    SAS discussion on alternative axles

    ORD makes top notch stuff, modifying it will pretty much be cutting them up n starting over. It's tight to begin with on the rear hangers, it's even worse with the wider perch width. WFO makes the kit to use the coils, but it ain't cheap. I guess maybe it an even difference, early stuff is semi...

    Engine advice—How screwed am I (pics)

    Id just get a new motor. Getting a motor hot can warp things, and the necessary machining could easily be the cost of a new(er) motor. Be cheaper n easier in the long run.....

    ISO 1997 5.7 LONG TUBE HEADERS

    I have a set of long tube PaceSetters I bought local off marketplace. When I SAS my Yukon, Im not sure they will work. Plus I might swap the extra 454 I have into it....but, that will be a couple years at this rate...

    88 square body

    IIRC the ECM is a 7747. But the harness between the same body styles are very similar. It's been a while, but think the TPS and IAC plugs are different. But since you have both, can cut the plugs n transfer em over. But I'd think the engine side of the harness is the same.....but who knows.

    1998 push 3 button 1500 stuck in 4low.

    There are really only 2 things that can go bad, the buttons or the motor on the t-case. I'd take the motor off the t-case, and while its off but the key in the on position, cycle the buttons and see if you hear anything. Also try to manually change gears in t-case, just to verify the case is...

    1996 gmc yukon 4x4 8 lug axles

    Cool build. I wanted to do this years ago, never could get a straight answer how to do it. I did it (well eventually will) the easy way and just SAS'd it with 8 lugs...

    Speed limiter on '91 454 SS ?

    My old 89 with the TBI 406 would bury the speedo and then go back around to 45. Well over the 100pmh “limit”

    Synchro NP205 Transfer Twin Stick Mod???

    If the drivetrain is all original, then its not a synchro. As already mentioned, every 1980 4wd got a 205. Auto hubs didn't come out till 81 IIRC, and that is when the synchro 205 came out. Take a pic of the back aluminum cover. Make sure it's clean so we can see lol..

    TBI350 to L31 swap. I'm told close to impossible.

    I almost bought a 92 Blazer that was SAS'd, had a Vortec 350, but was auto 4L80. He took the entire dash, wiring, ECM, engine and trans n swapped it in. Dash n door panels didn't match, but looking back now wouldn't be a big deal.

    Frame damage or design? 92K1500 Long bed

    Trailer hitch or beefy bumper does just as good. The X shaped crossmember is for the spare tire crank thingy.....

    Frame damage or design? 92K1500 Long bed

    i've never notice that!! But i'd say it's OK. Other than lack of crossmembers, the spring hanger is still there, and the spring is still bolted to the axle, so, it aint going anywhere.
