    Wheel spacing info for lowered trucks

    Ok guys a little help here. I have a 2000 Tahoe Limited that I am looking into wheels. It came from the factory with stock 16x7s and was lowered 2” from the factory. I found a set I like unfortunately the company doesn’t offer custom offsets. Here is what they have: Front 20x8.5”, 0 offset...

    Tranny Swap

    Mine happens to be the F44 package so it has the 14 bolt 3/4 ton rear end and an extra leaf. Pulls like a champ. I’d love to swap it even for an automatic though to keep the wife happy. May rethink the 700r4 and look into a TH400. That will hurt fuel mileage but it only makes short trips to the...

    Help! Noob here..

    It is the granny low 4 speed. The truck was previously owned by a lead mechanic at a local shop. A swap is very possible. When I get back home to the truck I can check the markings on the tranny to verify. I do know it has the 14 bolt rear end from the 3/4 ton trucks.

    Help! Noob here..

    Thanks man. It's good to know that someone has done it. I looked into the fluid and it is fairly expensive as tranny fluids go. But whatever it takes to do the job right.

    Help! Noob here..

    Yeah Shaft I checked the level right after I bought it. It could probably use changing though. Thanks for the info....I will look into it. Have any of you guys ever rebuilt the NV4500? From what I have read so far it isn't too complex. I may attempt to tackle it myself. After all, what good is a...

    Help! Noob here..

    Ok guys, first off this is my first post on this forum and yes....I am a noob. So hello to you all. I looked for a "General Information" section but didn't see one. I have several issues I'd like to inquire about. I recently purchased a 1994 Chevy K1500 extended cab 4x4 (my first older Chevy...
