    Clutch issues on manual swap

    Did you use a pressure plate for a 98 or the 94? The earlier trans (like would have been in a 94) with external slave use a different height on the pressure plate fingers. If you use that 95 an older pressure plate with the 96+ internal slave the clutch is always disengaged as the fingers are...

    Drunkcanuks build...... finally!!!

    You guys got to remember when we were out cruising around all night gas was like $1.05/gal (at least for me). I understand why they don't do it now with it over $3, it's to dang high an around my area the places we used to hang out at, they got the cops involved an had everyone ran off if you're...

    1999 C3500 CC DRW Build

    I thought about getting one like the rear for the front too. I like the way the front cap looks an it's an actual Alcoa part but it requires a specific style of cover to hold it in place that I don't have. If I had the correct covers it wouldn't be an issue. You are correct about the lack of...

    C1500 or LD drop spindle on a c2500HD?

    Upper ball joint is the difference suspension wise, then everything brake related to match the spindles of course.

    Look up Edison tire company on facebook. I was going to buy direct bolts from him until I decided I just had to have real acolas. I recommended him over LB on a post the other day with a bit of back story as to why. He reached back out to me an helped me verify what I thought the issue was in 5...

    I agree with that, if your doing direct bolts, it's gotta have the phantom 10 lug. Otherwise it looks weird.

    So if you've followed this thread you've seen most of my suspension/wheel journey an its issues. The latest one is the front center caps constantly popping while the truck is in motion. I've been back an forth with this for a while now with lowboy, an I cannot honestly recommend them to anyone...

    1991 C1500 in Florida

    If you just going to use it for your phone they make usb charger that will take the place of the lighter socket so you don't need the adapter. I put them in everything we have because who smokes in the car anymore....

    Still haven't got to the brakes (like they aren't important or something :lol: ) These followed me home today :doh2: Got a weird thing going on with the front center caps making a popping/clicking noise at low speeds in parking lots an stuff. Can't get it to stop, even took some off the...

    96 C3500 RCLB aka Stumpy

    That stinks for sure, but if you're happy with what you got then I wouldn't dwell on it to much. There are alot of those flipper guys up this way an they always seem to sell them, but sometimes it takes a while an they usually go out of state.

    I didn't post it here when it came in but my left side caliper came in. The company wrapped the raybestos box in a bag an shipped it :doh2: Then ups "lost" it for 2 days. It seems to be ok, not much you can tear up on it but man idk why they thought that was a good idea. Swapped in a multi...

    1999 C3500 CC DRW Build

    Well the rear brakes are about the only thing left on my original list of issues the truck had. I've been putting it off because I don't want to deal with the hubs an all. It's definitely not getting any better :lol: the Dr rear still grabs pretty bad an it's now squealing at times. Last week I...

    Alright so I was looking back through here for the axle socket because I got to get off my tail an do my rear brakes. I notice you still havent done anything for center caps? I have some decent chevy ones you need with just 2 conditions: 1. We need to get some pictures of our trucks...

    I have no idea but I hope you figure it out. Mine will grab really quickly on the Dr side rear an slide those tires. I've never checked to see if the pass side is working or not lol. I dread pulling that all apart myself.
