that interior is clean! ive never seen a dash pad that nice before! looks like a good solid truck good luck with it!

joe231 · 11-09-2013, 08:24 PM

Sorry guys,

I haven't been on here much to some time.

Haven't done much funn stuff to this either.
I had to replace the head gaskets, joy lol
Then I had problems getting the valve covers to seal.
Ended up leaking oil everywhere. I finally got the leaks fixed and was under the truck cleaning it up. I found out that the front springs have an add-a-leaf.
That explains why it sits higher.
I'm thinking I might ditch the add-a-leaf and swap in an EZ-inch instead. Hopefully it will help the rough ride.

C@rnut001 · 11-09-2013, 09:59 PM

Well, it is good to see you on here Joe. Keep up the work on your trucks and I hope you have a good winter.

joe231 · 11-09-2013, 10:18 PM

Thanks Owen!
You too!
Did you get moved to the valley?

C@rnut001 · 11-10-2013, 05:48 PM

Well, Joe, I moved to the valley and I have already moved back to a village. I finished my PhD in Education and I now live in a small village north of Kotzebue. I had bought an '86 GMC but it blew up this summer and I sold it (it had a 4.3L V6, one of the first in a 3/4 ton truck). I will be looking for another truck this summer. It is great to hear you are still working on your trucks.

joe231 · 11-10-2013, 05:56 PM

Right on
What is the name of the village?

C@rnut001 · 11-10-2013, 07:58 PM

I now live in Kiana. It is beautiful up here and I hope to do some hunting after this year. We have a lot of caribou and moose up here.

joe231 · 11-10-2013, 08:13 PM

Cool

**scotts62** · 12-26-2013, 09:15 AM

joe231 · 12-26-2013, 12:33 PM

Haha
Right on!

joe231 · 07-11-2014, 02:55 AM

I decided to throw some military 37's on my truck

I have to do some trimming. I'm also planing on lifting the truck sooner or later. Just gotta gather up a few more parts....

MTCK · 07-11-2014, 03:07 AM

Looks tough! Just go straight!

joe231 · 07-11-2014, 03:17 AM

Thanks!!
Lol
It actually clears the front fenders lock to lock but it is close in a couple spots.
It will most likely rub with articulation while turning. I'm just gonna trim the lower corners for now.

Hankster · 07-11-2014, 01:42 PM

Looks good with the military tires on it.

COS399 · 07-12-2014, 01:28 AM

I got your twin, except I had to put a 4L80 in mine.

I got a couple of 6.2 engines you can have. It's just getting them up there that would make it cost prohibitive.

joe231 · 07-12-2014, 03:40 AM

Thanks Hank!

Cos
That's cool! Does your truck have a number painted on the roof?
Are you running a 4L80E behind your cummins?

Is love to have those 6.2's lol

No, mine doesn't have a number on the roof. Not sure if it ever did. I know at some point it must have been repainted though. The front end has some light blue showing in places and it is a GMC but has a Chevy grille and had a Chevy tailgate.

As for the 4L80 behind the Cummins, Yes I removed the TH400 and put in the 4L80 since mine is also geared with 4.10 gears in the differentials.

**scotts62** · 07-18-2014, 11:59 AM

Looking good Joe!!!!

joe231 · 07-20-2014, 05:41 PM

Thanks Scott!!

My truck does much better on the beach now with the larger tires, before I had so air down some... Not anymore

y5mgisi · 07-20-2014, 10:47 PM

Looks rugged! I like it!

C@rnut001 · 07-20-2014, 11:19 PM

Man, your truck is looking great. I hope your summer is going well. I am currently trying to buy a K5 Chevy Blazer here in my village (it is a '76 or so and has been sitting a bit). Keep working on your trucks, it is great to see an update.
