    2wd 6.5 2500 to 4wd (Help?)

    Adding 4x4 to his truck is technically what we're doing. We're going to be using literally everything off of his truck and just put it on the 4x4 frame. Right now I'm just trying to figure out the t-case issue. New torsion bars are ~$300 so that's not a big issue. The reason for wanting to cut...

    2wd 6.5 2500 to 4wd (Help?)

    Well, I dug into the parts truck this weekend and wasn't happy with what I found. The guy said it had the transfer case in it still, it doesn't.. somebody had cut the torsion bars in half the interior parts that I was planning on using we're not there.. but I'm still wanting to do this. New plan...

    stock radio controller & Aftermarket head unit Help

    I say leave the under dash part and everything intact. Unpin the speaker wires and tape them up. Or if you're getting the harness I'm thinking of, splice into it and run a hot and ground to the under dash part. That should be all it needs to function the way you want. You'll need a wiring...

    Blown Head Gasket... What's next?

    ^^ To add to this, never try to install a power steering pulley with a hammer;) also, be sure you get the pulley aligned properly when reinstalling (great way to eat through belts if not.)

    2wd 6.5 2500 to 4wd (Help?)

    So a friend of mine has a 96 C2500 with a 6.5 TD in it. He uses it to haul cars around for my other friends and I pretty regularly. One problem he's always had was getting the thing stuck in mud with a trailer behind it. I'd then have to pull him out with my blazer (which didn't even struggle to...

    Are you swapping in the LQ9 also? If so, I'm interested! I plan on doing the same thing in my Blazer. LQ9/4l80/D60 front/D70 rear/~44" MT

    8 hi Headlight mod???

    I say put some pods in the bumper lights. It'd be a lot easier than modifying a pair of headlamp brackets to fit the core support on the bottom. And for the blinker problem you could use an amber halo ring as the bumper light. Something like this but just on the bumper lights and with Amber...

    Unsolvable oil leak

    Fixed this a long time ago, but never got around to posting the fix. It was the three oil gallery plugs above the cam. Put them in and it ran no problem. Sent from my ONEPLUS A3000 using Tapatalk

    Unsolvable oil leak

    Well, my dad figured it out.. I think. When I replaced the engine in it I used the best parts of each engine. Apparently there were differences between the two oil pans, and I picked the wrong one to use. My dad said he tried to put RTV on the pan gasket to see if it'd seal better, but when he...

    Unsolvable oil leak

    I guess I forgot to add that I put the sleeve on. It leaks like a siv. So that leads me to believe it's coming from the pan, not the rear main. Sent from my ONE A2005 using Tapatalk

    The Stupid Engine Questions Thread

    I should have primed the engine on the stand, but this is only the second time I've built an engine. The plugs were put in by the builder. My dad says he's certain that it's not leaking from there. I thought I saw a leak from there, but my dad said it was just from the oil on the flywheel...

    Unsolvable oil leak

    Not yet. I'm not giving up on it though. Put too much time and money into it. Sent from my ONE A2005 using Tapatalk
