Agreed....it looks like we now have to pay $99 per year to be allowed to share our pics. This is going to affect millions or people and every forum on the planet.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

on GMT400, the admin was able to somehow get the photos to link up again. don't know any details but i know there's a way. if someone will notify this admin, i can search and get them in touch.
looks like PB is trying to hold our pics hostage for money. we need special ops to go in.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Yeah it's ridiculous! I need to find another image hosting site. Even though I haven't touched truck much. Been real busy getting our little side plasma cut business going but I will return to it very soon!

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

I am torn with what to do with this thread... Photobucket really screwed us with that crap.

Should I continue on or what?

Here are some updates. 4WD conversion is damn near complete on all of our cutbros parts finally. I am ready to get back working towards getting this thing on the road!

EDIT: NO CLUE WHY THEY ARE SO BIG FOLKS!

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

I agree, keep it going. I have been using Google Drive with good luck on Wranglerforum, but on here it makes images huge just like yours.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Some new pictures.


Smoked out the entire shop within a few seconds of it running.


As you can see I have a leak and it appears to be coming from the fuel filter housing. Damn thing.


Here you can see also what I am having issues with a thermostat crossover. I have the original dual tsat from the 96 that won't clear the mechanical linkage and the idle adjuster and the 83 single tstat xover that clears that but ends up sitting right where the ac compressor should go.


Also a picture of the 06 Navistar engine I am due to go pick up.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

I found the navistar for sale pretty close by at a price I just can't ignore. It will be my back up for this 6.5 considing I have already found a hair line crack in one of the mains.

Cool about the find. Not so cool about the crack. It's an NA motor then?

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Yeah I have always known my 96 6.5 had the hair line crack but gonna run it until it dies I guess.

The seller said it was NA setup that was going to be put into a suburban. I am not entirely sure what that means. I don't know that much about them. I just know it has the better design so would be better suited to build up to replace the one I am currently running.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

82GMCK.. guess what issues I am running into...

Also! Screw (pun intended) that stock 6.5 FFM. I have a duramax one on the way!

Any help or more insight on the plastic intake box meeting the cast air intake box of the banks setup? I remember you said it was a pain.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Stripping it down for paint! I moved everything but the cab and frame to my painters place last night. Super excited about the color change. We are stripping it completely down for the recolor.

I am also removing the dash to replace with one that hasn't been cut up and beat on, so that should be interesting.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

I am a simple man, I love black. So black it is. Ive asked him to get some GM/chevy black and give it like 4 coats of clear.

Cool. I do love the way black looks.
I don’t love trying to keep it clean.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Same. I have a black 2010 CTS-V and I love it to death! I just need a fully enclosed garage for it, otherwise if I want to drive it I have to wash it like 2x a week. However, I do need to do a ceramic coat on it and that would probably help some.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Anyone know of a place that sells a weatherstripping kit? I need the front windshield, back glass, all 4 doors weather stripping that goes on the body as well as the weather stripping for the door glass. I see plenty of places that sell it bit by bit or a small kit of this and so on.

Re: Let's Build A 1 Ton Crew Cab 4x4

Working on my front xmember for the 4wd conversion so I can incorporate a steering gear box brace and be able to attach the factory 4wd swaybar. Also venturing into making a clearance transmission crossmember. The one pictured is for 1/2 & 3/4 tons but I plan to make a 1 ton version that could go along with the 4wd conversion stuff.

Started tinting some of my glass and got the 1 ton style crossmember designed and made to put on my truck.

Test fitting the adjustable sway bar links here.

Also finally got a teaser picture from my painter. I am loving it.
