Good greif that looks brand new

How much did the paint cost?

The way i made mine was buy a stock 1993 hose, cut it up and use only the steel tubing portion, flare brake line fitting on it, and had a custom hydraulic hose that went from inverted double flare at the steel line to bubble at the 86 master cylinder. Very similar to southdave except i used an...

These tubes are installed on 6.2s that had a manual trans behind them. Its intention was to keep oil and fuel from getting on the clutch assembly. I had to custom make one for mine when i went to an nv4500

I agree, if i could come up on a 700r4 xmember. I would use that. And if i do come up on one im going to use it. But for now i got what i got. Good to know you broke one you built though.

Drive to alabama and ill swap you my 1008 bed!

Just FYI. I just did this swap. Since i am lifted i cant speak to the driveline issues. But i can tell you this. The 208 bolts up. The th400 and the nv4500 are roughly the same length. You can use your stock crossmember, all you have to do is use 2" square tubing and make a 4" tall mount with...

Well after a lot of headaches and pulling this transmission about 8 times, i found that my issue was not in the transmission, but was being caused by the rear driveshaft vibrating because of the severe driveshaft angle from the lift. I built a CV driveshaft and had it balenced and all my...

Is this truck lifted? If so, how much? If it is lifted, I know exactly what it is. I just had this issue and chased everything.

Looks sharp man!

To answer your questions line by line. parts needed (used) nv4500 (np205 or 208? could the stock 205 be used? What year 4500 is most desirable and does gas or diesel matter?) Use the stock 208. Bolts up all appropriate gear selection sticks and 4x4 stick...if its not included with trans...

Just did this swap on my 86 m1008. Get a hydro clutch pedal setup. Simple swap out/in. Stock driveshafts fit fine, even with my 6 inch lift. 1008s use the NP208, and it directly bolts to the nv4500. I did have to make a transmission mount spacer that was 4 inches tall, but no big deal, used 2x2...

I will happily replace 5 dollar bushings every couple thousand miles to keep from having death wobble due to larger tires.

Engineers dont always get it right. I know that because I am one. The springless setup works just fine, ive got a couple thousand miles on mine, and i check them religiously. What the springless kit doesnt allow for is any vertical movement of the outer spindle assembly. There is a reason why...

Just one place you can buy em. https://www.wfoconcepts.com/pr/Dana-60-Kingpin-adjustable-springless-Cap-with-hardware/3163/3948/4277

Man, get springless caps. Best thing i ever bought.

Sounds to me like you have a marker light out. Same thing happened to me.

Rebuild kit for an NV4500. Doing the build this weekend. Great service from Midwest Transmission Center in Minn.

No problem folks. Mine are still looking and functioning great after several months in the sun

The pedals are a hydraulic clutch pedal set from a 1985+ Pickup, Blazer, or Suburban and directly bolt into these trucks save having to drill two holes for the clutch master cylinder, but even then there are dimples in the firewall for where to drill the holes. The real hurdle I had to jump was...
