Shipping them to the states is not a problem. and it cost the same rate as shipping in the states. I can get shippment qoutes, i just need a zip code

Hey yall. I doubt there would be interest in a set of stock wheels, but i figured Id post up here for a little before i put the ebay add up. They ARE not the ZR5 wheels, just the normal stock 4x4s that are on the rear of my truck in the pic below. http://i407.photobucket.com/albums/pp159/topshot956/...

Thanks all! oh of course its gonna get wheeled haha. im not sure if Im going to leave the axle in the fwd position or move it back. the leaf springs have an offset centering pin and the leaf perches have 3 different mount holes. so ill have to play with the postion. Sawzalls can be thereputic. Did t...

Next weekend i have to do the brakes, tranny xmember, tcase shaft swap, and an alignment. then it should be driveable!

paintballrocker

Welp i got some more porgress done on saturday! I got the steering hooked up, drop pitman arm in, rear axle flipped, rear diff cover installed, and new tires and wheel installed. http://i407.photobucket.com/albums/pp159/topshot956/tr.jpg I might need to go to an astro box, but ill decide that once i...

paintballrocker

just your idea sounds shady. but if you did make that bumper it looks great. How bout i save you the hassle of buying everything and you just sell me the plans for it

paintballrocker

http://www.s10forum.com/forum/album.php?albumid=1311, well now that he added a place to look. turns out there are pics, http://www.s10forum.com/forum/album.php?albumid=1311. As good as it looks i still am doubtful of his bumper idea

paintballrocker

i thought you had an origional animal 4x4 bumper kit. not a kit you think you can piece together and sell yourself. and i cant not find you or your myster thread on s10furom. so couold you post a link?

paintballrocker

How much you want? Ill pay it plus shipping. just let me know. also pm'd you

paintballrocker

no im not going to use the stock s10 hubs and abs. im going to delete the abs module under the hood and just go to a standard system and rerun all my brake lines. And yea that build is Arbs as i said. he has the same build thread on s10 forum. I was terrified about not having ABS right after the sw...

paintballrocker

you dont have to use the astro box. but most people do to get a flatter steering angle, but it has nothing to do with getting the arm to swing the right way. And i know the 8.8 is the normal rear to go along with the d30 but im not in the states, im stationed overseas so my axle choice were very lim...

paintballrocker

It looks good. Is it a kit? Home built? What axle? What axle for the back? spring over rear? What transfer case? Stock case or what? Do these trucks get the astro van steering box and an xj pitman arm like the old body style? Or something else? What size tire? What front leaves? Details... Edit: I'...

paintballrocker

Heres a few teaser pics for yall. Id start my build thread now but i just got out of the shop and am tired! Took me all three days to get the front axle hung. This will be a weekend project. Im Hoping to be done by the end of the month. http://i407.photobucket.com/albums/pp159/topshot956/008-1.jpg h...

paintballrocker

Yikes. Is the oil level full? You need to check the oil pressure with a real gauge. The lifters are hydraulic and need oil pressure to operate. With a lack of pressure there will be excessive clearance and the clatter you hear from the rocker arms. You may be on the road to a rebuild if the level i...

paintballrocker

Hey guys. Recently Ive been having a noise when i start my truck when its cold. It only does it when i start the truck in the morning and when i leave work. It starts as a loud ticking sound, that disappears when the truck completely warms up. The ticking will increase with engine rpm's. Also my oil...

x2, i have a 2.5" dual, that what most normally run

paintballrocker

well i backed off the cruise control cable till it had slack in the line. truck is idling low now thankfully. but it still isnt idling like it use to. so im gonna put in the new IAC vavle when i get it and try to mess witht the cruise control cable till it idles like it normally does

paintballrocker

Try disconnecting the cruise control cable and see if the throttle blade closes any further. There definitely should not be a 1/8" gap when the throttle blade is closed. A gap that wide will cause the IAC valve to completely close off the idle air passage which prevents the PCM from lowering the id...

paintballrocker

Perhaps. I don't think there should be tension against either cable. That said I can not run out and confirm that either. When you look down the throttle body is there a gap around the butterfly like it is being held open, or is it pretty much closed and tight at the edges? Checking the resistance ...

paintballrocker

already cleaned the throttle body. ill have to check the egr. ona side not though, i noticed with the cable for the cruise control into the throttle blade (next to where the throttle cable mounts) it holds my throttle blade open. could i just back off the threaded fitting for the cruise control to c...

paintballrocker

forgot about this thread for a few weeks. i got the MAP sensor and TPS replaced, its not throwing a code any more. so thats solved, but it still isnt idling right. so im gonna replace the idle air control valve and see if that helps. if not, is there a srew to manually adjust the throttle blade to a...

