I want to acknowledge the amount of information and knowledge shared on this site. I don't post much, just research, but I really appreciate the teamwork shown on this site. Unity reminds me of the 24yrs I spent in the USA. "One team one fight"

Bomp · 04-09-2016, 02:32 AM

Welcome, like your progress,
Sub'd

Grizz1963 · 04-09-2016, 03:18 AM

Welcome.

You are right, my build certainly is a team effort too.

Like your progress so far.

notsolo · 04-09-2016, 07:35 AM

Great progress, what are your plans for the EFI wiring?

Hop · 04-09-2016, 11:07 PM

Appreciate the encouragement. Hope to be up and running next month.

Notsolo- I had the original harness modified as a standalone, reprogramed the PROM, eliminated all emission no O2 sensors, removed VATS

step65 · 04-09-2016, 10:24 AM

Looks great you are making fast work of it.

namloc · 04-10-2016, 12:32 AM

Looking good! Always loved how the TPIs look. I used to run one in mine, so feel free to reach out if you run into any issues. Though with your hands on, you're likely more informed than I am at this point

Hop · 07-29-2016, 02:08 PM

I just wanted to give an update on progress. New wiring harness complete CPP, 5 way tilt with sport wheel. Exhaust headers w/Jones Full Boar dumped at axle. Wheel and Tires US Mag U111 - 18x8 -18x9.5. Having problems with the paint color. Any ideas

**aerotruk63** · 07-29-2016, 02:21 PM

Celebrate it's 64 heritage with 529 Grey Green Metallic or 524 Copper Tone Metallic. Two 64 exclusive colors.

Hop · 07-29-2016, 02:49 PM

Thanks, I like both colors as I'm having a hard time to compliment the wheels on the truck.

CES2749 · 08-12-2016, 10:46 AM

Where did you get your 5 lug conversion for the rear end and was it simple to install? I'm debating on how to covert my rear end which is also a 64.

notsolo · 08-12-2016, 02:02 PM

Pick a couple colors you like and ask for a Photoshop with your wheels. Truck is looking great BTW.

Thanks for the compliment. I will do that. Should be finished with it to get inspected on Saturday. Then I will get good pics and post.

The axle are from Yukon Gear and Axle. Length (30 -3/4). Simple to put in. Make sure you measure from tip of shaft to the flange to get a correct measurement. You can get them form CPP, Summit etc. any vendor.

Thanks. Was yours 17 spline or 30 spline axles? I'm trying to see if I can change axles without changing spider gears to 30 spline.
