    Quickchange Rear Ends for Square Bodies

    QC's are sexy as hell. And, easier to spell QC correct than "aXLe".

    Rear shackle angle

    Lol. I was just looking at the photos again and I agree because of the springs arch. I went thru something similar on my D60 on the front but it had flat springs and bends the other way. My bad.

    Rear shackle angle

    So now when the spring compresses the shackle moves forward. In doing so, it's gonna lift the truck because of the pivot point location. Will it matter? Not if you don't know any better.

    Heavy vibration at highway speed under load

    If it doesn't have much engagement and there is any wear on the splines that will also cause an issue. My unseated bearing resulted in about 1/16th of an inch in perceptible radial play. It doesn't take much to cause a viration.

    1985 Long Bed Floor and Bedsides

    I have questions on how you separated the pieces. Are they all bolted together or is there any cutting flanges/spot welds to separate them?

    Heavy vibration at highway speed under load

    It's gotta be a wear item if it just started. Bearings or bushings. I had a very similar issue that took me months to figure out. A loose bearing on the output shaft of the t-case. I know you don't have a t-case but I'd surmise the same issue could happen with the output shaft of the...

    Ignition Switch (Tilt Column)

    On a similar note without hijacking the OPs thread I have a question. My manual trans, non-tilt (not that it matters) has become quite tight to turn the key when starting. IIRC doesn't the cylinder rotate and a rod pushes the actual ignition switch located lower on the column? I'm just wondering...

    RockAuto- 4x4 front drive shaft, '81 K20 -Rock Auto

    Isn't the 88 and newer IFS and metric? It wouldn't come close to fitting. But what about the K30's, Blazers and Burbs, did they not continue the same body style and drivetrain thru 91? But ya, looks like Dorman screwed this up.

    1985 K2500 Build/LS Swap

    Wow. We got a lot in common. I have an 85 K20. It also wants an LS someday. Prior to the truck I had an 87 elco built as a "pro-touring" car/truck thing. 9 inch ford, 12 inch discs all around, B-body spindles, Hotchkiss A-arms....blah blah blah. I called it the "Mullet". My bananas not bruised...

    Loose steering,is this normal

    Replace all wear items in the front suspension. Convert the steering shaft to the Jeep type and lose the rag joint in the process. Make sure frame isn't cracked where the steering box mounts. Set toe to 1/16th inch toe IN. Carry on.

    You could put one of those slat billet type phantom grills in? Just kidding. Even the blind hate those! Apologies to the blind.

    I like the color of your interior. Is that like an avocado green? Oh and good job with thinking outside the box. I've been contemplating buying a printer just for experimenting.

    454 ACDelco water pump

    $200 for an acdelco is ridiculous. That brand isn't what it used to be. They have outsourced everything like everyone else to stay alive. I'd take duralast over them 100% of the time. If you want quality, it seems the small US companies are the way to go. Moroso, Tuff Stuff, PowerMaster, etc...