yea i know how expensive it can be to make sliders of that design. i can weld and it still would be alot. and no. it isnt for a mall crawler

paintballrocker

no worries. i kno they sell fast. just thought id double check

paintballrocker

Well shipping to military APO is limited to 75lbs and 130"of combined LxW. so cutting the arms off would deff help the shipping. I just had a set of 47" chevy front leaf springs sent to me for my axle swap for $50 for the two, so i cant imagine the shipping cost being outrageous for these, especiall...

paintballrocker

still have the flares for sale?

paintballrocker

i still really want these but im not coming home anytime soon. any chance you could cut off the mounting 'arms' that extend from the actual square tube of the slider and ship it like that? im willing to pay the shipping

paintballrocker

Im getting down to the last few parts for my axle swap and a set of flares would be great for my tire coverage problem. does any one, i mean any one know of a set still floating around? i know how rare they are so i dont see much hope in finding a set, but figured id still ask

paintballrocker

might need one. ill know for sure this weekend

paintballrocker

Yup, keys and shackles

if i read it right the new kit has the diff drop to compensate for the bad angles of the keys when theyre cranked. so whats wrong with a key/shackle set up like this?

paintballrocker

great to hear! i was worried my tranny was going on me

paintballrocker

well i got a chance to scan it today at work. got 6 diff codes. MAF, TPS, n MAP sensors, plus bank 1 & 2 rich codes. so im gonna shoot some wires and clean eberything this saturday and see if anything needs replaced. Do you think those items would cause my tranny to be shifting weird?

paintballrocker

thanks for the idea on shooting the wiring on the TPS. Ive heard that to check the IAC is to remove it but leave it plugged in and see if it actuated once the engine starts. Ill try to clean everything and troubleshoot before i order parts being as im overseas

paintballrocker

Thanks HJ. ive been researching this problem, im hoping that cleaning the throttle boddy, IAC, MAF, and TPS might resolve these issues. ill see what codes pop up when i scan it tomorrow

paintballrocker

im going to tomorrow before work. but it scared me today. i drove it and put it in park before i turned it off and the rmps keep rising to above 2000 so i shut it off before it rose too high

paintballrocker

well its been a few days, i had the SES light come one for about 3 days and it just went away by itself. But im still having weird problems. First my truck norm idles at around 1100 and then goes down to around 600 rpms. now after this incident it idles around 1700 and goes down to 1100. also its sh...

paintballrocker

Yea I thought the same thing bout hydrolocking but I didn't thankfully. I did have a check engine light after it happened but it went away after A day of driving. But now i haven't had the above problem since yesterday. Now it's idling fine but still takes a little longer to shift tho

paintballrocker

Hey all the past weekend I hit a mud hole that was a little too deep. The engine shut off it's self so I got the truck pulled out and took the intake off to find water in it. After I got it dried out it fired right up. It ran weird on the way home like dropping down in Rpms when under load. Now two ...

paintballrocker

im gonna have to look into that gasket, seems worth the $$. ona a good note, i got both the diff covers. seem beefy. i cant wait to get the swap going. just waiting to get steering, springs and brake lines

any one?

Im asking cause i need to make/or buy a extension hose section for between the rear hard line and the spliter at the diff, and adapters to get jeep front lines to match up with my front hard lines. an...

paintballrocker

good news. thanks guys. i wish i could find a cover with the bearing support for my dana 30 too, all i can find are covers witht just higher fill ports, no bearing support. Those higher fill ports can lead to trouble. if, your pinion angle is stock. If, the angle is changed, add oil to reach midway...

paintballrocker

good news. thanks guys. i wish i could find a cover with the bearing support for my dana 30 too, all i can find are covers witht just higher fill ports, no bearing support.

sweet ill be ordering one soon! only question is what does the bearing load bolts do and how do you adjust them so they "work" properly. ive never dealt with those before

paintballrocker

just wondering if anyone has used any of the aftermarket diff cover that are supposed to add some strength to our rear axles. i found the summitracing aluminum covers that look pretty tough. but just seeing if anyone has any expericence with it or any other types

It's not a high-steer, just a basic cross-over steering set up with the stock knuckles. I'm sorry I...

paintballrocker

quick question bout your setup. what size lift springs did you use up front? also how did you go about your steering? high steer arm/knuckle? did you have to use a astro van steering box? just asking cause ive been slowly gathering parts for the swap, right now im pretty much just trying to figure o...

paintballrocker

sorry bout the pic man, but yea the only way i could of got the box and sub to fit was removing the trim peice. once thats done it cake to get the box to fit right
