    On the rear, I c-notched. Probably didnt need to but did it anyway. The notch was a belltech kit and I used the bumpstops that came with the kit.

    Thanks for the info Hotrod. No plans for a trans brake or NOS here.

    I guess how much traction you have is a major factor on the longevity of the axle. The truck is not a daily driver and mileage per year is low. Maybe I'll see how the 12 bolt does. If it breaks and a 14 bolt comes up I'll throw that in. Whilst we're on the subject, how much can the stock TH400...

    Really? How much hp can a 12 bolt handle? 14 bolts are hard to come by in England.....

    So did I. Maybe its the coil springs I have but it doesnt feel any stiffer to me. I chopped off the lower bump stops and felt the tire touch the inner fender once over a large bump. The rear springs are the same obviously. Just located below the axle now.

    Thanks for the compliments! :happy107: BADAZ the 'before' rims are 15x10 with 295/50s. Drives much nicer now. And I love how it looks. Although I may be tempted to go 1" more all round. I think that will require to run without inner fenders on the front and relocate the battery. I'll...

    Got mine dropped on Saturday. Dropped the front 5" using DJM 3" spindles and DJM 2" drop springs. Changed the bushes and ball joints whilst I was at it. Drove it to work with 5" front drop and no rear drop. That was an experience!! Front airdam bottomed out everywhere and I struggled to keep...

    12 bolt locker

    Thanks for the info HotRod. Currently only about 300hp maybe less. But plans are for a motor in the 500-600hp range. So maybe the Detroit Locker is the better choice? What oil should I be chucking in with the diff?

    lights/turn signals

    Thanks John. I'll start there. On a side note, is there anywhere I can download a wiring diagram for my C10?

    Thanks Mark. I've heard they take little getting used too. But once you do they are awesome. I just need to know which one to order? Are all truck 12 bolts, 30 spline?

    What do I need to know to make sure I order the right diff for my 12 bolt? The open diff has to go. Its embarrassing! Lol. Am I right in thinking I can check my gears by jacking up one rear, turning 2 full revolutions and counting the turns of the shaft? Anybody on here use a Detroit Locker...

    lights/turn signals

    Now firstly let me say electrics are not my strong point. So if anyone can point me in the right direction with this one I'd be very grateful! All was fine until one day I used my hazard lights. After that when I switch on my lights the left turn signal on the dash illuminates and I have no...
