"Big Bolt NAPCO stuff comes up on eBay from time to time. THAT would make for an easy bolt on functional conversion..."

I'll have to keep an eye out for them in case I go that route instead.

"The rear axle off the P-30 should work fine, just make sure to get the same axle ratio as your front D-60.

A good idea would be to get a 465 with attached transfer case from a Blazer or GM pickup. Problem solved."

Thanks, that kinda what I'm leaning to do at the moment, I may re-gear to a 3.73 but depend what I can find.

Are you keeping the motor or going diesel maybe?

I thought about diesel several times, I can't make up my mind, at the moment it gonna be a turbo LS 6.0.

When I get it here, (I gotta get a garage built here in the next year or so) I'm gonna sell the motor and the front and rear axles to someone who could use them, but it gonna be couple years til I get to that point.

I kinda want to do something different with this truck, I'm not going make it a mudding truck. just make it look more like a NAPCO truck with modern brakes and 19.5 stock looking wheels, modern LS engine and enjoy driving this beast.
