    SAS Draglink length

    I'm doing an SAS on my 94 k1500, I ordered my cross over and highsteer kit from Northwest fab (Canadian) as they make a wicked kit with incredible parts and the beffiest setup in the industry and they are 3 hours from where I am. They also beat ORD by 90$ on price before conversion. The rest of...

    EGR problems

    to the top! seriously I need to figure this out. I put a new solenoid in the truck and its still an issue, vaccum is present through the solenoid at idle. I pulled the valve open with my mittyvac, and it stays open until I disconnect it. I cant figure out whats funky in the system

    EGR problems

    My truck has a wicked bad bog at idle speed, and it lopes when idling cold. I have determined that something in the EGR system is the problem. when I unplug the vacuum line to the EGR valve the truck runs awesome, leading me to believe that the solenoid is allowing the valve to see vacuum at...

    Offroad Design Shackle Flip

    would you score me the measurement from the bottom of the frame rail down to the center-line of the shackle bolt? (assuming that is on a 88-98 truck)

    Axle Shims: 4" Shackle Flip 1" Zero Rate AAL

    you will get 5.5" the rough country tapered blocks are 4 degrees, my truck has no vibrations and its got the 4" and a 2" add a leaf. however when you lower the end of the leaf the leaf surface flattens out so you might not need a 4 degree shim

    14 Bolt Swap How to

    Has anyone with this swap had to change parking brake cables? I went from stock ten bolt to a 14boltsf, and my parking brake is banjo string tight and locked on now, it never used to be this way with the ten bolt Sent from slow non-vortec IPhone using tapatalk

    Parking brake problems

    I just finished a 14 bolt semi floater swap into my 94 half ton that had a 10 bolt. I finally got it all installed and my rear drums are dragging. Not enough to lock wheels up but enough to barely let it roll down my driveway. The wheel cylinders are new. The brakes have been bled. I'm...

    Shackle Flip kits (and related RCX problems)

    A zero rate add-a-leaf? hows that work?, why does the flip un-center the axle? and is it true the droop better? I know the math behind a inverted shackle says more angular movement. but I have never ran a flipped shackle.

    6 inch lift

    I have a 6" RCX lift, and a winch bumper in the front, I make 35's look tiny. if you have a narrow front bumper or are willing to trim the stock one, you can run 37's. I have no sway bar and cant touch a 35'" anywhere in the fender when fully flexed and turned.

    Lift Questions

    6" should be plenty for 35" without a BL lift. I have a 6" rough country, ended up making 35's look tiny. I could probably run 37's with very minimal trimming. but I also have alot less front bumper then stock trucks, which is what ends up trimmed the most to fit big tires

    Shackle Flip kits (and related RCX problems)

    I have a 94 k1500 on a 6" RCX lift, I have the add-a-leafs and block in the rear, I'm looking to maybe run an ORD shackle flip and ditch the block, what are your guy's experience with shackle flips for daily driving purposes, and more importantly for wheel travel, I do not want to loose...
