these. Good luck with your build!

[SS350Sport]

I found a frame last weekend for $45 and couldn't pass it up. My frame was bent in the crash. I had it straightened but when I took the bed off to repair the back of the cab I didn't feel comfortable with the work that had been done. What's the the saying? (If you want something done right, do it yourself). So here's the frame, I have all these big idea's Ride Tech, Stage two system, 18" wheels etc. Or put the new windows & siding on the house that I have been promising the wife I would do. Since I made the promise to upgrade the house I have bought the 91 truck, built a 26' x 30' x 10' garage and bought a 69 Dodge Dart 340 4spd car. I'm not sure how much more she'll take. Anyway here is where this phase of the project starts "again", we'll see where it goes.

[tobenk]

Well u have to start some where. Looks like u got a good one to start with.
Good luck with it. :thumbsup:

[PASD U]

$45??? Awwww man, I passed up a $100 frame for my Chevelle a few months ago and I was kicking myself for that. I'm REALLY jealous you managed to find a frame for your project for 45. Good thing about that is, you really can go as slow or fast as you want without having to worry about keeping the truck down for long periods of time AND you can work directly on the frame without having to be up under it. :thumbsup:

[70rs]

Summers almost here. You don't really need windows or siding during that season right?:D

[PASD U]

What are your ultimate plans for it?

[SS350Sport]

I started tearing the truck down last weekend. I will probably go back with the leaf spring suspension for now (money or lack of) 4/6 drop. I'll put poly bushings where I can and I picked up a rear sway bar from a 99 Tahoe that will be installed. I'll post pics of the sway fab and install. Here are pics of the tear down.

http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k230/Challenger73_2006/1991ChevTruck/d41536ab.jpg

See, I do own jack stands....

[Muscle Car PWR]

Way cool. Just seeing these pics reminds me of about 6 and half months ago when mine was in a million pieces scattered about my garage and driveway. It's going to be a neat project Richard. These look good with a 4/6.

[PASD U]

Looks like where I should be. Looks like fun too. Would be nice if we all lived near one another. Imagine how helpful that would be. In my head I'm counting Five of these projects going on.

I have plans for a 4/6 drop too. I go back and forth daily ,and sometimes hourly, on if I'm going to just do a 4/6 for now or wait it out and do a full RideTech suspension or do a hybrid (say Shockwaves up front and flip kit in the rear) until the budget allows. Haven't decided.

To you guys who have experience...which end of the suspension plays the most part in comfort level?

[Muscle Car PWR]

Air is nice and the adjustability is great. The simplicity of a 4/6 or a 5/7 is cool too. A 5/7 with bushings and bars and good shocks and that is a solid route too.

I'd like to do another CK with a 5/7 and 18-inch Americans. Okay maybe 20's but 5-spokes with a grey center. They are bitchin trucks either way whether hammered static or on air.

[SS350Sport]

Here are some pictures of the rear sway I snagged @ Pick N Pull last weekend. It's from a 99 Tahoe. I Also tried to get the mounts from the rearend by using an 18V sawsall to slice the shock/sway bar mounts from the rear end housing. The axles were already out. After bending three blades I gave up. I will just fab up some mounts in the stock location on the rear end. It looks like a direct bolt in, no need to shorten the link rods. I also have to correct the pinion angle. The previous owner welded the leafspring pads in the wrong angle. I am going to do most of the fab work using the old frame, before I start transferring parts to the new frame.

I worked on brackets for the sway bar last week end. I was also going to purchase and install a smooth front bumper w/recessed license plate, but decided to just smooth mine and recess the plate. Saves me a couple of bills, and I don't have to store the old one. Here are a few pictures.

Man, I need to learn how to fabricate. :hail:

It might sound cheesy or something, but I always said if The Law down here in Texas MADE me run a front plate, I'd buy one of the smoothies with the recess off to one side. I hate front plates to begin with and to me the assymetric look on the front helps keep that smooooth accentuation to the nose. Now in the back I think it only looks right centered. Hahaha:P

[tobenk]

Lookin good. :thumbsup:

[SS350Sport]

I put the rear end back in place today to locate the new spring perches, and bolted up the sway bar to make sure everything fit right. Remember I am doing the mock-up on the old frame before I xfer everything to the new (old) frame. The old perches had the rear pinion pointing 5 degrees up. Everything seems to fit really well. Now I can get the cab off and really start getting after it.

I planned on posting this mid week, got busy and posted the old stuff with some updates from today (Sunday 27)....

The frame, control arms, sway bars, front bumper & misc parts are back from blasting. They done a really thorough job on all the parts, they even got inside the frame.

I have been using Evapo-Rust to remove surface rust from all of the nuts & bolts. This stuff works really well. I could blast them but I don't want to change the profile on them. Here is a shot of the pitman arm nut & washer

I replaced uca & lca bushings and painted them last weekend. I will post picks of the paint later.

