BACARDI_DWB Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 everything will be custom, take a look at a few 510 swaps in the project forums before you start this huge task. but before that introduce yourself, your ride, and show some pictures, most guys here are fueled to help after pictures are shown hehe.

datzenmike Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 You'll have to replace the driveshaft and rear end. The 210s H-150 is not going to cut it. Quote Link to comment

Be prepared to put in all your effort. Even if you are getting close to complete dont take a break. The break will last way too long... I think there is a saying when it comes to projects that the last 10% is what people usually dont finish/lose interest or motivation/takes the longest Which ever route you choose have extra funds available, try not to tear it all apart before you have the parts to replace it. If you will need a few weeks off (vacation or likewise) bag and label you bolt/nuts, hell do this anyways. Having extra bolts after you put something back together is not a good thing. (dont claim weight saving :P) My comments arent so much directed at just you, just anyone taking on a bigger automotive project. Enjoy. Quote Link to comment
