My new build thread: Stage 4!
5 Attachment(s)
Yes, here I go. Towed my K5 home and it's setting in the driveway! I am calling this stage 4 because it goes like this: Stock form when I bought it, then a 4" lift with 35's, then 8" lift with 39.5's, now stage 4! It's going to be a major project, but I can't wait to get ripping! Got a few pic's of the extraction this morning.

Bought these years ago, genuine GM. Also, found these in the glove box this weekend when I broke the K5 out of storage. Rear seat hold down brackets and one front seat bracket. Cleaned them up and painted them. Pic's of my new pitman arm for the high steer. All painted up! Can't believe the price of the outer rocker assemblies, now and then, less then $20 back in the day and these still have GM stickers on them!

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
If i were you ;) I would post those NOS rockers on ebay and sell them for about 3-400.00 then get some tri-plus ones for around 60-80...

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Why, cause I'll probably just bash them up anyway! No, these badboy's are going on this K5, didn't save them this long for nothing!

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Just got word from DIY4X, my shackle flip and shackles have been shipped! Should be here soon, sweet! Can't wait!
|
Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Cool to see it underway - I know you've done your homework on Stage 4.
|
Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Thank you YJ! I hope so, ready to do it right. Got a pile of parts here ready to go and the pile is getting bigger everyday. I will have a lot of leftover stuff for sale after I swap to the 1 ton axles and will post stuff asap.Thank's again everybody!

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Glad to see you get going on it!
|
Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Thank's Dusty, I am almost ready to rip and tear this K5 into shape once again!
|
Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Just got word, my rear upper u-bolt plates, and assorted parts have been shipped from DIY4X ! YAAA! Weather permitting, going to try and fire it up this weekend. Fresh battery, some hi-octane fuel, new set of spark plugs, should be a go!
|
Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Sweet - I hope it fires right up for you. Always a blast when parts are on the way. Got to know the office UPS guy real well a few years ago when I was doing lots to the 69 - he was a gearhead so he was always interested in what was coming from Jegs and other places.

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Right on Yukon! My shackle flip kit and 6" cross tied shackles came today. Look real nice, going to clean and paint them asap. I was not sure on the rear shackle size, so I also have a set of 4.5" crosstied shackles coming along with the greasable bolts. That way I will have what I need on hand to set the rear ride height where I want it. Still waiting on my complete rear disc conversion kit for the 14 bolt to arrive. Oh, also got my new Dewalt 4.5" small H.D. angle grinder today, sweet! I will post up some pic's asap.

Re: My new build thread: Stage 4!
Going out right now to clean the shackle flip brackets, and 6" shackles. Prep for paint. Kinda funky looking insignia on the brackets, looks more like 7IY4X, I guess you can't cut out the "D" and make it look right! I will post up pic's later tonight before I spray them.

More pic's of the shackle flip kit after it was painted. Change of plans, can't work on the K5 tomorrow, going to Rocks and Valleys Off-Road Park in Harrison, MI. Taking my camera and riding along, going to take some pictures! It's their first year anniversary of the park and a friend and I are going and taking a few jeeps along to play with! Better pack a lunch! Pic's to follow.