Today (Sunday)....

Here are the control arms, sway bar & rear end being painted. I used Summits semi gloss chassis paint. It seems to be some pretty decent stuff for the money. I put all of the urethane bushings in and masked them off prior to painting.

Finally got a roller again. Now it's on to the engine. I have a question, is anyone or has anyone ran the polyurethane cab mounts from Energy Suspension? I bought a master kit and it has cab mounts. I want to keep the truck quite inside and thought these might induce some road noise into the cab. What are you thoughts?

[BlackenedRR]

I'd say with enough Dynamat or FatMat, the road noise shouldn't be an issue. But I've never used or ridden in a truck with those mounts, so I'm just guessin'...

[ccreddell]

Im with Jeff.....

[tobenk]

I was wonderin too.

[N2TRUX]

I want to keep the truck quite inside and thought these might induce some road noise into the cab. What are you thoughts?Lets start with how sweet the frame is looking. I love the sheen that the Summit paint has. I have been using Eastwood products for years, but I think they just got bumped out.

Unless you want potential for resonance transfer in to your cab I would not use Urethane bushings. You might have a bit more body flex with standard rubber bushings, but they will absorb exhaust resonance much better than the rock hard urethane bushings.

[SS350Sport]

I started cleaning the underside of the cab last night, in preparation for paint.

Here's a before & after, took about 8 hours off and on after work. Does anyone know if any OBS cabs came with a heat shield for the drivers side under cab. I plan on running long tube headers with cats right at the collectors. Should be easy to fab one also.

I would use the stock replacement cab mounts. The GMT400 GM chassis is sensitive to the cab mounts. The build looks good I always liked those trucks.

[ccreddell]

My problem has always been that I hate it when the body lines dont line up. The stock mounts sag after a time and then the bed sits higher than the cab. I would run the urethane mounts and deal with the sound issues with dynamat or something.

[SS350Sport]

Courtesy of the big brown truck & Summit Racing. I am starting to put the motor back together. I bought a small cam Extreme Energy 249, I want the truck to be reliable and tame. I also went with a set of Headman Elite long tubes, 14ga tubes, 3/8" flanges. These things weigh as much or more than the stock manifolds.

I wish GM started using the zinc coating on it's body panels a long time ago. (I guess it's zinc) anyway nice project.

[SS350Sport]

It’s been a while since I updated. I finished the heat shield for the drivers side under the cab. I put the long block back together. New valve seals, springs, retainers & keeper's, new cam & lifters Comp XE249. New oil pump, oil pump drive shaft w/steel collar, Eddy 3704 intake, Headman Elite HTC long tubes, 46mm TBI, adjustable FPR (Ultimate TBI mods.) etc. Headers were a very tight fit near the frame and UCA mount. I had to tape the areas and pound on them with a 1lb hammer to get enough clearance. There’s nothing like pounding on a set of new $300 dollar headers. I am very impressed with the strength of the coating, no chips, cracks or blems.

That is going to be a gorgeous truck when finished, I cant wait to reach the same point you are at now, Ive just got my s10 frame back from sandblasting.

[SS350Sport]

Just a teaser, a poor man has poor ways. I put the cab back on to mock up and install the exhaust. I ran out of mandrel 90's and made me some "paper & tape" 45's to keep going. I laid out a 45 on a 90 and wrapped it with a layer of paper and masking tape. I cut it down the inside seam, took it off and taped it back together. I'll post more pictures when I have time.

Here are some pictures of the exhaust. I still need to do the tail pipes after the bed is back on. I used "Stove paint" it's good to 1000 deg. F. up to 1200. I used the met dark silver. It dries to the touch in 20 min. and needs 300 Deg. F to cure. It got to 300 during the cam break in.

It's all looking good. When do you think you'll be finished?

Just need to take the cab back off and paint everything. I'm looking at @ 4K for paint, cut & polish. Or try it my self for @ $1800. Not sure which way I'll go yet. The plan is to paint the bottom of the cab & bed and see how that turns out then go from there.

When I bought mine, the plan was to use it as a test mule for moving up to painting my Chevelle. I still want the truck to come out DD nice but I won't expect perfection from myself on it. The Chevelle will be a different story. I also bought some cheap spare body panels for the truck. I figure the body panels will be like kindergarden, the truck middle school and the Chevelle college...all as far as painting is concerned. :rofl:

Are you going with a mild or wild color?

Stock RED, maybe a black stripe on the hood like "Operation Muscle Truck".

Just became a member after seeing your truck. I have a red 90 sport that we do SCCA autocross with. We went to the RTTM hosted by Brain finch and the truck amazed a lot of people.

That's pretty cool. What's your set-up? any pictures of the motor or suspension?

It's hard to believe that it's been 3 years since I have updated this thread. I have been working on the truck off & on, more off. Here are some chronological updates.

I modified the air cleaner housing using a stainless mixing bowl from the kitchen
