    Transfer case gaskets

    So, I ordered a seal kit for my transfer case, np208. I think I installed the large gaskets backwards. The gasket that goes between the 700r4 and the adaptor, and the gasket that goes between the adaptor and transfer case. Does anyone know which one goes to which side? I'm guessing they are side...

    Front axle off set to passenger side

    I know this is an old tread, but here goes. I had the same issue with my 86 k10. For years, that axle issue bothered the f*%k out of me. Nothing I ever thought of worked, until now. So I decided to bite the bullet, and spend the mula, and do a crossover steering setup on my rig. I also added a...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Just finished up the crossover steering on my rig. Added the panhard bar. OMG! What a difference in control. Even with the 24x14, and 35 15.50 R24s. UNBELIEVABLE!

    Front shackle bushings

    I'm looking to replace my front shackle bushings on my 86 k10. Does anybody have of the correct part number that's required? I put new spring eye bushings, Prothane brand, and the shackles don't line up evenly. The spring bushings are a bit wider than the stock shackle bushing.

    Differential swap

    I have a rear differential with disk brakes out of a 2004 tahoe. I'm thinking about putting it into my 86 k10. Can it be done without alot of Fab work. I know it will have to be cleaned up, and the perches will have to be welded in place,. But it does have the same gear ratio as my front 10...

    3/4 ton axle swap

    My truck had factory 3.08s, I swapped front and rear axles from a 1989 k10 suburban with 3.73s. Everything was a direct swap, and I kept my nice 6 lug wheels. There is big difference in power to the ground between 3.08sand 3.73s, especially if you have tall tires. I have a thread on the swap...

    Rough running, then no start after head gasket swap

    I had the same issue when I replaced the heads on my Yukon. I had over adjusted the rockers. I loosened them up a bit and fired right up and stayed running.

    Just bought a 1995 GMC C1500

    I did, she had a temporary, 30 day permit on her windsheild, which leads me to believe she didn't have insurance. I also contacted the DMV and notified them of the crime. I hope she's driving around with a suspended temporary permit, and gets stopped by the police, and gets it towed away. and it...
