5.9L Cummins in 93 Chevy 4x4
what an extensive conversion.
I've had the engine set, bolted up to the NV4500 for about 2 months now, lacking only time. Can't seem to get any time from work (ah-a fellow complaining he has a job..) I plan to do the remainder of the conversion in July on my vacation time.
--driveshaft has been shortened and balanced. $38 (good price)
--Need to line up cross members and drill holes. EZ.
--140 AMP Nippon Denso alternator converted to internal regulator and tach pickup $75
--need to pull the PS pump and braze in a 3d return fitting.
--still have to fit and plumb the Dodge cummins intercooler.
--still have to order 2"body lift kit. Can't close the hood now. Will also provide room over the transmission bell housing area for work..
Who has the best 2" body lift kit?
