    Nbs or nnbs wheels on 305s

    When you crank again you'll need another alignment, rule of thumb is safely cranked is 2 or 3 ribs on CV boot touching(can't remember but want to say 3), 1 ton front calipers and a NBS master cylinder are pretty common brake upgrades too and there are write ups on those just understand when you...

    Nbs or nnbs wheels on 305s

    Lift either suspension or body so you don't have to crank so much the front end hates life, gears 4:56 or 4:88 and brakes. A lot of guys don't do gears for 35s but quite a few are the same guys that complain how weak 700s and 60Es are. It puts a lot of stews on the transmission without them due...

    Info on NV4500

    I understand that, my Rubicon might not be a power house but with a 4.46 1st gear, 4:1 lowrange tcase and 4.10s I am at like 3mph at around 5200rpm lol, the front and rear air locked D44s are cool too. Back to the thread tho, OP you said this is going in a 454 SS why not a t5 or t56?

    How do you know if your truck originally had keyless entry?

    Really, almost every late 400 I have seen with power has keyless entry. At least around here.

    LED headlights for W/T front

    That is one thing I miss about my NBS with 6 hi mod, could see road for between 1/4-1/2 mile and lit up signs for just over a mile. Been thinking about getting trucklights for jeep so im going to stay tuned on how they last for you.

    99 chevy k2500 ccsb speakers rpo UQ3

    I would ditch the 4x6s. Probably leave them and just unhook, 5.25s produce better sound all together even cheap 5.25s vs good 4x6s, wiring speakers up is simple. I would run decent 6.5 components in front and coax 5.25s unless 6.5s will fit in the back too.

    total replacement wiring harness

    The 400s are old enough and have a big enough following I would think there would be a entire replacement harness out there but Google failed to find anything, figured I'd ask here. Does anyone know of one and if so could you post the link?

    Wheel backspacing

    I will edit this with pics when I get home from work but I had 16x8 4.5" BS (0 offset) ar nitros and they stuck out about how far you want looked really good just out side the fender. I also had a set of 15x8 with 3 5/8" BS and with just a 10.5 the tires stuck out pretty far. I'll also throw a...

    4HI doesnt engage

    So im digging this back from the dead, the truck would engage 4 lo just fine but not 4 hi. Im planning an ls swap soonish to have a truck again since I sold my 800 crew cab. 4wd would be nice to have working. My question is do I have an internal problem with the t case or is it really just a $13...

    Help me decipher this lol (body lift/roll pan laws...)

    Lucky to get away with tint. I did for 2 years then 2 tickets in 16 days at $127.50 each, 70% (stock) is limit I had 12% lol. Lift here is max height and max width if its smaller than 13'6" x 8'6" and has lights its legal.
