    I hate that, I ALWAYS seem to find a dirt road or mud pit on my cruise around and enjoy my bitchin' shiny ride... :shrug::cool: It's the rare(-er) Emerald green metallic with a sand metallic lower. Special order by grandpa when he bought the truck. Here's a pic I posted this spring after I...

    That's because I got the link to the wrong pic. I fixed it now.

    That actually did pretty good big Norway, it was just doing what a 6.5l Detroit does, just keep pulling and pulling, but not fast, but steady. cent frum a smaert fone

    sas minimum lift

    If you use stock front springs from a K-truck in a spring over, you'll get about 4" of lift. If you use 4" lift springs for a spring under (like I've decided to do much to the consternation of some...) it will get you approximately 3-1/2" of lift. These are both 47" front springs for a K-series...

    True, on this axle the rotors are almost the same size as what's on my Yukon now, which is to say it's under built for the rig, cause we all know how awesome the brakes are on these trucks... cent frum a smaert fone

    95 stepside SAC build

    Great build! Love the way it sits. I wouldn't do the towing mirrors, as I see you don't even have a tow hitch... just stick with what you have (which look fine) or get the newer style ones. Do you have any pics of the axle at ride height with out the wheel on? I'm just wanting to get an idea...

    sas minimum lift

    Actually... I never did say what I want to do in this thread, no any on this board. If I was building a tow rig, no way would I even bother lifting it, much less use a Yukon as a tow rig. Just sayin'. As for my intentions, I want a rig that is tough, built with easy to find parts, on smaller...

    sas minimum lift

    Ok, I'll do it all myself, with upgraded parts, plus a lift, and still not have a locker or much flex for around $2k. OR, I could do an sas, with upgraded parts, AND a locker, AND good flex, for $2k and/or a little more, doing the work myself. I did the math over and over again, and the...

    sas minimum lift

    The strength a solid axle provides, flex, lockers, etc. Ifs is pretty stout, but for what I plan to do, a solid axle fits the bill much better than ifs will. And my front end is shot, and the cost to fix it up to be as tough as a solid axle is pretty stiff. Ifs is pretty tough no doubt about...

    sas minimum lift

    Actually, since I'm likely going to use a wheel spacer in front, I'll get a spacer with lugs that match the rear axle. cent frum a smaert fone

    sas minimum lift

    It's spring under, which is what I want, as I don't want more than 4" lift max, so a 4" lift spring in 47" variety should net me about 3" of lift which is what I want. I figure a 1" spacer would work just fine with my planned wheel and tire combo. And as for the 7/16 studs, I'm going to swap in...

    That's nothing a 1' spacer on each side should be able to correct without any issue shouldn't it? I'm only going to run a 33" (285/70-17) tire.

    What is the factory track width from mounting flange to flange on the half-ton ifs? I just bought an axle from a jeep wagoneer that measures 65" flange to flange. cent frum a smaert fone

    What's it Worth?

    If I go for it I plan on talking to the owner of the place, not the paid by commission salepersons, with nada and kbb values, and several other examples of similar vehicles sold in the area for that price.

    What's it Worth?

    I spent a little time today perusing the wonderful world of cars, looking for the right one. What I would love to do is order a brand-new Ford Fusion 1.6 6-speed standard, maroon with a tan interior, but that's not going to happen at this juncture. So, my plan is to get a cheapie car or light...

    Ebay, I can't find any just like them anymore now. Next time I need to replace/upgrade I'll go with TYC euro style, same as those but oem quality.

    The paint color was a new one (extra cost) for 1999 called Meadow Green and the lower portion is Metallic Sand. I love the look, people at gas stations and grocery stores compliment me on it.
