    Limited Slip/Locker 9.25" IFS

    That wasn't needed, he was trying to make match all the way down but I told him that area is fine so he stopped

    Limited Slip/Locker 9.25" IFS

    In this picture I circled the area that needed machined. It was only on one side of the carrier, so he machined it to match the other side. The part that is shiny in my first picture.

    Limited Slip/Locker 9.25" IFS

    Just got done putting a used 9.5 elocker out of a Hummer H2 into my 9.25 diff. I had to have it machined though because there is this big hump that hits the inside of the case. $30 of machining later and it fits just the same as the old open diff.

    GMT 400 Hydroboost swap

    I used a pcm mount from an 2000s S10, I did some trimming of the plastic pcm mount and I wallowed out 2 of the mounting holes in the mount to line up with the threaded holes on the inner fender where the ABS used to mount too. I'll try to remember and get some more pictures of it after work...

    GMT 400 Hydroboost swap

    I'm running a 06 3500hd master cylinder on my k1500 that I converted to hydroboost and deleted the ABS. The nbs MC won't fit the obs hydroboost so I swapped out the front portion of the obs hydroboost with the front portion of a nbs hydroboost. That way I didn't have to swap mounting plates and...

    I'll get more when I get home from work today, well unless I forget.

    Finally got around to seeing if the NBS master cylinder fit on the OBS Hydro boost, and it doesn't, well the 2006 3500HD one doesn't so I'm going to have to modify this HB to mate up the MC.

    The Stupid Lift Questions Thread

    When using lift springs instead of blocks do you have to source a wedge to correct the pinion angle? Because the lift blocks are tapered to correct the angle or am I missing something about using lift leaf springs.

    Lifted leaf springs

    Do you have to put a wedge between the axle and the lift springs to fix pinion angle? Like how the lift blocks are angled.

    GMT 400 Hydroboost swap

    Well I just picked up a k2500 with hydroboost and I have a nbs master cylinder for it, I'll see if it will bolt up with no issues. Might have to wait till weekend before I can get to it and let you know through. I know the bolt holes line up I think its just the part that fits into the HB is...

    GMT 400 Hydroboost swap

    It works pretty good, I believe the biggest thing to fix the soft/spongy pedal problem is the nbs master cylinder cause so many people just do that swap onto the obs vacuum boosters with great results, hell there are some disc conversion kits that come with a nbs master cylinder and the kit...

    I don't know if the master cylinders are different for disc and drum. I'm using a master cylinder with the biggest cylinder size that I could find I believe it was out of a 2006 3500hd, I swapped in a 02 9.5 14 bolt for disc brakes and used a adjustable proportioning valve.

    Now that you mentioned it I believe there is something different about the rod and its crimped on so its not easily swapped, I just took them both apart and swapped the whole rod assembly(power piston). Its been so long so I'm forgetting alot of the details.
