    NP208 stuck between gears/nuetral

    I’ve been driving my NV4500/LS swap and recently tried to engage 4 low, couldn’t get the transfer case to move properly and now it’s stuck somewhere between gears or in neutral. I can’t force it up or down into 2H/4H. What can I do to diagnose/fix my issue? Is it the alignment? I recently...

    Fox shocks

    Hello, I picked up a pair of fox shocks with reservoirs cheap af locally from a K5 owner. They measure 25” fully extended and 14 compressed. Can I run these on the rear of my 84 K10? It looks like they’ll be a few inches longer than what’s currently on my truck. Open to any suggestions or...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Been driving my LS swap for a week now and I’m having an odd electrical issue. Occasionally my gauges/radio will turn off, and when I test them they are getting 1-1.8v instead of constant 12v to the accessory/ignition wire. It’s gettting 12v to power and has a good ground. If I leave them for...

    Axle swap help

    Looking to offer some labor for axles, the guy states they are a set of 3:73 axles under his '74 K5. The front is a 10 bolt FT 4WD with a set of locking hubs and the rear is a 12 bolt. Will that bolt up fine to my 1984 k10? I have 3.08s under it right now and both are 10 bolts. I can weld new...

    NV4500 gear whine

    Tons of whine from my NV4500, wondering if people think it’s the normal “loud” NV4500 or if it needs a repair. If it needs to be rebuilt any recommendations on kits? I’ve got the repair manual /a few YT videos doing tear downs. I’ve no idea how to share videos here so here’s a YT link w the noise:

    NV4500 Vibration in neutral - and with clutch fully disengaged

    Swapped in a 94 NV4500 into my 84k10 and mated it to a 05 Gen 5.3L LS. I used the 1050 Flywheel, and a 94 clutch kit. Went with AA bellhousing and hydraulic slave. In neutral and with the clutch fully disengaged I'm getting serious vibrations. I've been wondering if I've gotten the wrong clutch...

    Truck died under load

    My truck died while driving yesterday to pick up some furniture. Died on a non bumpy road going like 40. Pulled over and popped the hood. On a whim I jumped the terminals on the firewall, because i know they get constant 12V and that worked prior when my alt crapped the bed, it started back up...

    Dakota Digital Install issues

    Posting here hoping someone can give me a bit of advice. Here's the rundown: 1984 k10 with 305V8, 700R4 and NP208. Dakota digital install went decent, I have coolant and voltage (reads 15-16 running which seems high but can come down to 12-13). Fuel didnt read anything initially, figured out I...

    MT swap on 1984 K10

    I'm looking to swap my K10 with a 700R4 to a MT. I also want to do an LS swap either at the same time or in the future as funds permit. I was intending to do a NV3500 swap, but wanted to get opinions on what would be the easiest/best swap with my goal in mind. Mostly city driving with some...

    No start issue

    I've had 3 subsequent no start issues that I've been fixing and I'm at my wits end trying to figure out what's going on with my truck. First no start issue was my fusible link blew, checked everything else swapped the battery because it was 8 years old and not holding a charge. Second my...

    Turn signal issue/ brake light issue

    My rear turn signals do not function, also my passenger side reverse light doesn't function. I have cleaned ground (driver taillight ground, is there any others?), and tested the bulbs by swapping known good bulbs. I am not getting any power to any of the 3 bulbs. I'm thinking this is two...
