    What is all needed to run a simple sas with 40s on a k1500?

    Will power and commitment, knowledge of how things work together, and the idea that it's custom so it needs fine tuning for couple years. Mechanical experience. I used sky offroad kit. Leaf spring brackets $550 (bolt on) Sky offroad steering kit $400 Procomp 2.5" leafs for blazer $300...

    shifting problems after LS swap

    Yeah sometimes they wrap foil around the length of wire and ground one side to prevent any interference from stray voltage. In this case I think its supposed to have it. It's definitely something with the VSS once I'm at a complete stop the speed from Ecu is still slowly descending and is at...

    shifting problems after LS swap

    So did some digging around and sorting. The vss wires are not shielded at all. Assuming it should be within shield loom? When I did my swap I bought a stand alone harness and adapted it to my existing wiring that was staying I never paid any mind to the vss wires. So this is probably my problem...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    still cant get this worked out. ended up getting a np205 or 208 front output yoke and a front driveshaft for 88 suburban. the yoke slipped on felt good had some in and out play, but didnt go all the way on. original yoke wasnt splined all the way through. about 1/4 was shaved down splines. so i...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    aaronb going through your build thread, truck is pretty nice. curious why you did a track bar? did you drive it without it at all? was it apart of the preplan? just curious because i originally did not plan on running one. had a 95 wrangler that had one. it road so stiff it was like a gokart...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    ive found that same yoke on ebay and looks same as what i need. not splined all the way through, but would need to change my driveshaft from the circle style flange to that style on my cv if i can find something to change it, i would. very nice looking truck by the way. debating on taking this...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    Nice! thanks for the pics, b454rat truck looks good! so still working on this. everything is pretty much done. truck is drivable at this point. so for the driveshaft situation, i ordered an np208 yoke. problem is, its splined all the way through yoke and original was splined 90% of the way...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    Yeah its for sure a high pinion. I'll see what happens when this flange comes in. If it fits ill just call one of those custom driveshaft places. I'll investigate the f250 driveshaft. I can probably grab one from junkyard on the way home one day this week. Thanks for the help though. I'm headed...

    SAS front driveshaft solutions?

    Yeah. If I have it on the side it binds up on then it doesn't reach the axle. Im wondering if I can swap out the yoke for k5 flange style and then get custom length cv style driveshaft. I pulled it apart and its 32 spline yoke. Supposedly the np208 that was in a k5 is 32 spline. I ordered one...
