    Offroad Design Solid Axle hanger kit

    i have a 1979 Ford Dana 60 under my CCLB 1998 k3500 with an Offroad Design’s hanger kit. I noticed a couple weeks ago the previous owner put some cheap shackles in the back of the truck and they were starting to rub metal on metal to the frame bracket. Prior to mixing this I went under my truck...

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    Thank you. I’ll keep posting tabs on the build as it goes along. It’s going to be a long road for the Chummins...

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    Can’t pull the borg Warner....it’s rigged all up for the Dana 60 (79) swap on my crew and as far as I know they were all 29 spline or whatever. Fingers crossed. The swap will be done as soon as I get a harness and then an adaptor plate and bellhousing for my 6bt for my crew cab. I want...

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    Yep. I mean bolt the transfer case in the 95 onto the donor 454 and 80e. Spline should be the same. I just wasn’t sure on the harness wiring

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    I should be able to just grab the fuel system from the 454 truck and switch it correct...? The crossmember shouldn’t be bad and I should be able to bolt my transfer case to the 80e and 454. I may have to deal with driveshafts we will see. I like the flex stainless fuel line idea. That’s badass...

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    Yeah I’m going to throw in the 4l80e with the 454. I’m assuming the transmission crossmember will move back a bit. Then I’ll use the exhaust from the crew cab into my single cab 1500 and just cut it down and stuff. The 10 bolt is a 4.56 and we will see how long it lasts. I’m just most curious to...

    1998 CC 454 to 12v with an NV4500 opinions

    I have a 1998 crew cab long box with a 454 and a 4l80e Transmission. I also have a rebuilt 89 12v cummins with a 1st gen intercooler, 1997 Dodge NV4500, HE351 turbo and 2nd Gen stock turbo, and a 6.5 turbo diesel dash, Pedals from 93-94ish Chevy, some other miscellaneous items for the swap. I...

    Come on people. Someone out there has to have done this.

    95 Tbi to 98 454 vortec motor

    I’m planning on putting a 98 k3500 454 in my k1500 95 350 truck. I’m aware that I will need to find a harness and grab the motor mounts out of the crewcab. I’m putting a Cummins in my 1998 crew cab with an NV4500 so I figured why not throw the perfectly good bb into my old blown out tbi truck...

    Non shifting 4l60e

    I took the pump out and it was destroyed. But I also found out that the torque converter was junk also. So I had the shop I brought them fix me up with a new pump and converter. Put those in tonight and everything is back together. Still don't have **** for movement! The fluid came out clean...

    Also do pumps change with gmt400 60es or not?

    Non shifting 4l60e

    I run a 2200 stall. But yes 8 transmissions. Those pumps are expensive!

    Non shifting 4l60e

    It's people like you that save me. I've been frustrated with my truck for two weeks now due to several issues orginating from one main issue and my brain is just fried. Now that you explain this to me, I sit here and conclude that I should have figured that out myself. Considering I've put 8...

    Non shifting 4l60e

    i have a 1995 k1500 with a 4l60e. It lost all gears just driving down the road. I had ground issues that took out my shift indictator, blower motor, wipers, brake lights, 4x4, and ignition module. I'm assuming somehow it damaged the transmission electronics. Fluid level is spot on, and fluid is...

    G117 ground

    I will add one regardless just to be sure but the frame has one on the passenger side below the manifold to the firewall, beside the ecm harness wires and heater core lines that go into the cab. On another note both straps off the battery have been cleaned (to fender and to the block) and...
