Same experience here. The rotors that make up the disc brake conversion for the '55 carried a '70s Chevelle part number. Garbage. The power steering conversion used an early '80s Chevy Celebrity rack! All came from Eckler’s Classic Chevy. Never again. ---

^It’s kind of funny how the Cayenne is the result of what would happen if you mixed together a 911, RS6, and F250. Talk about using the right tool for the job eh? ---

[quote=“jay\_g,post:792,topic:226599"”] Is the ranger 4x4 or 2wd. I thought I remember you mentionit was 2wd. How is it in the snow? [/quote] It’s 2WD, I built a frame that sits in the bed and my father managed to get some 2" steel plates that I have right over the axle, so about 250lbs. With that and the beefy winter tires it actually does very well in the snow. Haven’t been stuck yet.

ive done a ton of research on suspension in the past week. im not doing lowering blocks im going with a 2.5" drop spindle disc brake conversion and a 2" lowering spring for the front for the rear im going with a 6" drop spring. the suspension comes with proper matching struts all around and also rear shock relocation setup and track bar setup yes discs started in 71 this is a chevy with a gmc tailgate - - - Updated - - - @95dime ---
