    Cracked 6" superlift front leafspring

    I have had that happen to me back in the past on one of my old square's. The pieces can work their way out over time and fall out going down the road. I would not mess around with that on the front. Remove both front springs and go to a spring shop and have them add a new leaf with a re-arc...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I still had a very slight hum at highway speeds with the new driveshaft, so I went out and picked up some 2 degree steel shims, (and new center pins), to replace the 4 degree ones in there now. The 2 degree shims brought the pinion down so it's not so straight on with the new driveshaft, and its...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Wanting to beef up my rear driveshaft and get rid of some minor vibrations at highway speeds. So I went out and picked up a ford 205 t-case yoke, (ring) and a ford 1350 double cardan and had a new driveshaft made with a 1350 u-joint at the other end so I could get rid or the offset u-joint I had...

    Deep desert fun

    The dry lake where we camped is off a remote highway on the way to the black rock desert nevada and then we took off from there going ridge to ridge exploring. I always have my detector with me but these were all tungsten mines mostly and not gold or silver but I was still looking for coins and...

    Deep desert fun

    Thanks everybody, glad you enjoyed the pic's, there is a lot to see from the past in the middle of nowhere. The mine, (in the pic) with the concrete was opened in 1918 and was booming during world war two mining tungsten for the military to use for bullet's. Anyway, the nevada dessert has lots...

    Deep desert fun

    You have to be careful out here, there are some unwanted critters around that can wreck your day. I reached in above this rock to see if it was loose and then I walked around it to go into the mine and saw this dude.

    Headers and Exhaust

    On the many square bodies I have had I always went with the offset inlet , center out let as well, (fit well for me) unless I ran glass packs.

    14 bolt ff locker

    Looks like 41 and 10 = 4.10, 41 and 11 would be 3.73 (said earlier to be a 4.10) anyway I run a (detroit drop in) in my 14 bolt on my k5 and it has been great. The nice thing is you dont have to re-set up the gear's, just mark and back off the slide callers , unbolt the ring gear to split the...

    Headers and Exhaust

    I myself have always ran 2 1/2" pipe on pretty much everything I have built, (no cats). As far as your 383 you can re-use everything unless you plan on your 383 being over 600 hp. then maybe 3" The 3" pipe may give you a deeper sound but with super 44's it will sound nasty with either size pipe...

    Help with lifting truck

    Just throwing this out here for you. I wont go into custom springs, (ord, alcan, deaver, etc...), but there is a big difference between off the shelf leaf springs and shock combo's, (I have ran many over the year's), The thing is ,( if you are not hauling loads and such) you want your front and...

    carburetor size on a 350

    I have been messing with my new vortec (350 horse),engine with a 600cfm quick fuel carb. on it and it runs great but I thought it should have more. I just put a 650 double pumper, (brawler) carb. on it for fun and it feels like I added 40lbs. torque and pulls harder on the top end. Your 750...

    Help with lifting truck

    Rough country springs are really stiff, I would look at tuff country or skyjacker soft ride springs if it was me. You will have a 208 t-case (if stock) so most drop the t-case 1 inch to solve vibration issue's. Next you will need extended brake line's and a extended steering arm. Then you will...

    Any headers that fit perfectly on 84 K10?

    Yes , that was a pic with my old 400 under the hood. Had those hedman elite's on there with no problems for a year or two. Since I put in a new engine I did go to a gear reduction mini starter just cause I think they are cool.
