I didn't know that 93-95 NV4500s have a different size bearing retainer & belhousing index hole than the 96-up. The bolt pattern on the front of the trans is different also. AND--all have the slave cyl on the passenger side.

One way to use a 4500 with either a standard GM cast iron mechanical clutch fork or hydrulic slave, and have it on the left side is with an Advance Adapter bell: http://www.advanceadapters.com/produ...llhousing-kit/

All that dough pretty well cinches the NV3500 in my book. I assume the NV3500 slave cyl is on the left side, huh?

Rusbuilt · 02-27-2013, 01:47 PM

I think it depends on what year, I've seen them on both sides. It really doesn't matter to me though because I plan to run the hydraulic slave and I'll just run my lines.

**jkeating1** · 02-27-2013, 02:38 PM

That--and it may be driven by 2WD/4WD undercarriage, because of the shaft on the left

Rusbuilt · 03-01-2013, 05:55 PM

I think the big holes have a cool look.

Bryan do you mean 10 hole or 10 lug?

I like this website:
http://www.tnwheelandtire.com/site/769454/page/923583

I also like their wheel adapters better than the ones you posted.
They are front and rear specific.

Cool.
I see the used 22.5's on Craigslist, but people want crazy prices for them around here.

They are off of a motorhome. I'm over in your old neck of the woods for the day. They are at board member Woodridge's place up in Maynardville. I'll see if I can get a pic.

**lolife99** · 03-02-2013, 06:57 PM

Cool.
I know you wanted the 7.5" version,... but a 265/35-22 tire, will fit better on a 8.5" wide wheel.

Rusbuilt · 03-02-2013, 09:40 PM

Thats true, I had considered my tire height but not the width.

ThreeQtr · 03-03-2013, 09:52 AM

Not to keep posting pics of other trucks, but maybe some one with photoshop could lower this to get a better idea of the look your after. At least its blue.

Rusbuilt · 03-03-2013, 11:57 PM

I like that truck, I've seen a few pics of it on here!

**jkeating1** · 03-04-2013, 12:21 AM

thats an interesting photo---the gas filler neck is in the shot, indicating the pic is reversed, yet the "pods" logo is not reversed.

ThreeQtr · 03-04-2013, 07:49 AM

You noticed, I did reverse it (forget why) and the pods sign. I also used the trees to cover a house being built in the background. But I only have Paint, which takes alot to piece the wheels together. As far as I know it's the only way to get a lowered look with Paint (tucking them up into the wheelwells).

JRANGER · 03-04-2013, 10:45 AM

Here ya go...Not perfect but

Rusbuilt · 03-04-2013, 04:40 PM

Bags all the way! I can't wait!

5150 · 03-07-2013, 07:58 PM

Here you go Rus, sorry for the delay 18x6's

JRANGER · 03-07-2013, 08:13 PM

I like the rims rus got better then those lol

Rusbuilt · 03-07-2013, 10:46 PM

Those are still cool! I've not seen 18" ten lug wheels before.
