    Tune up

    AC Delco. I just fought a issue with the cheaper brand plug wires. Put a BRAND new set of Bosch on, and the wires were arcing. Never again will I use cheap tune up parts. I did get my AC Delco parts from Amazon for about half off tho.

    Blue 95's Build Thread

    Truck looks good. Not quite my style (lowering a 4wd), but isnt my truck lol. Ive been contemplating whether or not I want to drop my 2wd down some, or lift it up lol.

    Help - Lifting front end w/ coil springs

    I lifted mine with 2" lift springs. Im not thrilled about the ride, but it seems to havent gotten a lil better now that they have settled some. Im actually fixing to take them off and go back lower. Im not sure that I recommend lifting with springs or spring spacers tho. If you want to...

    Hunter's 97 Build Thread

    I know for a fact that mine are removed. The alignment will be maxed out and I dont think thats good enough either. Or maybe the springs have settled some and it needs to be realigned could be the issue im having with my tires. But the ride is really rough on the front. Funny story on...

    Hunter's 97 Build Thread

    Good looking truck. I was fixing to remove my 2" lift springs on mine and go back to the lowered level stance until this thread. I have been wanitng to do the the 6 lug swap for a while. I think you already may have answered this, but how does it ride now that you lifted it and how does...

    Well let me ask this. What's a good tire size to go with for the d44?

    D44 Hp & ford 9"

    Thanks for your input. I've been going back and forth with myself on it. I'm going to get the axles regardless, mainly for the np205. I may look into selling them and upgrading to a d60 and 14ff.

    D44 Hp & ford 9"

    I'm thinking 38s. The truck won't be too hardcore of a wheeler. It will be used to play a lil, hunt out of, and ride around. I know they aren't the best axles. My original plan was to go with a d60 and 14ff but Im getting a good deal on these and my plan is to make this as much of a budget build...

    D44 Hp & ford 9"

    What do y'all think about the d44hp and ford 9" I'm picking up for next to nothing? I'm doing some work on a four wheeler and I'm getting these and what I believe is a divorced ford np20 for the labor. Looks like someone already set it up for leaf springs but I will be redoing the mounts. I...

    sewlow...yeah I could see installing the valance easier with the bumper off, but I had to do some "adjusting" to get the bumper on and it took taking the bumper off a few times. Live and learn tho. mike...a dmax "bump"ed into me lol.

    It'll buff out!

    Well I was able to get it mostly back together this weekend. Only have to put some trim pieces back on it and do some adjusting on my headlights. I drove it for about 2 hours yesterday and it ran great. Go to head to work this morning and it started running like crap. It was cutting out...
