The Big Brown Truck dropped off some parts today: my narrowed control arms from Porterbuilt and an NOS passenger side rocker to make it a pair. Ordered a core support, inner fenders and cab corners from AMD this week, more parts for when we get started. :metal: Also, took the old girl out to stretch here legs for a bit tonight. :chevy:

Re: Project: Shiro
Looks like some very nice parts. Looking forward to seeing them installed.

Re: Project: Shiro
I'm sure grease couldn't hurt.
I know of one truck that the owner complained about a slight squeak on the bushing. I'm sure adding a grease zerk will prevent this. |

Re: Project: Shiro
Columns and shift-gate question for the C10 gurus; If I use a late model 5.3L/6L80E set up which only uses PRNDM (M for manual mode) will the shift-gate in a factory tilt match up? Were tilts available with the powerglide transmission (PRNDL) option? Seems like a perfect marriage between old and new school. With the 4L60E the shift-gates and the indicator (PRNOD21) never really jived. If this will work I plan to use a factory tilt with the powerglide shift indicator. Thoughts?

Re: Project: Shiro
There is no shift gate in the tilt, it's in the transmission.

One other thing I forgot to mention, depending on where you engine is located in your truck, you may need to order a longer shift rod from LOKAR. I had to use a long one on all three of my trucks and they are all positioned in the truck differently and have different transmissions. Here's a good video on how to set it up: |

Re: Project: Shiro
Buck,... the track width of your front wheels has bugged me ever since you put them on.
Are you sure they are 5.25" backspace? I just checked on AR's website and they only show a 4.95" BS on the 20x8.5 wheel. http://www.americanracing.com/wheels...8017/techsheet It won't be an issue with your narrowed Porterbuilt a-arms,... but I was trying to see why they stuck out as far as they did. Does your truck have the Modular CPP spindles on it? It appears the rear 20x9.5 wheels have a 5.84" BS,... that's why you were so close to your wheel tubs. |
