Well, the plan is to get her running as is with the 14 bolt semi floater. Ad 14mm stud up front and get it upgraded to a 3/4 ton. Then I can drop the 3/4 ton engine in it. That is how Kali works guys. The engine must be from the same class vehicle (3/4 to 3/4 and of the same or newer year) Nice thing if it s goes that way it will be smog exempt from then on (pre 96 for diesels)Same reason I can swap the 2002 5.3 truck motor into my 87 El Camino. Elky is classed as a truck her, the 5.3 is newer and from a 1/2 truck and will then be smogged as a 2002.Believe me I hate this stuff too, but moving as a whole in the near future is out. But I have a hand out for some land in NV. Heck I even just got screwed on buying my service weapon I carried for 20 years. Was told $329 with a 3 15rnd mags, but they wouldn't give them to since I retired 3 months ago. So I paid the $329, then it ran another $85 for background, Tax, DRO and had to wait 10 days to get it.Only light here is the Gov. who likes 3 gun by the way vetoed a bill that would have made every Kalifornian register any and all weapons without a serial number, retroactive!! And we know that every law abiding citizen would have, just like the bad guys.
So, Bobby...being the calculating trained warrior NCO that you are. Take the appropriate action, Execute!
your standard grunt level CQB is just putting rounds and rounds on scary stuff till it stops scaring you!

You can not escape the DOT's, we are every where...........:D
I got a line going on the first one. Looks like a clean cali truck with a clear DIESEL title, 3/4 ton. Only bad is it has a tailgate and a red interior. He is already dropped it some but this maybe good for a body swap.Thoughts??
I'm waiting for more pictures, it will have a corp 10 bolt front and a SF 14 bolt in back. Both will come out for a dana 60 and 14b FF and of course the 6btNo engine or tranny and the tires/wheels in the picture are not on it.I don't like;Back fees due of around $200 (plus Ca tax and a 400 mile drive)Red InteriorTailgateI do like;California truck=no rust!!!I prefer the GMC grill to the Chevy3/4 ton=heavier frame, Pre 96 diesel, no smog ever but still a legal swap here in KALI.Will have PS brake booster already.With all this it could be an good frame swap. I mean its a few plugs and what, 6 bolts for the body? I would want the front end off for the swap anyway. Sure wish I had a BIG GARAGE!!! I would get my clean barn door body with nice interior, keep the GMC grill and it would be perfect!
