After 3 tries I finally got a good 4l80e the first try was from lkq the pan was full of metal, so they sent me another one from up north some where and it was a 4l60e so I called them and they said we don't have any more 4l80e and will come and get and give you your money back, so I went to another yard and got one for $200 less and it  only has 30,000 miles.  Painted  the tb and belt tensor and installed a arp crank pulley bolt. Yesterday swapped over the suspension from the good frame to my truck so I can start cleaning up and painting the parts, also will be replacing the floor pans the first time I  used the cover over pans, so I picked up some pans from the forum store so  I pulled the gas tank from my truck and gutted the interior, wile was tearing down the suspension my dad was pulling out the patch panels and started cutting out the driver side pan

didn't get much done today because of this

I left the three inch drop springs in for a simple install

and for some reason the floor pans are really short where they start to angle up so it looks like have to cut some metal off the old patch panels

you should have ordered the extended floor not the standard floor.

oh I was going by picture in your store
mine stops at the red line

[Captkaos]

Really!  Was it labeled 0850-223?  Did it have the backing plate? 

This one would have laid in the hole:

[Flamingbig10]

it has 850-223 wrote in black marker



and got the driver side floor pan cut out and will have to make a new channel for the weather stripping it was rotted out

[Flamingbig10]

cleaned and painted the steering parts today I picked up new grade 8 hardware for the steering box,idler arm, and disc brake valve

I will check on that pan, but it wouldn't have covered as much as you need.

I got rear diff and flip kit swapped out but I'll need to install new leaf spring bushings, center pin, new rear shocks since my beltecs are shot I believe I use front shocks maybe some Monroe's, install new brake line and repaint every thing
