Quite the list! Did you see their new extended shock towers for the front? I’d see if they’d add those on and swap shocks accordingly

Interesting you’d want a car transmission in your cucv. Carry on. the nv4500 is pretty great though

I wonder if the OP meant the TR-4050 which is a solid replacement for the nv4500.

I went with hangers from CFM industries that allows the use of 64" springs out back and 56" and mounts in the stock location

Are you keeping stock length springs front and rear?

If you’ve got a late model with the internal slave you can just use that setup. The AA setup moves it externally if you buy the added bracket, that’s what I have in my m1009. You can also just use it with mechanical linkage like a standard square body but I have no done it personally.

My turbo 6.2 is fine in Colorado.

And how’s it driving? I assume much more usable power

I can say this was not my experience in any way. I maybe have $1000 in my setup and that’s with changing things over time and ultimately buying an hx35 adapter kit and aftermarket intake manifold a few years ago. There are plenty of write ups on here to guide people. I also built mine in a...

My hx35 whistles quite a bit.

I went from sagging oem to poly and it’s for sure smoother and less vibration. That’s my opinion though, results may vary.

I haven’t driven it with them yet but I had an 07 Sierra with them and they were great. I can’t stand the single piston d60 ones. I also had the calipers already, bought Yukon brand hubs and turned them down on a manual lathe and then the rotors just slip right over.

There’s a company that allows you to put modern 2500 brakes or dodge brakes on a Dana 60. I’ve got the 2500 setup with slip on rotors

Poly motor mounts really opens the space up and they feel much better than collapsed rubber

yep, 6.5 drivers won't fit. I just cut and modified the aftermarket crossover to work with my 6.2 manifold. The downpipe is hard, there's barely enough room between the manifold and frame rail IF you have good motor mounts. Running outside the frame is not ideal but is the path of least resistance.
