    1/2 ton truck with 3/4 suspension

    Here's a question along these lines. The 10 bolt in my truck is pretty whooped and I want to replace it before it completely shits out. I have access to a 2500LD with the 6 lug 14bolt rear. It's 3.73 and my truck is 3.42. I'd rather have 3.73 so my question is this, is the front diff on a...

    91 chevys first tow :)

    Yeah these half ton transmissions aren't meant for some of the abuse the rest of the truck can take.

    88 GMC Trail/DD Rig

    Is it even humanly possible to work that many hours in a week?!?!! Yeah I'm no body guy either and I don't even care if they look perfect I really just want to get the rot cut out and some fresh metal welded in. My rear axle is getting sloppy so I think rather than rebuilding it I'm going to...

    88 GMC Trail/DD Rig

    I gotta give you props for having the tenacity to not let this truck die. Although by the looks of it the only thing that will be original will be the cab by the time you are done. Don't worry about letting the OBS preservation society down. Anytime you want to put in some volunteer work I...

    91 chevys first tow :)

    I wouldn't exactly call that a small load, at least for a 1/2 ton. There's gotta be around 5,000lbs there. Nothing an OBS Chevy can't handle though! Especially a '91 RCLB ;) Your truck is my truck's twin except mine's black has a 305 and your body is in much much better condition.

    NEW LOW MILEAGE RECORD

    BEAUTIFUL truck but as everyone else has said wayyy too overpriced. It's not like GMT400's are rare by any means. Seems like $10k would be a reasonable asking price for something that clean and low mileage.

    The FREE Thread

    Does anyone have the ashtray insert from a '88-'94? Mine disintegrated and I really need a 12volt outlet.

    I am willing to bet the reason why your cab and bed don't line up is due to wore out cab mounts or the metal the cab mounts rest on is rotted out. Very common on these trucks.

    Pulsation that won't go away... please help

    I'll give that a try, steering isn't very sloppy but the front end has original ball joints and I'm not sure when the tie rods and stuff were replaced last.

    Pulsation that won't go away... please help

    I have not rotated the tires recently. Draggin, how would I check to see if it's the rear abs causing my issue?

    Pulsation that won't go away... please help

    That's good to know, how much did it cost to have them turned?? Seems a bit ridiculous new rotors would need to be turned though. Could wheel bearings or ball joints cause a pulsation?

    Pulsation that won't go away... please help

    Guys, I've had a pulsation in my truck anytime I put the brakes on which I thought for sure was from my brakes. I was convinced it was my rear brakes since you could see the bed shake when the brakes were applied. I had a mechanic friend of mine replace the rear drums and shoes for me since...

    swap/upgrades to front calipers

    Absolutely, F44 is the GM RPO code for heavy duty chassis. Basically a heavy half ton, don't know a whole lot about them but they come with 14 bolt semi floating rear ends and a few other upgrades for towing and such.

    swap/upgrades to front calipers

    Here's a question, I've got warped front rotors on the truck right now so I need to do a brake job. Thinking about going all out and getting the 1 ton calipers and using 1/2 ton rotors and pads, my truck isn't F44 equipped but I heard the F44 rotors are a little bit beefier. Can I run those...

    I'm digging your truck and your mods so far. Ever since I owned a dark green XJ I've been partial to green. This thread also reminds me of how bad I want an ECSB instead of my RCLB.

    In Serious Need of a 4T60E expert!!!!!

    Your clunk coming from a stop sounds like either the slip yoke needs to be greased or a bad u-joint. I have no idea about the OP's issue though.

    sorry... im in love with an nbs

    last i heard it was a 4.5 dmax and that they put the engine development on hold due to a shitty economy. It was also my understanding that the 4.5 dmax was being made for 3/4 ton and 1 ton trucks, not 1/2 tons.

    sorry... im in love with an nbs

    That's why the isuzu diesel is such an attractive swap. Sure it doesn't put out dmax #'s but for a daily driver you can get excellent mpg, while have a torquey diesel motor for towing and what not. I really wish GM would start putting smaller turbo diesels in half tons.

    sorry... im in love with an nbs

    i'd love to do an isuzu npr diesel swap in my OBS but it's a little out of my technical abilities.
