You would probably need to do a 2 piece driveshaft. The stock rear shaft is already ridiculously long. If memory is correct, the place that built my driveshafts after my axle swap said that they won't build any driveshafts with more than 4 foot of tube, and mine was very close. I believe the extende...

_STUCKY

To answer your question, I don't believe that anything inside there is very "smart", so it should just be plug and play.

Pm me if you want it and we can work something out.

_STUCKY

Are you talking about the box that's on the drivers side fender that has the brake lines running in and out?

If so, I have one on the shelf that needs a good home.

_STUCKY

http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/chevy/2220121-_stuckys-junk.html#/enter Don't think too much about the quick ratio steering box. I tried a few different boxes and ended up building my own. I used a stock s10 case and put around 99 Chevy express van guts in it. One problem I had with the Astro box is ...

_STUCKY

Dang, for 250 I'd drag the whole thing home. You can't use the steering box on an s10, the mounts are different. But waggy boxes are somewhat desirable if it has a "76" stamped on it. They have some beefier internals. I don't know what all they fit. Also you might check if it has a Dana 44 or an amc...

This setup has a 50 amp fuse, 3 automotive relays, then the ground goes through the switch I have in the cab. The relays are supposed to be wired in a way that when the high circuit gets power it cuts the low circuit. I just have the 1 circuit wired, the 2nd circuit has the trigger wire wrapped up a...

_STUCKY

So I had it all planned out. I drew up a diagram to copy the relay setup to show you guys. About drove my self nuts trying to think of how I messed it up. I spent a large part of today on Google. Well, I finally went up there and was looking everything over. Turns out the fan I got from the junkyard...

_STUCKY

Hey brule and Anthony, I think I need help with some wiring. Or at least just a double check. So the Yj. I had bought a used hollister road relay setup from a guy on pirate. When I got it you could see where the plastic blocks that hold the relays had been hot, this may be where the issue is, not su...

_STUCKY

It's mobile! I drove maybe 8-10 miles, ending at home. There are issues.

_STUCKY

Hahaha. Yea the bazooka is more to kinda round out the sound range, probably not going to be knocking any mirrors off the windshield. It's been a while since I was looking for panty droppin' bass, and honestly it probably didn't work then anyways. But the back seat on these isn't really set up for w...

_STUCKY

Several of the members here have used an amplified bazooka bass tube. That's what I put in mine a few years back, but I had some feedback issues I never figured out and ended up unhooking it. Building a box has been on the to do list for a long time, but I don't know if I ever will. Let us know how ...

_STUCKY

The np233c (and I assume a 236, but never been in one) doesn't have a true nuetral, so I believe it would be trying to turn the front axle. Take a water bottle or something similar and tape it over the slip yoke housing to keep the atf in the case.

_STUCKY

Ok so that 90 k5 has 10 bolts front and rear, they are not desirable. I wouldn't even consider using the rear 10 bolt, but if you have a semi float 14 bolt from the heavy half tons, it's a reasonable combo. That's what I ran in my k5 for a few years. Granted I ended up with chromoly shafts in the fr...

_STUCKY

I'm sure you probably could but personally I would (and did) eliminate that too.

_STUCKY

I also agree to forget about an oil cooler. I planned to exnay it with the axle swap. When I started taking bolts out, it disintegrated. It always leaked.

On the ujoints, I very much prefer non greasable spicers.

Where are you located?

_STUCKY

Look in the not otherwise specified (NOS) section.

As for steering shafts, one from a roughly 85-01 xj Cherokee should work as well, if you have a junkyard around.

_STUCKY

Whoopsy! Advanced adapters and jags that runs, both mounts are similar. Must be someone from the sfa section on s10forum I thinking of with jags that run mounts. Both use the 2.8 style though.

_STUCKY

Ok so to make the 241 work, with the bravada shaft, it's just a matter of putting it in gear, that's all. If you use the 233, with the bravada shaft, you are eliminating the vacuum actuator on the axle along with the issues that come with it. I never had a problem but the vacuum switch on the top of...

_STUCKY

Thanks Anthony. So what is it that you need to do to the radiator support? Anyone have pics?

_STUCKY

On the fan, 99ish intrepid. I'm not sure if polarity can be reversed, I mean probably if you are smart enough but it'd be easier to just put a pusher in front. Haha yea no limp mode with a manual. Slipped my mind. I hear you on manual everything. On my crew when I did the axle swap, I really wanted ...

_STUCKY

For the last few months, as time and money allows, I've been tinkering on the yj. I currently have a "clampy" inspired build going, YouTube "Toyota clampy" if you don't know what I mean. So currently, 95 yj, 2.5/ax5/241d/drw gm60/d70hd. My brother had some 38s on 20s that I put on to roll around. I ...

_STUCKY

Nice. I have a polymer lower enroute. I think I'm gonna build a pistol out of it.

_STUCKY

As for the tcase, mind you I haven't done this, just read about from the solid axle guys, but some people swap over to a manual shift 231 or 241 and they have to ground a connector (I'm not sure what or where) that tells the truck it's in low range. If you don't do that the trans can go into limp mo...

