    Truck is leaning to one side ???

    The front springs are brand new. I just installed them two days ago along with 4 new shocks. The rear's are a set of stock 8 leafs. I would hate to go through all the work to swap the rears and have the lean go to the other side. That would suck!!! The truck use to pull a 5th wheel trailer at...

    Swap out my 6.2 Diesel for a 454

    Yeah I'm not wanting to buy another diesel, mine runs just fine. I just don't care for the smell, sound or performance of the engine. Going from a 06 LBZ to a 6.2J is not impressive at all. I only bought this truck because it is so clean. There is nothing I could do to this 6.2 to even come...

    Any lifted snow plow trucks ????

    That's what was thinking.. If I remember correct, I think the mount needs to be like 15 or 16" from the ground for the best postion. I think I will probably remove the 4" superlift and go with what ever springs will alow 285/75-16 I think a 1" or 2" will alow that with 700 + LBS hanging...

    Need a Stock steering arm.

    I'm looking for a stock steering arm for my 87 3/4 ton 4X4. I'm thinking I will remove the 4" Superlift and go to HD front springs that will be able to handle my BB and snow plow. I can't seem to find anyone that sells them. Anyone have one laying around to sale me real cheap???

    Yes I just picked up a 454 out of a auto salvage yard last week. They said it was a 1974 and it came out of a truck. But after running the casting numbers 3963512 with a date code of H 25 70. The heads are 1974 781"s so my guess the 70 454 was put into a 1974 truck and someone put on the 781's...

    The lift is a 4" Superlift, the wheels are 16" x 8", and tires are 315/75/16 Yes the 6.2 is going BYE, BYE !!!!! It smokes really BAD on cold starts, and stinks pretty bad. The truck has never been driving in the winter, so really I don't trust it to be very reliable for me in the Iowa...
