I am currently running them on my 92 K1500 in a 285 70 17. They have great all around traction (haven't tested in Ice/Snow yet) they are quiet for an MT (quieter than by Duratracs were by far). They seem to have good on and off-road manners, traction in sand and mud were excellent, rock were...

Going red Durabak with UV protectant for the truck, aside from inside the bed and possibly along the bottom being black.

1992 Chevy K1500 ECSB 5.7 NV4500/NP241. Building this up as a Temp overlanding rig while I work on my 89 Suburban V2500. This truck started out in rough shape, but I took it on a trade deal. Replaced the front worn our seats with buckets and console from a 99 suburban (GMT400), replaced the...

Well things change! I acquired a 2004 escalade that had been in a wreck. 6.0 LQ9 will be going into the 89 sub.

Well it looks like I will be building the 92 and the 74. Selling the sub (Gotta have the bed). Ill be starting a build thread shortly. Will be doing an ls swap on the 92, eventually, and started looking for the front diff I need.

Acquired 3 diff vehicles over the last few months. 89 suburban 2500 (350 TH400), 02 k1500 eclb (350 NV4500), and 74 k20 lb (350 TH350). Was originally leaning toward the sub, but we have been looking at the cab overs for off road and so am reconsidering. Thinking of building the 92 with SAS VS...

Hey Everyone. Been using my 2007 tundra Crewmax for Expo. duty for about a year, pretty basic leveling kit and shell. I have been toying with the idea of building my 1999 (GMT400)Chevy 1 ton crew cab into my main expo rig and still DD the Tundra. My wife's 2004 Tahoe has 236k miles and its time...

I've been looking at all the different builds. I think I've decided to build the 99 and leave my tundra as my dda vehicle. I have a leveling kit on it now. Not a massive build, but I'd like the 99 to have 34-37 tires and it's already got 14bff rear, and a stout drive train.

No opinion anyone. I have really been going back and forth between the two.

I put this in fullsize forum also but.....Ok so I have been into building crawlers etc for awhile and have decided to build and expedition rig. Dont really want to buy a truck just for the build and have a couple options. I do not need it to fit tight trails etc, as I have a 70 FJ40 for that. I...

Ok so I have been into building crawlers etc for awhile and have decided to build and expedition rig. Dont really want to buy a truck just for the build and have a couple options. I do not need it to fit tight trails etc, as I have a 70 FJ40 for that. I have two vehicles to choose from, a 1999...
