I've updated that as far as it can realistically go...for a full mods list you can visit this I guess.

I've looked for a place to add a profile description but haven't found it yet. Or does everyone around here just use the "interests" section under "job description"?

You can just buy my truck. :thumb: Since I'm running an LS-engine with hydroboost it was actually VERY easy to find the parts at your local auto store. The 4.3L and LS-engine power steering pumps are in similar locations, you may be able to use the same setup actually. Starting at the pump, I have a...

Do you still have the extending visors? My driver side visor has a broken mirror latch. My wife does not approve lol.

Where did you come up with the idea of using the '80 3/4 ton MC? I'm wondering this too. All things the same, a 1.25" bore MC actually DECREASED your line pressure to your calipers compared to the 1.00" stock bore. The main reason the 3/4 ton has the larger 1.25" bore is due to the volume requireme...

Jacksonville is a hair out of our way. We will be taking interstate 80 all the way to Delaware from MN. Stopping in Des Moines first from MN.

$109 is a steal. Out my way, they start @ $300 for decent. If its cheaper, then either the axle is bent or in the neighborhood of 200k miles. Ya I'm not sure what it is about Minnesota but I love the junkyards around here. Complete V8's for under $300 bucks, transmissions and transfer cases for und...

Like I said, 15x8 with 5 inch backspacing with 31x10.5x15. I didn't want to run wheel spacers. Very nice! I like the way the wider wheel pushed the tires out further without looking like "That Guy" who has seemingly 0" of backspacing on his deep-dished wheels. Now if I could just find a zr2 rear ax...

Apples and oranges. Gear reduction does not multiply or increase the engine torque it reduces the torque required to move the drivetrain :) http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-YeT9qoqT7y4/TgeTQWyDY8I/AAAAAAAABnw/Tzhg44Qc3-8/s1600/freakonomics.jpg I totally agree with you in part....that gear reduction requir...

I'm easy with the skinny pedal for daily drivers. The aluminum 5.3 is also lighter than the 4.3, so as long as I keep my beer gut in check this truck should actually lose weight. I'm going to keep the axles the same. Putting your truck in 4LO actually puts more torque to the axles than dropping a 5....

Thank you all for the quick and warm welcome. Pictures will come soon enough, this weekend perhaps. Admittedly I've always been slow to get the pictures off the camera's SD card and uploaded to photobucket. ApproachMedium, if your idea of near future is within a year, I'm sorry to report the 4.3L wi...

When you say "the front fragile" are you referring to the aluminum housing or to internal parts? Any experience busting things up? With the front IFS crossmembers cut out, one could retain stock ride height and 31's with a Dana 30 front and long arms...but I'm convinced there has to be a better solu...

I have faith in the front 7.25" and GM 7-5/8 rear 10 bolt with mild tires and a stock 5.3L. For a daily driven axle it needs to hold up to high speed long distance trips with proper lubrication and good bearings. If, for example, I was off-roading this truck or street racing it, I'd be more worried ...

Let's talk crew cab lifts and 30.5" tires. Today I mocked up a spare 245/75R16 to see how much more height I'd need to clear the tire compared to the current 235/75R15's that are on the truck now. I figured another 2.5" of front lift would be needed along with some minor trimming at the corners. Gra...

I guess I left out a few things...I have a sickness. I can't leave any vehicle I own stock. When I bought the Crew Cab it had a few paint chips on the rocker panels and the alternator was groaning. I have since coated the rocker panels, wheel wells and fenders with bed liner and I replaced the puny ...

Howdy folks, some of you may know me from other s-truck forums as I've definitely been in this scene for quite a few years now, but I'm finally able to come over here with my most recent purchase. I found it fitting to join now that my 8 years of waiting for the right crew cab finally fell in my lap...
