5 inch lift and 39 X 11 tires here is my rig. has 5 inch lift. (4 inch with zero rates) tires are 39 X 11, just narrow enough for them to fit in the fender wells. my front fenders have heavy modification allowing the fender well to be 4 inches bigger. I have no rubbing anywhere on the front...

LMC - colorbond. It works well if you clean the parts well and use the clear sealer. good thing is you can always touch up spots that get scratched.

I bought an 87 suburban and parted it out to get the power windows, Locks, tilt wheel, better front bucket seats, civilian gauge cluster, intermittent wipers. I purchased new switches from LMC. All other parts were re-used from burb. I bought the burb for $800. I traded the motor and trans for...

I have an eaton e-locker. I have used it a couple times and it works well. Only time will tell on its durability. Do not have to rely on air even though I plan to install air in the future. I believe it was around $850 plus install. I rebuilt entire axle when I had it installed. Rich

changed oil and filter. changed fuel filter base and filter stock one started leaking. changed air filter. Got rear driveshaft fixed. have not driven it yet. Rich

don't go a year without steering box brace with that setup you will be doing frame repair. Bolt on one is good. Have a plan for rear brake proportioning valve. some have trouble with getting it to adjust to the additional suspension travel. Rich

if you are having alt. problems, fix that first. It may resolve the Dakota digital signal. My DS1 drives a large tach in the dash and the US shift module. I get an intermittent blip on the tach, it has a little bounce every 20 to 30 seconds but it does not seem to bother the trans computer. I...

I did confirm last weekend I am getting 16 MPG on the high way. I drove I-45 from Texas city to Madisonville. (bucees to bucees for those that are familiar with the route.) Verified with garmin. I ran 70 to 75 the entire way and got almost exactly 16mpg which is the same as my 2014 duramax

pretty sure it is driver side goes to front battery. I am going to do the same as far as the cooler. My tranny is running to hot. The radiator keeps it at about 210 and can climb to 230 (that is the highest mine as ever gone) under heavy load. I am going not use the radiator cooler portion...

My cv joint on my rear drive shaft gave out on me today. I got to use the front wheel drive option on the t-case. I did not have any tools to remove the rear shaft so I used front wheel drive only to take the load off of it and was able to do about 50 mph all the way home. I did remove it and...

what are yall wanting done. I have family in wills point, go there every week to check on my cows. I have never heard of 'texas square bodies' . I will try to check them out on my next trip and give some feedback. I should be there this weekend. I know of a few people just depends on what you...

If I had the money, it would be a P-400 in front of a 4l80e with a hero 3 speed transfer case. Those three pieces will cost you about 15K but will bolt in without any serious cutting. It is still probably cheaper than a d-max with Allison install. This would be my long range after I win the...

and by the way, I had to pay them shipping for them to send them back to me. twice I did this and then gave up. get your money back while you can

send it back. dispute it on your credit card and go get a US shift 1 controller. you will be happy you did.

I got that three times before giving up. the first unit they sent me had an EFI program in it and not the trans program. I wish I would have warned you sooner. good luck. don't let it trash your tranny. one of the three ruined a brand new rebuild. it over pressured it. Rich

I have all of those parts from ord plus all the other ones they make on my 1009. they have good stuff. I installed the front upper shock mounts. I do not see these on your list. I ran the same shocks front and rear. maybe this is why you have different shocks front and rear. I also had weld on...

stay away from tci. it is crap. went through three before giving up and buing US shift1 controller. very good unit. comes with wiring harness. you do need tach interface which you can get from DS1 module from Dakota digital. the Dakota digital and us shift controller together cost less than...

on my install I had to lengthen the rod and move the mounting hole in the frame. I made and add on bracket that bolted to the original hole and moved the hole toward the back of the truck about an inch to 1.5 inches. It still took a lot of working with to get the linkage to work with all the...

driving the truck I have finally been able to drive the truck. I had to put my DD in the shop for some warranty work and declined to get the loaner so I could drive the 1009. I have been from Galveston to college station and now from college station to east of Dallas around the canton I-20...

Hydro assist does not fix the problems associated with spring sway. Spring sway is not death wobble, very similar feeling but different problems. What you are describing is spring sway causing vehicle to sway back and forth not actual death wobble of the front tires. The truck swaying back and...
