    Long wheelbase to short wheel base 94 gmc 1500 reg cab

    This is the final result after I got her painted. The front end is sitting higher than the rear because I have my motor pulled at the moment. The 454 swap went about as smoothly as I could have asked. Everything seems to be working well. I've really learned a lot throughout this process. Mainly...

    Long wheelbase to short wheel base 94 gmc 1500 reg cab

    Yeah that’s true... it’s a little late now i finished it up this past weekend. I welded the outside of the piece you can see in the picture about then decided to get another plate for the inside. I used the bolts to sand which the frame then went ahead and put a weld around the inside plate...

    I continued reading about it and see what your saying now. It’s wild how not bringing the welds together allows it to flex a tiny bit to prevent cracking.

    Piston identification please help!

    Idk what I’m missing but I can’t identify my pistons on my 454. I have numbers but nothing matches. I looked pretty hard for threads on this situation but I couldn’t find one specific to my situation. One side of the inside of the piston has SE-6127 the other side has a PA3074A. I have couple...

    Long wheelbase to short wheel base 94 gmc 1500 reg cab

    One thing I didn’t do was measure my actual wheelbase distance before I cut. I Had the frame specs so I didn’t need to. But just cause it had to be perfect I searched and searched for exactly how much I needed to cut out every place I looked said 14” so I was pretty positive it was 14”. I landed...

    Long wheelbase to short wheel base 94 gmc 1500 reg cab

    It appears I’ve found myself in the lovely process of Shortening my frame on my 1994 GMC Sierra regular cab. I’ve found a few threads on the subject but it seems most people take the route of moving leaf spring mounts, shock mounts, cross member forward 14” on the frame then cutting the back...
