    Transfer Case Brace

    For the above post here is a view of the Tejas crossmember from the front. It looks like there is plenty of room for exhaust/shaft.

    USA1 Industries door panels

    Yeah, I could see that being an issue. I think in the dash post there is someone else that has been waiting on a check with a lot of run around for a minute.

    USA1 Industries door panels

    I’ve had these on the shelf for several months now and dug them out for a look as I never even opened the box. I ordered a set of skins from LMC but getting here they seem meh. I know there’s a lot of crapping on USA about shipping times but based off door panels it’s probably worth it. I may...

    C10 to K20 Body Swap – Driveline Issues

    This should help a little with crossmember placement. As you can see there is a good bit of swing throughout them and its not a 1 place and done ordeal. It doesnt cover manual trans setups though.

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    Was mostly busy yesterday and today but found a little time. Had to change the connector for the trans output speed. Starting to install the Vintage Air system so we can find a place to mount the trans controller.

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    A little update as I’m starting to route the wiring. I’m using the DD temp/oil senders and the wiring with them. I also went ahead and will be running the factory wiring for factory style units but capping them off near where they terminate. To get the 2 cables for these senders in we will...

    4L60E Information Thread (Includes 4L65/70/75)

    A little update on my situation for those that might be interested. Sure I could have just bought the LT based unit (single piece case) and moved on by shelving this unit but lets accept the challenge. You will need a dust cover- Chev Perf part # 19332783 (this is listed as a manual trans...

    15"x10" Truck Rallys

    There are 2 sets around me in Texas for sale on FBMP but I also had a set pop up on fleabay. They aren't cheap though.

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    I plan on using mechanical link and a factory style gear position but the TCU has an option for it. I was originally going to get the speed and tach off the DD unit for the TCI unit but flipping it around to get the speed and tach to the DD from the TCI.

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    I haven’t forgotten about this but ran into a roadblock. #1- the Trans controller I received from summit was a return I guess before I got it. Someone swapped the 4L60e harness with a harness from a 2009+ unit. Luckily I caught it based off checking the part number before installing...

    Can't figure out this harness

    Give this a gander as it may help. ITs an aftermarket harness but has some useful stuff in the drawings and they used a lot of the same factory colors. https://static.summitracing.com/global/images/instructions/aww-510706.pdf This one might be the better fit for the 81...

    Replace Steel Dash

    NVM, stumbled across the actual LMC page, 3 different year sets. As a twist to this, on a 81+ how do you handle the VIN plate?

    Door Jamb Switch Restoration

    You can also get them from American Autowire. For $11/each I would have a hard time messing with an old one. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/AWW-500100

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    Count yourself lucky as the sniper is trash. I had a full setup on my other K with AA harness and DD gauges. The third time she left me hanging I dropped it and went back to a carb. I was considering running the Terminator on this ride because I need to control a 4L80e but decided to go...

    Dakota Digital install with American Autowire harness- ETA adding TCI 4L60E control to the install

    ETA- not sure how this ended up on Tech as I thought I posted it in the gauge section. I have this going on with my project and figured some might be interested. I’m installing a full American Autowire harness and also using a Dakota Digital gauge setup. Some of this may help if you are...

    4L60E Information Thread (Includes 4L65/70/75)

    I get what you are saying but I don’t think you understand what the Summit outlet is. Scratch/dent and some returns but it’s a scratch/dent unit as the pan had a damaged corner resulting in a good discount. It’s the exact unit posted in the link above. And as far as look/leap it would/will...

    4L60E Information Thread (Includes 4L65/70/75)

    lol I’m a sucker for a possible good deal at the summit outlet ($750). I was trying to find a trans that would fit the NP241c I have and it fit the bill. originally I was going to stuff it behind my 2022 5.3 LT engine but lost interest in the swap. Im less than $1700 into it with...

    4L60E Information Thread (Includes 4L65/70/75)

    I have the trans that was on the link in the prev post. It appears to be one for an LS with the 300mm torque converter interface. I put it back in yesterday using a normal SBc flex plate (bolts don’t line up but it’s ok as she isn’t close to running yet) but also back ordered the Chevy...

    4L60E Information Thread (Includes 4L65/70/75)

    What is needed to drop a 4L60E in behind a later TBI style 5.7? This is the transmission I have Currently thinking just the trans spacer but cannot find the right flex plate. I have the TCI controller already.

    Replacement Cab

    You may come out ahead looking for non running trucks etc. Try to find just a cab you will probably run into things where someone stripped it down then found themselves in your position so decided to sell. Trucks like this pop up around me a lot the floors are decent but it needs some corner...

    2 tone paint line

    I haven't even considered the pin stripe setup. I was thinking white stripe from the body line to the middle of the front marker and back where the trim usually covers.

    2 tone paint line

    I am getting close to throwing paint at my project as I am working the 400 grit sand currently on high build. I want to do blue with a white stripe and looking around it appears the 70's kind of followed the body line but the 80's seem to be higher. Is there a paint layout guide out there...

    Factory A/C Conversion for '86

    I’ve got an 86 coming up on year 2 of running. I bought it in pieces vs the kit. We set it up to use an R4 and have had zero issues or complaints. My current build is getting the same treatment.
