Re: Any SRW 1 Ton 4x4 guys here?? Pictures??
I never see Russ on here any more.I see he's on CK5 a good bit. I had an '84 K/30 20 or so years ago and sure would like to have another. I have a set of axles handy. I'd like to do what my good friend did with an '85 K1500 High Sierra he bought that was pretty clean. He rebuilt a Dana60 and 14-bolt,put a locker in and disc brakes on the rear,2' lift,285/75-16s on 7" Ford steelies,TH400/NP205,and winch. Now all he needs are 3500 emblems. The only thing I'll do different is I have the 4L80E from my '91 Suburban.
I have an '85 Jimmy I put 3/4t axles in and it was a cinch. 1t axles would be just as easy. It worked out that I didn't have to touch the rear driveshaft because of the larger 14-bolt. I used a conversion u-joint at the rear. This is temporary with the plan being to shorten the Suburban driveshaft.
