    Long tube or short tube headers?

    Actually Long tubes are for HP and shorties are for torque. That's why you often find 4x4 guys running stock cast iron manifolds. The best thing would be the Tri Y headers by Doug Thorley or a set of shorty headers. Shorty headers fit right in place of the stock manifolds and will fit right up...

    Power lagging

    YA Jerry and Ceasar are right start with the basics first! I wouldn't doubt though if there is some slag or something in side your carb from the factory and that the floats may need to be adjusted as well. But start with first things first. Ensure that your fuel delivery is in order. That the...

    Doesn't that cam want something like 12*-14* BTDC ?

    How low is your transfer case?

    Ya that will work. The rear wheel well, is exactly 1" lower to the wheel then the front. So if you put an extra 1" of lift in the back it makes the wheel openings look the same and jacks the whole back of the truck up that 1" to give it a little bit better overall stance.

    Power lagging

    What did you set your timing to? and is the vacuum port at the back of the carb plugged or connected to the vacuum booster? It also sounds like a float level problem. I have also heard that the street demons need to be almost completely disassembled because sometimes there is a bit of debris...

    How low is your transfer case?

    Ya, Besides when you get a real 4" lift it will sit a lot higher then she is now. I would put a 1" spacer in the back of some sort when you get the front springs sorted out.

    How low is your transfer case?

    That's not bad at all! You can barely see it lol What tranny? Im guessing a TH400 ? My 4l60/208 hangs down about 5 or 6 inches and Im gonna lower it another 1" as well. Important thing is to have the skid plate in place. so any rubs are rubbing the cross member not the case. How much off...

    Is this truck safe to drive and a couple of questions

    I had a C10 once and it was exactly the same. In fact the whole body was in excellent shape along with the frame but the front suspension was completely rotted out! Weird!

    Is this truck safe to drive and a couple of questions

    No no no! Do not drive that vehicle. Your best bet would be to try to find the complete saddle from the wreckers

    4" lift modifications

    Ya those will help too. I prefer the blocks though over the bolt spacers. http://www.rockymountainsusp.com/suspension-parts/drivetrain/zonc5001.html?make=256&c=56&i=0 http://www.rockymountainsusp.com/suspension-parts/drivetrain/10703-tc.html?make=256&c=56&i=0

    Dual Steering stabilizer kit

    TIP: spray the hard ware and shock body with some spray can clear coat to prevent the items from rusting. Clear coat is tuff as nails strong when it comes to road spray. It holds up 5 years + looking like it was brand new if you give it 3 good coats of clear. And ensure that the drip holes in...

    Dual Steering stabilizer kit

    Or you could center the set up in the middle like this by doing the opposite of my last post. You might be able to leave the factory mount there with out having to cut it off. Depends on if you have clearance when you rock the steering from side to side

    Dual Steering stabilizer kit

    The u bolts go around the axle tube on the drivers side of the diff. You will probably have to cut the factory mount bracket off of the axle tube for clearance. the small u bolts clamp around the tie rod at the drivers side ball joint.

    AC parts from an 81 into a 74.

    Well I don't know if this is what your asking but if the firewall holes are the same then you can swap every last piece from the 81 into the 74

    4" lift modifications

    Oh lol I thought it was a double post cause you used the same title. Anyways there is a longer slip shaft that you can get. The short piece that attaches to the differential. I got one from a driveline shop. It might be a dodge piece, not sure though. But it gives you about an extra inch over...

    Ford NP208 Interchange / 27 Spline Output Shaft Th400

    I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it. Well I guess any 205 from a TH350 or a 208/241 from a TH350 or 700R4.