_STUCKY

Maybe something like this could work:

On a side note, liven it up around here. Let's see what you guys are doing

_STUCKY

That's a ridiculous price! Personally, I'd go to a muffler shop. I don't know what a new one costs, but a qualified shop could do it in an hour or 3.

_STUCKY

Had a mishap with my bed topper and wanting to find another. Black preferably. Within a driving distance. I'm in central IL, around Springfield.

_STUCKY

So after that last post, I had a bit of carnage. I swapped all those ends for the steering, had it aligned, everything was nice.... Until I slid into a ditch and bent the frame. Had it pulled out at a body shop, and it seems fine but I feel I can't trust it. Anywho, the reason for this post is I had...

_STUCKY

I just realized I never followed up with measurements.... You still need them?

_STUCKY

I see what you did there haha

_STUCKY

Whoopsy!

Not sure why I posted it there and not here, but I'm glad you found it. I'd have to look for them, but I'm not running all 3 springs anymore. I'm now soa, pretty sure I have the longest from the kit still in the truck. I'll measure the arch on them when I get a chance.

_STUCKY

I like it. Have a part number or a link to this one?

_STUCKY

What in tarnation is a chmsl?

_STUCKY

It's been slow around here so here's an update. Nothing major. Yet. So my steering had been feeling a little loose. Started looking and noticed that the draglink end that goes into the pass side tierod wasn't fully seated, which kinda egged out the hole and scarred up the stud. Replaced all 4 ends a...

Shackle angle was the goal. Old on top. http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/u422/_STUCKY/zr5/B2CDD476-182A-4EB2-8112-...

_STUCKY

Yea my mechanic buddy agreed, change it while I'm there. I've got a hard start issue, he said that *could be it. We have been suspecting the fuel pump, hopefully it was the regulator. Fuel pressure regulator is a pricey little booger, Napa charged me like 63$. I've got it mostly back together. Distr...

_STUCKY

Thanks! Thermostat should be good to go, I replaced it with the one you sent me with the alternator. Not sure what the fuel pressure regulator is, but I will know soon.

_STUCKY

So I'm down to the distributor and the intake manifold. What all should I replace while I'm this deep? I don't think it has been this far apart yet (approx. 105,000 miles currently). I am thinking intake manifold, water pump, and valve cover gaskets, rotor for the distributor, and possibly a new wat...

_STUCKY

Ha the little green guy didn't leave much for everyone else.

Alright. I'll get to reading when I get a chance. Thanks HJ! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours as well!

_STUCKY

So the truck got new main leafs in the front this week. I had a shop make some 2 inches longer on long side, center pin forward 1/8 inch and 1/2 inch more arch. They are in and shackle angle is much better and ride is much better, I'm happy. Last night I swapped in efans. Now I have an antifreeze le...

_STUCKY

I want to go. Pick me up next time

_STUCKY

Made a little progress. The brake kit came for the d60 yesterday so I put it on. I wasn't sure if it would work with the dually hubs, which use bolts instead of studs to hold it together. Perfect fit though, I'm happy. http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/u422/_STUCKY/other%20stuff/2F2ED976-05F6-4C70...

_STUCKY

I think as nice as that radiator looks, I think I'd out a screen in front of it to keep bugs out of the fins.

Is there a part number for it or was is a custom made radiator? I like it. I want it.

_STUCKY

Very nice! I'd like to do an electric fan and better radiator over the winter. Slow trail riding and ac currently don't mix.

_STUCKY

Well... No dice... The guy I talked to said that the longest they can ream it with the taper I need for my draglink end is 6.75 inch. The same as my waggy pitman arm. So no gain. He also told me you want it at 90% and I should be getting all I can out of what I have. He said about the only thing I c...

I changed mine during the axle swap. Bunch of nasty came out.

_STUCKY

Looks like a lot of fun. Your truck looks great with those tires. Any pics of the inside of the tent? I'm curious how roomy it feels.

_STUCKY

Ruffstuff sells a couple brackets that might be able to make work for this. The have them listed as outriggers. I'll find a link if you are interested.

_STUCKY

That one is spring over in a Dana 30, and no shafts in the front axle in pic 2. Low miles though! And not a bad price IMO

_STUCKY

Bah! It's plenty capable. You'd be suprised what it'll do in stockish form. Stay off the rocks, stay out of the water, and I'd bet it would do great. If you really do want to go, as of now, I'm not sure I'll have any riders, maybe the girlfriend but that's not a for sure thing yet.

Alright, I'll fill you guys in on recent changes. So I took the off rear flares a couple weeks back. They were falling off. I broke like 8 of 10 of the studs getting them off and had to use a grinder to get the broken junk out, which I got into the paint a bit. The flare less look is growing on me. ...

I removed my rear flares. I'm not happy with what was underneath. Can I get my paint code in a spray can? Truck is black, u8555.
