Why a ford front axle?

Unless you can find a Dana with a drivers side diff...GM is pas side, the they went independant on the front.

Why a ford front axle?

You'll need Left hand drop on the axle since your Tcase on a GMT400 body style is Left Hand drop instead of Right.

Might even be nice to find a High Pinion Ford Axle. It'll be Left Hand differential, and the pinion being on the high side instead of low, you can go with a high lift kit and not have bad geometry on your front driveshaft angle and less worries of your driveshaft getting damaged in some tough wheeling with clearance issues. Ford did do a couple things right.

So I looked at the Tahoe its a 1991 4x4 hunter green its look like he kissed a brick wall or something with it but I'm gonna get it

 

[Jims86]

91? There was a Tahoe package on the s10, but no full size Tahoe until 94.

 

[HotRodPC]

Yeah, if it were a 91 it would be a Squarebody, Burb or K5 Blazer.

 

[Paulscrawler78]

The badging said Blazer so I think its one of the last full size Blazer package they had it is a full size 5.7l 700r4 transmission 2 door non removable hard top

So you are getting another Squarebody then?

 

[Paulscrawler78]

It looks like it lmfao the motor was replaced 2 months ago with a crest motor and transmission last month all done at a well know shop in fresno

 

[HotRodPC]

And for sure it's a 91? Just like what you just got rid of? So it should have mini quad front lights and be TBI with another 700r4. Or is it a 92 GMT400 Body Style???

You must be registered for see images attach

Its this body style door said 5/1991

 

[HotRodPC]

Yep, That's Not a Squarebody. That's the GMT400 Bodystyle. Same exact powertrain you just got rid of though.

 

[Paulscrawler78]

So is it a blazer or is it a Tahoe lmfao its cheap and has new motor and transmission that all work flawlessly and he is gonna smog it before I buy it

 

[HotRodPC]

In 92 they were still calling them Blazer I do believe. Somewhere in the mid 90's they did transition the name to Tahoe.

 

[bucket]

It was still called a Blazer then. Tahoe name came around '95 or '96, to go along with the new Tahoe 4-door.

 

[Paulscrawler78]

At any rate I'll be getting it here in 2 weeks
