    Energy Suspension bushing fitment

    you don't want that slop in your bushing. measure your top bushing they should be the same. you can trim the lower one but it should match the top one. if trimming it makes it to too short get different bushings. highdesertranger

    Stubborn like a man who needs directions but refuses to ask

    you have a factory heat only set up with an aftermarket AC. it appears all the factory heater parts are there however the hoses are disconnected leading one to believe a leaking core. I have never seen a heater only truck with dash vents. highdesertranger

    Dually wheel questions

    well all you will get from me is to fix it the right way. I won't give bad advice even if that's what you want to hear. what kind of spacer did you use on the rear? BTW if those are Ford rims they don't work no matter what you think. the hole in the center doesn't match your hubs and that is...

    Dually wheel questions

    if you have the wrong rims why not fix that. you shouldn't be running Ford rims on a Chevy anyway the hub is a different size. with tires that wide doesn't the rear tires rub on each other. highdesertranger

    Dually wheel questions

    is it lifted? did you install the correct drag link parts, either a block or a dropped pitman arm? if you did and it's adjusted properly you need to adjust the steering stop. the little bolt on your steering knuckle. note, factory these are welded and not adjustable. remove it and put an...

    What Transfer Case Is This??

    the thing I don't like about a slip yoke beside being weaker. in an emergency if you ever need to remove the rear drive shaft and drive off the front, you can't do it with a slip yoke. highdesertranger

    Front Rear Shackle Frame Bushing

    the easiest way to get them out is to burn them out. take a torch and light them on fire, once lit they will burn on their own. it's a stinky smoky mess but they will burn right out. then take a punch to the steel sleeve and drive it out, taking care to not mar the bushing retainer...
