Ask on the forums at ck5.com. I know a member there, Dremu, converted his C20 crew cab to a dually.
I believe you can just use the front end from a '71 to '87.
To reinstall, just put the wheel on and tighten the nut the same number of turns as it took to take it off (helps to put a mark on the nut/threads...
Yes it is possible. I was thinking of doing this when I converted my truck to diesel since my donor truck was a suburban with a 40 gal tank, but...
Easiest option would be a 700r4. It may require a different t-case and lengthening your driveshafts.
Thanks, I was kinda tired of the stock hub caps i had before the 3/4 ton swap and I've always liked this style. I got the hub caps for $25...
That is with both the lift kit and C20 suspension (the Fabtech kit is the same for both 1/2 and 3/4 tons). One thing I forgot to mention before is...

I see unbroken ones in the junkyard every once in a while, but I'm not sure if its worth trying to replace it with an original if its only a...
If you're talking about a stock chrome bumper from a Suburban or Blazer, I'm pretty sure you will need new brackets. Personally I would keep...
1978K5 - I agree with Pontiac1976 about a bad contact or ground. Did you pull the wiring harness from the back of the cluster? The contacts...
Measure the distance between the spring pads and shock mounts on both axles, and check what size u-joints each axle has. If the pad and shock...
I agree. The easy way would be to buy a 4x4 and swap your body/motor onto it. Using your transmission would require tearing it down and...
Could also be the rollers, if they go bad they will slowly kill the motor too. If you're going to replace the motor, I'd say lube the rollers up...
What did you use to oil the hinges? My brother had the same problem with his '73 Blazer, and spraying it with WD-40 took care of it. And there...
