    Whats Gears Should i Run

    How serious is your 383, and what kind of teacher made this recommendation? Your 10 bolt may survive, but I would throw the stock carrier in the scrap pile first thing. Upgrade the carrier, a pair of axle shafts, and a cover with a built in carrier bearing girdle. Couple that with QUALITY...

    Modern full floating swap

    Another thing you might consider is the driveline parking brake found on the rear of a TH475. If you're running a TH400, that would enable you to put standard calipers on the back. I'm going to be running standard K20 calipers with a High Angle Driveline parking brake on the back of my NP241

    Shackle Flip Lift ???

    DIY4X flip and switch is a better product, IMO. Easier to tinge shackle length and angle.

    SOLD $500 6.2 Burb in Woodstock, VA Buy it, or it's being scrapped.

    Preaching to the choir man. I've got 5 trucks in various stages of disassembly our disrepair. Even my once daily driven K1500 is down for the count. My kids come first, and I work a ton. Leaves not much time for "me" stuff, and it gets to you. Not having the money for the "me" stuff its the...

    new truck new problem

    Do some research.... Dig into it and find out what's wrong with it for yourself. It's always best to assume that the previous owner is a total moron. Could be just the oil drain holes I'm the heads gunked up, causing oil to back up in the valve cover, then getting into the cylinder from a...

    Talk me into or out of TBI

    I was getting 20 out of my 92 C1500 with a 5.7 tbi too. Have thought about putting another one like it together. I miss that little truck.

    Any of you fine folks...

    I ran an old Western conventional mount on my 77 and my 80. Recently have been rethinking my plans to put a 93 cab on my 80 chassis, which would put the old plow right back onto the chassis. Found my mount parts through Ebay, craigslist, and a local trader paper when I needed them. The...

    Quick question on ball joint replacement

    I don't remember right off the top of my head, but make sure you get the special socket for the ball joint taper inside the inner c. If you don't back it out before you torque the lower ball joint, you'll never get either of the joints torqued properly. Back the taper out, torque the lower...

    mud truck wiring harness

    Lights and radio? I thought you said this was a mud truck? You're adding a lot of different things there, and one problem I see you're going to run into, with the alternator, it will backfeed, and the truck will not turn off when you flip the ignition switch. What circuits ate you wanting to...

    Diesel swap ideas

    Actually looked into a Powerstroke 7.3 swap into my 90 K3500 (I have a 5 speed from a 7.3 truck, and a transfer case sitting in the shop). Same with the Duramax, it's a very complicated swap electrically. Keep it simple, and use a mechanical diesel engine. Have also looked into using a...

    You can actually get to .550 without cutting guides, with a spring retainer swap IIRC.

    shackle flip?

    the shackle at the rear of the spring is definitely a better design, for ride quality purposes. with the shackle at the front of the spring, as you hit a bump the actual will try and push forward ( as the front mount is the one that is not solid) into whatever you're trying to go over. this...

    1986 Chevy K10 - sucks for power :(

    3.42s would be a best case scenario... Most of them got 2.73 or 3.08 gears.

    Air conditioner removal.

    Replace the hoses, and the condenser, chase the wiring for the compressor. It's not a complicated system at all. If you convert to R134a, it's legal, and cheap to charge your own AC system.
