    35s with 4 inch lift

    I know mine are like this but I didn't do it. Is it safe to do an 8 inch wheel with a 12.5 inch wide tire? Is there a write up on trimming on this site?

    35s with 4 inch lift

    Ok so right now I have an 85 k10 with 4 inches of lift on stock 15x8 rims with 35x12.50 15. I am fixing to swap in axles from a V(K)20 from 87 with 4.11 gears. I am looking at some black rock rims on summit racing and I am going to get the 16 inch equivalent of a 35x12.50 but will they still...

    Smoking Truck

    It runs strong but shakes some at idle but still has sufficient power no hiccups during hard acceleration and no puffs of smoke during hard acceleration. Why would it smoke until the truck was warmed or started moving and not just one puff or so at start up? I have probably put about 750-1000...

    Smoking Truck

    I have an 1985 k10 with a 305. It has roughly 150000 miles. It has been smoking on startup since I got it. It hasnt been much smoke just a puff but it smokes until the truck has started moving or is at normal operating temperature. And then just stops. I feel like it is the valve seals but...

    What all is involved with moving the perches and mounts? I have a truck that my father has that's a 95. So I have those axles for free if the mounts and perches aren't to hard to relocate. Thanks for clearing that up andy.

    I looked awhile back but I'm pretty sure it's the NP208. What are the difference I the np203,205,208? Is it possible to use the k20 gears and housing but the k10 axle shafts? Just a thought to use the same rims and tires from the k10

    If I found a rear axle before the front could I put the rear in with 4.10 as long as I don't use the 4x4?

    That doesnt sound to expensive. Does anyone have pics to see what the smallish tires will look like with 4 inch lift? The transmission is why i wanted to go with the smaller tires.

    Hi everyone. I wasn't sure what category to put this thread in so it's here cause it is mainly about the tires. I just bought a 85 k10 with a 4 inch lift and 35s the previous owner didn't know he needed to regear the rear end so he was running the stock 3.08s with the 35s. I am wanting to go...
