    K1500 10 Bolt to 14 Bolt Semi Float Swap & Drive Shaft Length Question

    I recently purchased a 14 bolt semi float from a '94 K2500 with the six lug pattern and the perhaps infamous G80 limited slip. I believe the 14 bolt differential version of the G80 has less reports of exploding, and some guys think the G80, if used correctly with appropriately sized tires for...

    Pizza Cutter Tires 235/85R16 Pics?

    Man that tire looks sick on your truck! I’m really starting to think of ditching K02’s for an AT in 255/85r16’s.

    That looks badass. Are you stock height no crank?

    Pizza Cutter Tires 235/85R16 Pics?

    Honestly, that would be the much better size for me! I want closer to a 33” tall tire that’s narrower to reduce rotational weight while maintaining all the ground clearance I can. It’s just not unfortunately offered in the BFG K02’s… for 16” wheels at least. Do you have a tire model...

    Pizza Cutter Tires 235/85R16 Pics?

    Hmm Never messed around with 2wd models. My limited understanding from looking online is a 4" spindle lift moves the hub 4" down, providing 4" of lift? But I'm also assuming stock 2wd models sit a little lower stock than 4wd. I think stock, center of hub to fender is about 21" for my k1500, I'll...

    That is definitely not as small looking as I thought it would be. So you have a 4" block in the rear as well? It just doesn't look like 4" lift, probably just because I had in my head that a 31.7" tire would look real small with even my 2" BDL.

    Pizza Cutter Tires 235/85R16 Pics?

    Yes, a Narrower tire. I don't have the original door sticker, but RPO code? Is that in the glove box? That doesn't look bad at all with a 4" spindle lift. Honestly this was the photo I needed to see most. Certainly looks quite a bit smaller than what I have now, but not as significantly so as I...

    Pizza Cutter Tires 235/85R16 Pics?

    Been thinking of a thinner tire, everything I read says I'm not losing performance on trails if I do. But I'm a little concerned it's going to look too small. Currently I have a 2" BDL with 295/75R16 BFG K02's Really love that size but the 33.3" tall tire (brand new) killed quite a bit of power...

    CB SWR meter not reading

    My PA speaker is also very quiet yea AK49 that’s what I was thinking. My mic may be the problem. Especially since my PA is also very quiet even with the volume maxed out! It seems to make a registering noise in the unit when I key it though...

    CB SWR meter not reading

    Thanks for the reply delta. Doesn’t seem to change anything. This morning I realized my excess cable was also wound pretty tight which I hear is bad news causing resistance. But I have it all stretched out right now and still nothing hmm I’m super stumped.

    CB SWR meter not reading

    Hey guys, Couldn't find a thread in here talking about my specific issue. Hope there's some CB guys in here. I just installed a CB and antenna for the first time. Hood mounted Firestik Firefly. SWR meter in line to a Bearcat 980 SSB receiver. Have an 18' cable run. The "jumper" cable from my...

    Alternator good but not charging battery

    yea it worked up until that install. But I also went through the process of removing the entire dash to fix the infamous blender flap doors that fell off in my rig. So everything was disconnected. And my truck was sitting for quite some time like that. But my remote start/alarm system was my...

    Alternator good but not charging battery

    Yea that’s just where I tested it. I’ll find a ignition on circuit if I need to use it. right now I’ve tracked continuity in the brown wire with my multimeter through the engine bay. This picture is the fire wall bus. The pin that the tip of the lead from my multimeter is pointing at is the...

    Alternator good but not charging battery

    First off thanks guys. I cleaned and applied dielectric grease to the connection and got nothing. Wiggled the plug got nothing. I spliced the brown wire with a quick disconnect. After starting the truck I connected it to the auxiliary post in the fuse box. And I got 15 volts at the battery...
