    The Stupid Axle Questions Thread

    So I’m doing the 14 bolt sf swap. And dropping 4.10s in it. I’m wanting to find a front diff and build it and just swap it in. My buddy has one out of an NBS. My question is, will a front diff out of an NBS truck work in a 96 K1500?

    Which wheels would look better

    Definitely go with the first ones. Here's my 96 Sierra with the GMC counterpart to those with 285/70R17s on it.

    Truck won't move in forward gears.

    UPDATE: The transmission guy at work got my trans torn down. 113K on this rebuild and he says it looks like a fresh rebuild. The print on the clutches from the factory was still on them. And only mild heat wear on the 2-3 clutch pack (I think). So now I'm going to look into my t-case (NP243C)...

    Truck won't move in forward gears.

    It's gonna get a complete overhaul. It's got a tad over 100K on it. And they weren't exactly easy miles. Thanks for the insight, guys.

    Truck won't move in forward gears.

    It did it in low gear too. I'm getting it ripped out tonight.

    Truck won't move in forward gears.

    Howdy. I've got a 96 GMC Sierra K1500 and it won't move in any forward gears. Reverse seems fine. But in drive it makes a very loud clanking/grinding sound and it gets louder under load and won't move forward. Any thoughts on this issue? Thank you in advance.

    Brake upgrade- what have you done?

    Indeed it will. I did it to mine. Used a booster from a 99 Express 3500. Stopping power is great, but I still have a spongy pedal. I'm definitely gonna do the rear NBS brake swap. But i'm on the fence about whether I should do the 1 ton from calipers, or do the front NBS swap as well.

    OBS Chevy/GMC on NBS Wheels

    Is it just me, or do these vaguely resemble the 454SS wheels?

    Post pics of your truck with newer style factory oem wheels

    Does anyone have a picture of these rims on a GMT400 GMC truck?

    Door latch lube

    Use GM Super Lube. Stuff works great.

    GMT 400 Hydroboost swap

    I've got a boost unit out of a 99 3500 express 5.7L and a pump from an 02 1500HD 6.0L. Now as far as a master cylinder, if I get one for a 99 express l, will the brake line fitting threads from my truck match the threads on the express master cylinder? My truck is a 96 sierra 1500 Z71 5.7L.

    G80 Conversion/Swap

    I was mistaken then. Lol

    G80 Conversion/Swap

    If I'm not mistaken, 4x4 trucks should come with a G80/LSD from the factory. Check your glove box RPO sticker for the code "G80" to see if you already have one.

    Mmkay, well I think I'll pass on this one then. Thanks for the info.

    The Overhead Console Thread

    I assume most, if not all newer homes will have rolling code openers?

    The Overhead Console Thread

    Hey guys. I found this homelink on eBay. I noticed most of you guys have a different style than this. I have a 96 GMC K1500. Will this work in the overhead console? http://bit.ly/13EVZpv

    Turn signal switch replacement

    My truck is a 96 GMC 1500. My hazard switch only works when you press it with a lot of force and hold it. Even then it doesn't always stay in contact. When I does make contact, only one side of the hazards are indicated on the cluster, and are flashing outside. I'm thinking I've gotta replace...

    headlights are always on?

    My bad. I jumped the gun a bit on this one. I checked all the fuses and ebrake. A simple google search brought up the common problem with the diode under the dash. Replaced that, I've got DRLs now. =)

    headlights are always on?

    Looks like I'm the only one who wants their DRLs to work and they don't. Any ideas?

    Block heater

    Sweet, thanks. I'm getting ready to move to ND within the next couple months, so I want to prepare my truck.

    Block heater

    We're block heaters an option on our trucks? If so, where do they go and what all is involved in installing it? My rig is a 96 GMC Sierra 1500 5.7L 4x4.
