[QUOTE="6.0 p-stroke, post: 992452, member: 242"] Ok I'm bringing this one back from the dead. I've got an 04 cab & chassis single cab truck, and an engine, trans and a tcase. And I've still got the 79 Bronco that hasn't moved in a year or so. My plans were to chop the frame and make a shorty, but the body is rough and after collecting the panels to fix it I'd still have to buy a short bed and get it all painted. So I figure I've basically got everything to get my dream project rolling (I think) and it's never going to get done if I don't get started. Here is a plan I've been working up in my head... I'm going to get an engine in the truck and get it started, after that I will strip all of the wiring and computer out of the truck and try to get it running with no body on the chassis. After that I figure I will need to chop and shorten the frame to match the length of the bronco body, then its a matter of getting all of the wiring and computers stuffed into the bronco body and getting the body set onto the chassis. I imagine I will have to do some firewall and floor pan modifications and new body mounts but I'll have the superduty suspension to handle the weight and power. So what do you guys think? Am I on the right path? I've been researching other 6.0 swaps and I still can't figure out how much of the 6.0 wiring I will need to make the truck run and drive correctly. If anyone has useful information from similar swaps it would be much appreciated! I want to have all of my ducks in a row before getting in over my head, thanks! [/QUOTE]
