    ORD complete lift system for 1986 K30. The build begins. Any help+++

    Response from technician at ORD: I can add the extended shock mounts but I do not think you would see much benefit from them based on your intended use and application. The extended mounts are most beneficial for lower lift heights where the shock is the travel limiter of the spring, since you...

    Okay I got delayed on the ORD lift system order but I am finally pulling the trigger this month. Money is in hand now and the LS 6.0 is at the shop. I'm going to call ORD to help me nail down the parts for the build but if y'all know what to get it sure would help. What I think I know is I'm...

    ORD complete lift system for 1986 K30. The build begins. Any help+++

    Looked thru every place I can find. Nothing about keeping stock rear springs and doing max lift with shackle flip + whatever else can be done in the rear for lift etc. Absoulutly no body lift though. Then setting up front end with correct spring height and best steering correction option. I plan...

    M1008 Wire nest

    Thanks. Yes it's a 454 now but probably putting a 8100 or 6.2LS in it. I didn't think anyone understood I wanted to go with a civilian set up and add A/C with Dakota gauges but y'all nailed it. I'm keeping the black out lights and running off a toggle switch. If anyone needs the cluster or...

    Has anyone used the painless performance wiring harness to re-wire the whole truck? Thanks

    Best A/C option for M1008 with a 454.

    So is this probably the cheapest way to add A/C instead of buying a vintage air kit? Getting the under dash and firewall parts out of a bone yard and running new A/C lines to whatever compressor I mount? Has any one had success with this? I found the underdash stuff and firewall local already...

    M1008 Wire nest

    Just started getting into cleaning up all the wiring splicing over the years and it is a mess. Got the dash pad and gauge panel off. Engine compartment is terrible. It has got a 454 motor so no 24v is needed. Should I try and repair the existing harness's and fuse panel or replace the fuse panel...
