Hi, I've made a few posts but I'm brand new to this forum or any other forum for that matter. I posted my truck under off-road builds but I'm gonna continue here because it's not a closed thread.

It looks a little raked to me, I might turn the t bars up a little. The ORD shackles are slightly taller than blocks.

I would highly recommend these, much much nicer ride than blocks and no axle wrap.

When I did the shackles and u bolt flip I didn't quite get the axle centered. It's only off by about a half inch but if you look at it from both wheel wells, you can see a difference. I'm also thinking wheel spacers. My rears look pretty tucked in.

One of the previous owners did a nice job on the bed liner, it's getting beat down to the primer though. That's okay I guess, I work with this truck, I just don't want it to rust.

I don't like putting stickers on my truck but with a tbi 350 with 216,000 miles hauling a big truck around needs a little horse power boost somehow right?

Found a hurst shift knob, wire wheeled, polished and drilled it to fit on my t case shifter

My 94 c1500 with the 4l60E had cup holders but not my 94 k2500 with the NV4500

Interiors in nice shape, I like the burgundy, it reminds me of my grandpas old ford we called big red. Invisible steering wheel mod.

My friends don't complain about the back seats in the 3/4 ton. Never mind my junk.

Stock tbi 350. Decent miles on it but it's still got plenty of life left. I did the lid flip, dunno if it actually helps it but it doesn't hurt it either. Runs very nice after a tbi rebuild and tune up. I have a tbi spacer I just need the fuel line extensions. I also have some stainless eBay shorty headers. I'm building a mild low end torque replacement motor for this one though. I'll post more about it later, I have all the parts I just need some machine work done to the block and probably the crank.

I got the Off Road Design shackle flip brackets, heavy duty hangers with grease-able bushings and the u bolt flip kit. I think it sits a bit taller than a 4 inch lift but the ride is awsome.
Brackets: http://offroaddesign.com/catalog/shacklekit.htm
Shackles w/ bushings: http://www.offroaddesign.com/catalog/hdREARshackles.htm
U bolt kit (not necessary and there's very little clearance from them and the back of the brake drum FYI): http://www.offroaddesign.com/catalog/uboltreversal.htm
Thanks for the kind words!

So I think I put mine on backwards [emoji23] ones on the internet look like theirs to. I emailed them just to make sure but it looks like I have a project to do this weekend [emoji23]. That would make sense though because then the shackle could flex more, it would also explain the new rake on my truck.

Thanks for the info! I want to lift the rear of my 02 sierra without blocks and I think this will work good! I have blocks on my 95 cheyenne may have swap to this set up also!

Your welcome! I really like your truck!

Similar to mine, mines 5 speed also!

Very nice! Seems like the nice red on the 400s hold up better than other colors. Or maybe they tend to be taken better care of.
