Default G Machine Truck

I have been looking for a while and can't seem to find a definite answer.

I am building a 76 SWB, and am looking to go the G-Machine direction with it. I know that a truck is not really the best platform for such a thing, but its what I want to do.

What front and rear suspension would be best for this? I know I will not be able to find any direct fit products out there, but I will be able to figure something out.

Thanks for everyones help, DOOCE

It's an excellent platform. Then again, I'm biased. Anyway, take a look at building a vew chassis. Trucks can be some of the easiest chassis to build because they are mostly parallel rails. You can the use parts from many of the vendors here to complete the package. Just my opinion. Good luck. How about some picks of the truck you are starting with?

Do try getting in contact with Clint at KP Components. He may have a good direction for you to start looking.

800-722-2269 ext 289. He's on the road a lot but he's a very good place to start.
