    Rental trailers

    I just picked up a k5 and it fit on a uhaul. I told the the uhaul guy I was towing a 2wd blazer just in case.

    Can anyone school me on how the 73-75 k5 doesn't collapse on itself?

    I’m in the process now of building a 75. My original 75 was completely rusted out so I cut the windshield frame off of it, kept the doors and interior. I sourced a clean 85 and just cut the roof off it this weekend. I added poly body mounts and did not reinforce the rockers. I’m not getting...

    LS vs Vortec Swap vs Basic Upgrades - Cost Factors

    I have a k20 and completed the swap last year(lq4) Started out I was just going to use the motor the way it was. Looked very clean, came out of a low mile wreck. Last minute decision was made to open it up to be sure. Well it was toast. Some water got into from sitting out side and needed a...

    4" or 6" lift for 3/4 ton??

    Here is my 3/4 ton, 4” front 2” back. Originaly had a 2” all around but it had a rake to it so upgraded to 4” in the front. Now has a slight squat. I’m running 35x12.5x17. No rubbing but I don’t take it off road.

    2" Lift and 33's

    I ran 33’s with a 2” rough country lift. No issues at all. I ended up going to 35’s with a 4”/2” lift.

    Tough country or rough country ?

    I used the 2-1/2” rough country all spring lift. The rear ended up sitting 2” higher which I didn’t like. I ended up getting 4” springs for the front. It sits a little higher in the front now which I like. Ride quality was much better with 2-1/2” springs. I’m thinking I might try and...

    241c transfer case

    Thanks for all the great advice. I will jump on Facebook and have a look on ls swapped sq. Bodies. I’m using the same vss as the link above but mine is the pass through version. I think I’m going to just go ahead with the tranny swap. Besides solving the vss issue it will make the truck a...

    241c transfer case

    Below is the response from my tuner(frost)on the DD VSS(very bottom) I have it installed now and it does nothing. I have ran the truck with it hooked up and connected with no difference. I’m not complaining, the truck runs great and does not stall, but it has trouble finding idle when you come...

    241c transfer case

    I’m thinking of switching directions on this. I currently have the 32 spline 208 with the Dakota didgital vss. They just don’t work, even the new gps version Does not work. I have confirmed this with several tuners. I’m going to keep the 208 and add in the second reluctor ring on the 4l80e...

    Lq4 and 4l80e

    Also, were you guys able to use the original shift linkage for the tranny and transfer case?

    Lq4 and 4l80e

    Thanks, thinking I’m going to keep the 208 and just add the speed sensor to the 4l80e from a 2wd. What happens when you try and use 4 low with this set up?Will it just stay in first gear? I’m fine with that as I do t use it much.

    Lq4 and 4l80e

    Thanks for the reply, I’m ok with not having 4low. What’s involved in retrofitting the 208 to add a vss? Also, can I get the rear vss installed on a 4wd 4l80e?

    Lq4 and 4l80e

    Looking for some help on this. I did an lq4 swap in my k20 last winter. I kept the original th400 tranny and 208 transfercase. Truck works great with the exception of it has hard time finding idle and throws the check engine light when I’m coming to a stop as it does not have a vss. It does...
