    Magnaflow cats vs jegs y pipe

    Link for the Jegs y pipe. I looked on the website and only seemed to find the dual outlet from the stock pipe. I have “duals” I guess because mine doesn’t go into a y. But follows the same bends. And then goes into a dual in muffler and single out. And I want to get rid of my cats.

    Understood! That’s my bad again. When I did a google search on gm rear ends the 8.2 was one of the many gear sizes. And a few reads I saw mentioned that some trucks had a completely round housing with no tabs or “ears” on bottom like the 8.5” so then I just assumed because I googled “gmt400 rear...

    At least it’s an 8.5” 10 bolt. And it’s definitely lookin like it’s due for a new gasket.

    So do they have 4.10 and 4.56 10 bolt rears? If so I need to figure out how to narrow my search to 4x2 6 lug 14 bolt 4.10

    I also told him that car-parts.com that they use to sell parts said he had the 2wd 2500 14 bolt with the 3.73 and 4.10 he wasn’t listening though. But pullapart in my local area has a plethora of 2500s.

    Yeah. He asked me what I was looking for so I told him 2wd 14 bolt. He’s like they never made a 14 bolt for a 2wd. I’m like yeah dude they did. I have a whole forum of people who will show you otherwise. And he’s like 4wd is only 14 bolt 2wd is 10 bolt. And the. Then he got a call and ignored...

    Well. I just left the wrecking yard the guy said they didn’t make a 14 bolt for the 4x2 and he only has 4x4 14 bolt. I tried to explain to him the width on the 4x2 is shorter than the 4x4 and he was very adamant that they only made one width for the 14 bolt. So I’m not sure what to do. I guess...

    I checked out that car-parts.com they have quite a few in my area! 3.73 and 4.10! Closest one(17 miles) has both!

    I tried searching local wrecking yards for the 2wd axle and so far no one has it. Probably going in person would be better. My original plan was to upgrade the diff change the gears and do a disc brake swap cause my rear brakes are completely shot. Thats the main reason it’s sat so long. I’m not...

    It’s from an old square body 4x4.

    So. That guy from Craig’s list just messaged me back. He said $250 for the 14b sf rear. And since it’s going to be getting new ring and pinion new diff and new axles is there anything that I need to worry about as far as the way it looks other than cracks and stuff?
  15. AmericanPatriot100

    Locker for 2wd

    Gotcha. Yeah I’ve been researching the 14b sf and seems like that’s a very common swap in our trucks. So common I have yet to find one for sale let alone at a decent price near me. I found one in a rolling chassis 4x4 plus the cab near me for $150. But I don’t have anywhere to store the frame. I...

    Saw you have tow hooks you still have these? I know this post is old so I actually didn’t go through the whole post. Saw the tow hooks and got excited sorry.

    1996 Chevy C 1500 vortec 5.7 Rotor and Hub question

    How did this turn out? I’m heading the same direction. With swapping the 10b for the 14b. I have 97 ECSB 2wd with the 10b not sure if 8.2 or 8.5. I do have the HD brakes and tow package. Not that that matters much since I’ll be swapping the axles. I’m probably going to do the disc conversion all...

    Why not a full float? I do like the idea of the 4.56. I now know why I didn’t have traction when I drove it in the snow a few years ago. Because I didn’t let it spin long enough to get it to lock the diff. And searching for a used 14 bolt sf or ff is proving to more difficult than I thought. I...

    That’s my bad. I had the RPO wording down as the posi so I just typed that. I did say though “Now which G80 do I have?” So how does that locker work? I watched a YouTube video someone posted of an Anthony3250 who explains the Eaton G80 in his 2wd Silverado. It is the generation after ours so...

    My truck might be 3/4 ton. It has a huge brakes for a 1/2 ton 1500. 7 pin trailer connector and trailer brake. I’ll have to make sure I know what I’m talking about before I say anymore haha.

    You make that sound very enticing! And I think I’ll begin the search. What did a 14 bolt come off of? My buddy has tons of axles at his place. He’s always buying and selling stuff he has no use for.

    Yeah I did the calculations and it was like 4.6? I figured for better acceleration id go 4.88 my goal is to not be cruising at speed at 4k. I’d like to stay around 2k. And if the 4.56 will be a better on the highway that seems like the best way to go. Un

    Man I’m dumb. I was looking up a posi and realized that I do in fact have an open dif. My dad never told me he installed the posi in his truck just that it had a posi rear end so I just assumed my truck was posi and just possibly broken since only one tire spins. I will definitely be installing...
