Yes I can do the 700r4 swap for you. Cost depends on a lot of factors as far as parts are concerned. I highly recommend a new torque converter when doing the swap, other than that all the other parts can be used. Swaps cost right around $1500-1800 give or take, depending on how much the used...

Got the manifold on, that was a pain in the butt! Had to jack up the motor, still wasn't much room to work with. Going to try and put the turbo down pipe between the engine and frame rail. I see a lot of people ran the exhaust on the outside of frame rail, but I don't want to have to do...

Turbo 400 transmission cracked due to faulty trans bushing mounts. So going to install a 700r4 overdrive trans, and add a turbo to the 6.2L diesel. Also the inner fender and battery tray are very rusty, so I am going to replace those as well.

I will be doing another 700r4 install on Friday, your more than welcome to come up and check it out.

Your welcome! As for pulling a trailer, mine doesn't downshift on level ground or small hills. Only down shifts on steep hills. I had a load of wood last year, truck and trailer grossed 13,000 lbs. Truck rarely downshifted at 55mph. A very low stall torque convertor will help keep it from...

I can make you one, haven't had much time to make any right now. To be honest, it has been on the back burner for a long time. Haven't had much time to mess around with it. But if you can't find one let me know.

There are several companies out there that sell wedge blocks that go between the axle and spring (these are not lift blocks), to achieve somewhat of a correct geometry. I had an 8 inch skyjacker all spring lift on another one of my trucks, it had 4 degree wedges that where attached to the...

Kennedy diesel sells the marine pumps, but they are not cheap! http://www.kennedydiesel.com/detail.cfm?ID=26

Yup, already covered all those bases. No one was injured, so nothing to claim there. I have several other vehicles, so can't claim a vehicle loss. Insurance knows I have several vehicles since they are all insured through them. I have my own business, so can't claim lost wages or income and...

Blue book is $1725 for low retail, $4150 for average retail, and $6875 for high retail. As for who is paying, well that is where Michigan gets interesting. Michigan has no-fault insurance, so the other driver is not financially responsible, just legally responsible. My insurance will be...

No frame damage, just sheet metal. had a few dents when I bought it, now there just a lot bigger. right side of truck hit a patch of sumac trees no bigger around than a tennis ball. Driver side was hit by other vehicle. We where both going same direction and he decided to change lanes...

Just normal insurance, it goes by blue book. My agent said after its fixed they might be willing to do appraised value so it has more coverage.

New lift pump????

I was involved in an accident with my cucv (M1008), wasn't at fault. Older man merged into me and shoved me off the road. Just cosmetic damage, but still not to happy......................Oh well poop happens. So I am looking for 2 doors (driver and passenger), both front fenders, and both...

Trans swap is cheaper. I could come get the truck and do the swap for you. There would be a pickup and delivery charge, but if the shop your working with doesn't know what they are doing it might cost you more for them to do it, then to have me come pick it up swap it then deliver it back to...

It's not my truck, did all the work for another member. Seemed to run great when I had it.

Most readers know that synthetic motor oils typically perform better than conventional motor oils in providing protection for your vehicle, but they might know why. What’s the real difference between synthetic and conventional oil? Pretty much everything.Conventional and synthetic oils begin...

I had not owned a civi vehicle for 5 years, until I bought my 87 K30 4 door dually back in 2013. I sold all my newer vehicles in 2008 and went back to the good old chevy, but took it one step further and got a K30 m1008. I wanted a vehicle with no computer, easy to work on, inexpensive parts...

Skinny what is the part number on the filter head, I was on stanadyne page and saw several fm 100 heads with different part numbers.

Get the IP rebuilt or get a new one, we probably also have a week IP and the new injectors are showing that. Or loosen the IP and rotate it, see if it clears the smoke up and stops the rough idle.
