I have to defend them, most of the post i read from Chris or Bill actually have meaning, some times they dick around, but Bill and Chris are good mods!

But be warned Chris can be kinda if you know what i mean

Good deal, didn't know that about the older 4l80's and I know if you don't run that extended fitting on the newer ones, you'll have problems. Looking forward to the seeing the upgraded fuel setup

 

....so what about the 4 barrel tb?

 

Once you fill the master cylinder with fluid start pumping the brake pedal once and while when you are working on the truck. I don't know if I messed up by not bench bleeding the master cylinder, but mine took a long time to get the air out up top. Once that air was gone bleeding the lines was quick.

 

Looking good Chris! This might be just what your truck needs to push it that extra little bit into the 10's.

 

I did bench bleed the master, so hopefully I'll be good to go.

Thanks Todd How's your truck doing? Did you ever get it back from paint jail?




Got the shocks and bumpstops put in tonight.

My trimmed fronts vs new fronts


Trimmed rears vs new rears (don't mind the ugly guy in the background)


Rear stuff installed



Front stuff installed (this is not final ride height since I'm missing about 500 lbs under the hood)

 

Looks good chris, Oh and did you get to use the airbags, or was the truck broke? How do you like them?

Dustin

 

Looks good bro!

 

I got to use them for a few days....seems like they will work well. The smoothed out the ride a lot in the rear, but I never got a chance to load the back end up and see how they do. I'm looking forward to hooking up the boat and towing with the bags.

BTW, I'm deleting the BS posts

 

Obviously I can't tell how soft those bump stops are, but you are riding pretty close to them. If they are too firm, I'm running belltech 4920 foam bump stops front and rear and love them. Soft and squishy with no hard bottoming out, just a progressive stop. Just an idea. Also you could get rid of that bump stop perch for some more travel. Looking good, outta be up in no time!
