    Axle identification

    I mean, don't ask where my "classified" came from because I'm surely not gonna say "classified".

    Axle identification

    You didn't understand. An off-road enthusiast working at base could, in fact, bring a d44 from a civy rig and swap it for a d60 in a matter of minutes. Wouldn't even take a half hour if he had everything ready. Think about it. Cookie cutter circumstances don't always apply.

    post your worst stuck pics

    This was the second worst that I've had this one stuck. The worst followed shortly after I got out of this hole. Broke a couple winches including mine. Took a dozer to get 'r out. The second pic is of me waiting on the dozer to come.

    hockey puck body lift??

    I did the DIY4X 1" aluminum pucks with grade 8 bolts & new poly body mounts. I'm not a fan of body lifts in the least but, since they're aluminum and only an inch, I chose them. They've made it that much easier to clean the underside of the rig after beating on it.

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    I will trade with you if the broken off bolt isn't cross-threaded in.

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    Or did you mean the short one? I'm equally confused on that as well.

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    I have found zero definitive information in regards to that. In a nutshell, I'm finding anything from 1977 to 1986. Guess I could contact a GM parts guy and pick his brain... or his computer

    Shock Length

    What I do is 1) Remove the shocks, 2) lift the truck and let the suspension sag, 3) Measure shock bolts center-center for extended length, 4) Let the truck back down, 5) jack up ONE SIDE of the axle you're working on until it's fully compressed and won't compress further (axle would be...

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    Of course, the Behemoth product is only like .8" thick with the claim of better spline engagement but with that would come the necessity for a longer rear driveshaft tube and, sequentially, a shorter front one... nah... ain't like'n that idea. Besides, the one that I shattered did so without...

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    I'm thinking I'll use the short one, add brackets and poly bushings in the extra space, and delete the B.S. factory-style mount. I could locate then change to the "w" cross member and put this issue to bed but I don't want to do that. I might even buy one of those aftermarket billet jobs from...

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    The eBay prices are out-flip'n-rageous though.

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    I have one. The thing is, I might use it. I did, however, see one or two of the short versions on eBay. Show me a pic of the ear with the bolt broken off in it. Maybe we can trade.

    TH400 to NP208 TALL adapter

    Well.... I need one. I may want more than one though. I have found some elsewhere but checking here too. Exploring all the options. I'd rather not change cross member. Thanks.

    NP208 Rear Housing Issues

    Something didn't go back in correctly. That slinger/pump dealeo might be backwards or misaligned. That's the likely culprit. It all has to go in just so as you lift the shaft to line it up. That stuff only goes one way. Also, you have to clean the hell out of the bolts & threads then use sealer...
