    Mismatched e-brakes: 73 axle swap on my 87 K15

    Thanks Spencer. Not sure how to adapt the drum brake backing plates. I can envision adapting the front ebrake cables to tie into the rear, but not the other way around. Would like to use the later setup, but not sure how.

    Mismatched e-brakes: 73 axle swap on my 87 K15

    Not sure how many have done this, but when I went to install the 1987 e brake cables, there isn't the same attachment to the drum brake backing plates. I figure that I'll need to custom fab something for the 73 axle e brake cables to work with my 1987 e brake system. After looking at my sons'...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I know what you mean! I hauled 6 hay bales last month and couldn't believe how much better it rode.

    I'd like to see a picture of it installed. Yeah, @TotalyHucked is right, with my little T-rex arms, I might call on the floor jack for an assist on that heavy when full of oil, tall boy. lol

    Never heard of such a regulation where you can’t even enter a hunting unit until a certain time. Is that only the opening day morning, or every day of the hunt?

    Let's see those 4x4 Squares On Dirt!

    I forgot to share photos/video from my son's first elk hunt back in October, just south of the Grand Canyon. We scouted the first day, before Opening Day, then went out with our friends in their LandCruiser, found a shed antler within the first hour, tracked a small herd all day, then my son got...

    Let's see those 4x4 Squares On Dirt!

    Thanks @PrairieDrifter and @bucket ! I went in to the Machine Shop in Chino Valley, AZ (mentioned previously) who pretty much specializes in driveshaft fab and repair. He had the 3r/1350 crossover u joint waiting for me on the shelf. Now I just need to press the 3r out and the 3r/1350 in and...

    Nope! 14BFF. gonna need a new end on my driveshaft however. The Spicer cap on the driveshaft says P171 which is a 3R u joint instead of the 1310, 1330, or 1350 that I expected. Thankfully we have a guy in the next town over that does good work like this on driveshafts apparently.
