    C6 to zf5 speed swap complete!

    I actually had a donor truck right next to it. So I didn't need much of anything. Some rtv I think is about it

    C6 to zf5 speed swap complete!

    I like it, it took probably 12 to 14 solid hours of work. Maybe more but that was dismantling both trucks and putting one transmission in. If we had a gopher and all the right tools, second time around it could be around 8 hours I bet

    Amazing how there are comments on other things and not others. Must not have had enough pictures

    C6 to zf5 speed swap complete!

    With the help of another member on oil burners, I got the swap done. Now I just have to get the front axle swapped in. I gotta say we fought the turbos and the pedal assembly the most. I'm not sure if they were different generation Banks turbos or just the fact that one was for an auto and one...

    4x4 swap question

    Hoping to have next week off. Having second thoughts on the swap. I feel like I'm capable I can do it, but I have my doubts. The swap truck is basically a parts truck even though it just needs a different motor to be road ready. The 2wd truck might need head gaskets. In one way I wish I could...

    Ok I'm new to this, is there something I unhook off my c6 and attach it to my zf5?

    4x4 swap question

    Ok. The donor truck doesn't work when parked so maybe I don't have the cable driven Speedo on that one. Not sure yet

    4x4 swap question

    I know they make a trans Jack. I don't have one obviously. I can try to rent one I was just looking at my options.

    4x4 swap question

    Are there any special tools I will need? I'm hoping to get labor day week off, meaning I should have ample time to do swap I hope. Diesel crawler, was that two 8 hour days that it took you or more like 2 FULL days. As far as moving stuff around like the transmission, I will have a floor Jack...

    4x4 swap question

    I'm swapping to 4x4 because I only need one ccdrw. One is enough to maintain. I'd rather put all my marbles in one. I'll do the 4x4 swap over the body swap because I have everything right there and a perfect reference right beside it. I'm still not going to drive it much in the winter...

    4x4 swap question

    Ok, yeah I was wondering if it was my phone or something that I couldn't see the photos. What should I start with first diesel crawler? I think I can figure out pulling and replacing and matching holes and drilling I just need a starting point

    Overheating

    Ok, any tips for doing head gaskets? I did some for the first time a few years ago and it was a total bear. I damn near would take it to my local shop if I had to do it again. I'm sure it would be $1500 for that though

    Overheating

    My 85 has been overheating a lot. It goes through a pile of coolant and I'm not sure if it's mostly leaking in the ground or going out the tail pipe. I'll fill it up anytime drive it and hour and it will start to overheat. I stop and it's 1 to 2 gallons low. Good pressure on the system. It...

    4x4 swap question

    Does anyone know if the bolt holes are there or if there will be doing on the frame. What should I start with first. I have a 5 speed to swap in and t case as well to put in. Axle first or pedal assembly or x mission first? What would make it easiest? Should I pull everything out of the rust...

    4x4 swap question

    How long would you guess to swap 4x4 to the other truck if they are side by side

    4x4 swap question

    Is it that much harder to swap 4x4. I'd swap cabs but the black truck doesn't run. Frost plugs blew out after a head gasket blow out.

    4x4 swap question

    I haven't posted in quite some time. I have 2 85 cc drw 6.9s. both were automatic 2wd. One was swapped to a 4x4 5 speed before I got it. That one is Rusty and my new one is rust free. I have both sitting side by side in my driveway. I want to swap the good truck to 4x4. It should basically be...

    Pulling motor on 6.9

    Never pulled a motor before, but I'm not totally a dummy. What's the easiest way to do it and any special tools I need?

    On way home, injector line broke in half!

    Hey sorry for the late reply I did end up getting back home late last night with a lot of diesel fuel all over everywhere. I had the clamps off because I swapped out injection pump and lines and I never put them back on because I didn't think they were necessary. I know now that they are...

    On way home, injector line broke in half!

    The clamps that hold the lines apart? I don't think I put them back on
