    Tbi vs carb

    Ok thanks for the replies. I currently have tbi both on my 350, and the 454 I'll be swapping in later. Just looking for opinions. Ive seen a lot of people just toss the tbi in favor of building more power. Im about fixing it in the woods so I was a little iffy on running TBI at first but I...

    Tbi vs carb

    Without starting a fuss, I know opinions vary. Is there I consensus here on this? Are more people swapping from tbi to carb or carb to tbi (or another form of injection)? Say on a basic stock engine with a 4 barrel already or stock tbi. Does this opinion differ between a big or small block...

    Wheel choices for 4x4

    Easy tiger. Im a mud tire guy myself but I bought that blazer with those wheels and tires almost 18 years ago and they at least still hold air. Shrug

    Howdy all

    Welcome! If it's been sitting at all just get the gas out of the tank and clean, even the lines. So many problems with old gas its hard to fix other issues till then. Pretty much chasing your tail.

    Wheel choices for 4x4

    I second these rims. Old school look. I got mine in 17x9 flavor. Went with 17's for future tire options and possible brake upgrade in the 2nd pic. Or in the 1st pic you could look for those like someone else mentioned.

    Transmission lowering?

    What's funny that's what i was going to say. Im new here and thought it may sound a bit smart ass. Im a little used to another 4x4 site that will eat you up.

    Moose that's cool as hell. Way more interesting to me than 'cookie cutter' rigs. Just about anybody can build something that's nothing but bolt on.

    Transmission lowering?

    Bennyt I figured it came with a kit. I'm looking if anyone with a burb had to run them. To me its bonkers but you never know. I'm going to move em at some point for sure. Really I'm not worried about the front shafts angle. I think I might just hate the xfer case hanging down so much. As a...

    Raider L. The Jeepster is a 70. I painted a few rooms in a guys house for it about 15 years ago. Old guy. He had tons of documents for it including the original window sticker. He wasnt the first owner though. He had owned it since early 70's. It was funny when he called those tires 'big balloon...

    Noob with a 1989 Chevrolet R3500 454 with performance upgrades

    Welcome! Amazing what a bath does. I'll be watching the advice given about the 454 cause I have one to swap into my burb.

    New 1986 C10 Silverado 305 (or maybe 350?)

    Looks like its on good shape. Clean truck. You could put the wheels and tires up for trades local to you. That way its not, much if any, cash out of your pocket. Most of your other issues are normal ones. Just keep plugging at it. Welcome!

    Transmission lowering?

    Im going to put them back in there correct location and see what the joint angle come out to. I can't imagine I need the case lowered. Its only 6" of lift.

    I dont have nearly enough shocks if that's what you mean. Lol

    Transmission lowering?

    From everything I've seen they're suppose to be located inside the frame with the crossmember against the frame. So frame sandwiched between crossmember. I understand a longer bolt has a higher clamping force. That seems to be normal. Im used to transfer case lowering kits and what they're...

    Transmission lowering?

    Seems that would make it worse in the front to me. Front output tipping up. No shims on front axle either. Hmm.

    Not anymore no. Its still on my property though, aaaaand still in my name sooo. 2 years ago I took a 20 something kid under my wing at work. Showed him the finer points of life. He bought a 84 k20 and immediately wrecked it with bald tires. Washington roads. He said he had always wanted a k5...
