Re: AWD c10
Set the clip on, loosely to check track width, and looks perfect after I fix the camber. I'm planning on using the hydro boost from the van but am short about 2". It's not threaded like the stock one, anyone extended the hydro boost staft? I suppose I could weld it longer but I'm getting tired of welding/fabing and would love bolt on.

Re: AWD c10
Blending your truck to the AWD van is looking really good. Quote from a friend, ( nothing we do is off the shelf ) Hope you find a quick easy fix for the hydro boost.

Anyone done this? Old reservoir/master cylinder on a new hydro boost? I should probably post this in the brake section. |

Re: AWD c10
You probably already know this but .....
As the owner of a couple AWD vehicles; when it gets far enough along that it matters, be sure that all four tires are the exact same rolling diameter and have the same compound. Having different compounds and diameters can cause differential failure.

Re: AWD c10
Thanks for the insight on the tires, I picked up some transport wheels with fairly new tires, all same size.

Re: AWD c10
Cut the passenger side firewall back about 2" so the cab could sit in the proper location, the drivers side fits just fine. Finally figured out my brake lines, just need to bend then up. Set the front clip on and cut the frame off. Not sure how to rotate the pictures, sorry.

Re: AWD c10
Thanks, I can't tell you how many times I've had to take the cab and clip off for measurements, it's getting old! I'm painting the frame and firewall at this time then on to the body mounts. Can't wait to bolt it down for the last time, or so I tell myself.

Re: AWD c10
The driver side firewall fits good but I had to bump the passenger side in.

Re: AWD c10
Yeah, that's the best. About as much fun as replacing vent window seals...

Re: AWD c10
Almost. Just have to finish the bed and then I’ll be switching over to rear coilovers.
