THANK YOU MAN... i truly appreciate that
i just really like saying "yes, i built that"

plus i'm to poor yo buy a nice one and do what i want... i paid $400 and a t56 trans for this truck with a CLEAN AND CLEAR title... it have a rebuilt 4l60e with a new converter in it with the receipt for $26xx from AAMCO in the glove box and that is the trans that i used in my crew cab when i put it together the trans only had 6000 miles on it!!

honestly... cheaper and proven

i bought all the suspension off my friends truck he sold... his 2002 GMC truck went consistent 1.3x-1.4x depending on the track with a 408ci and a 175shot
he is installing it all and scaling it for me...

i live in Hattiesburg Mississippi
and as far as the cost of the TH400 it is $2699 from COAN TRANSMISSION but i picked it up REfreshed from a member for $1200 and i got the PTC converter for $950

why would you rather the drag bars over the 4 link?
