    Project: Nasty Bastard

    Alright if a mod could move the pics from Karl's thread to here that would be sweet.

    My current plans after Clayton were to continue with the frickoneer. I was going to swap in a t-18/ Dana 20 combo, install tbi, mount winch, narrow, tube, and try to not make it such a turd. It was gonna cost a small fortune to do and in the end I would still have a jeep with a rusty arse frame.

    While doing my normal craigslist search I found this rig/turd the verdict is still out on what to call it.

    Specs:
    78 half ton cab and frame
    frame has been bobbed 23 inches
    91 tbi 350
    78 sm465
    78 np 205
    rear mounted radiator with dual fans
    exo cage made from pipe
    10 bolt front and rear with 4.88's, rear is welded
    round driveshafts front and rear
    dual alternators- stock new stock chevy 90 amp, and 195 amp aftermarket one
    dual batterys
    stock leaves in the back, 4 inch superlift fronts
    setup mounts for f/r 8274
    two Hella 55 watt lights
    dual exhaust with flowmasters
    huge 35-40 gallon tank with tbi sending unit
    no flex- Thanks lift springs

    Bad
    No flex
    Pipe Exo( plus it looks ugly)
    Rusted floor boards and spots on the cab
    huge fuel tank
    No isolated for dual batteries
    No rear brakes- ie they removed them

    Things it needs to wheel the creek and other mild places
    Warranty two batteries
    Go to junkyard and get brakes

    Oh yeah it cost less than what I have invested in the Frickoneer at this point

    Fill cooler

    What it

    Oh yeah the motor was rebuilt 4-5 years ago when he first built he truck into a wheeler. Sits on 35/16/15 boogers on 15x10 chrome wheels. Tires have varying tread from 50% to New. Wheelbase is supposedly at 101".

    Truck seems to run good, engine seems to be in good shape. The TBI wiring is interesting in a good way. That was one thing I was afraid of, I did not Frick to have some chopped together harness, and while it is not a perfect harness, it is better than some hack jobs. The guy removed a steering column, computer, and engine from a 1991 suburban. He then installed the column, engine, and computer. Then the wiring harness pretty much "plugged and played". The down side is none of the dash stuff works, but on a rig like this you really just need headlights and wipers.

    I would think you could hook up most of the dash stuff. At least you should be able to find places to stick the stock oil and coolant sensors. This is if he didn't hack that wiring off.

    Interestingly, the guy said a 1987 dash would bolt in place of the 78 dash and hook up to everything.

    The dash gauges are 1 wire hookups that are completely independent of the TBI ****. Get a coaster manual and trace wiring harnesses.
