list of questions... again...
okay....
my axles are off an 84 burban 3/4T (diesel ...) corp 10 front 14bS rear... my truck originally was a 305 sbc 1/2T with dual corp 10's.... ive got my 9in lift and 37's and the low arse diesel gears... now the question i have is proportioning valve should i go pull that off a diesel also? why do i ask? because when i go to stop fast.. my 37in tires stop faster the my truck.. and it becomes a skiing event instead of driving... it scares me pretty bad some days... the brakes were alll redone last summer... rotors drums cylinders calipers springs pads and a kiss for good luck.. (kissed it breaking rusted bolts) soo what one should i be using? front axle corp 10.. i shattered the U-joint in my RF i have "new to me" shafts, BUT i need a u joint that can handle me being a little agressive in the mud... i know i should just upgrade the axles.. but im ... welll.. im married to an accountant.. so i dont have permission for a while to do an axle upgrade. sooo what u joints (press in kind) do i need to run that will support my truck? and related to that question.. should i just replace ALL the seals i come across as i go into there?

Re: list of questions... again...
The diesel donor should have hydo-boost brake system.Get all of that.That`s the best power brake system.

Re: list of questions... again...
I know what you mean...I installed bigger brakes from a F350 into my F150 and when I hit the brakes on the highway those suckers would lock up quick. Needless to say i'm gonna be looking for an adjustable proportioning valve as well.
