    Clutch time (LS + nv3500)

    Long story short, been running the original 4.3L clutch in my nv3500 for four years now, and she's slipping now. Engine is mild, flywheel dyno'd at 438hp. I planned on this transmission to grenade long ago but it's still tight as can be. Are there any good clutch options I can look into...

    What type of rims are on your truck

    Playing around with the idea of going back to small wheels. My 20s just ride horrible. Had these 15x8 rallys around, putting 245/60 and 275/60 on. Going to sand blast and paint the wheels, just not sure what color. The rear tires are a tight fit with 7" drop in the back, but they do fit Sent...

    G80 CARRIER QUESTIONS

    The kit will work with your g80, you "might" get lucky using all factory shims, but I doubt it. I just did motive 4.10s in my truck and had to mess with pinion shims as well as the carrier shims. Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

    DBW pedal Construction

    I modified an 05 truck pedal for my swap. Works excellent and feels perfect. Plus the 05 bracket bolted to two of the original holes, only had to drill 1 more Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

    NV3500 rebuild

    He probably means syncos, not servos. If the noise comes and goes with clutch pedal action it's most likely the throw out bearing. Pilot bearing would squeal all the time if it was bad Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

    static drop pics

    Wheels were 15x8. 4" backspace. I think that worked out to a -12 offset? This setup rubbed, had to roll my fender lips Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

    Motive gear pinion markings

    I'm putting a set of motive 410's in my rear end (8.5" 10 bolt) and I'm trying to decipher the factory markings on the pinion that they engraved. Looks like Z89 and Z572..I just don't see how these are pinion depth markings. Maybe I'm just tired and missing something simple. I made setup...
