    Pulling an axle?

    Ok now I understand your issues and reasoning... If you get kicked in the nuts enough time, they will turn black and fall off.

    K10 front leveling

    They have grease jerk bolts as well. AND the 1/2 longer shackles. No shims needed with shackles or Zero rate. Don't be afraid to ask ORD for their take. They are very helpful and with years of square suspension experience.

    K10 front leveling

    No that's way too long. 1/2 longer and that's all... and it won't raise your front end really. These trucks do benefit from increased camber and trail, but only what you achieve with that extra 1/2". Mid '80s one ton trucks had this mod. Since you're spring are new I would go with HotRod's...

    Another episode of whats this connector?

    I like to splice that #8 wire to a switch. Brake lite defeat. You can use your imagination as to why this can be beneficial.

    37s on a half ton with a 12 bolt with 4.10 gears

    Glad to help. You notice how a lift spring has arch to it. Well what happens when it compresses? It gets longer. And without extra shackle length the rear leaf eye will smack the frame. THAT is why old school lift spring have such higher spring rates... to prevent them from compressing enough to...

    37s on a half ton with a 12 bolt with 4.10 gears

    Ok I'm messing with ya Isaak. I'm answering a question you haven't asked yet, however you did ask if a 10 bolt would hold up. And ... no. :Nonono: But there is always someone who will argue. Because, of all the ways a truck can be used and abused. Even 32" tires can meet metal if you twist it...

    SAE or synthetic

    I prefer cheaper oil changed OFTEN, rather than expensive oils left too long. I rode 4 stroke dirt bikes for years.. '02 - '10 I had three KTM's, 520, 525 and a 450. These are close tolerance engines and factory insists on Motul synth only. Four stroke motorcycle oil has higher heat ratings...

    Anyone install truetrak limited slip?

    The only locker you want is one you can unlock, like and ARB. Otherwise, a TT limited slip is a great choice.

    Brake Issues - RPO codes

    They are certainly a different shape. The pumpkin on the full floater is more angular making it taller for the larger ring gear. You lose a bit of ground clearance. You may have heard about 'shaving a 14 bolt'? There's enough meat on the bottom corner it can be cut off and the welded up and the...

    Thanks Derek. Ok so a semi-floater is just your average differential then, like a 10/12 bolt. I thought it was something between this and a full floater.

    Brake Issues - RPO codes

    Ok I was wrong, there must be C clips like any other non floated axle housing. I don't get what makes it 'semi-floating'. Time to pull up a schematic. This is one of those questions that has been bugging me for years and I never unpacked it.

    That's the 9.5 semi floater. As I mentioned in my email you can pull the axles after you remove the wheels. Hopefully someone can verify.. I have not actually done this before. Look at the end caps of the axle behind the wheel. Does it look like a full floater only larger? Bolts..? Sorry I'm...
