Wow impressive knowledge brother. Do you like the l96 2500 gmt 900 rigs?
@@GreaseMonkGarage yes i do
Do you have to use both sensors on the transfers case swapping a truck that was 2wd with a 4l60 or 4l80?
@@heathcarr1105 if you want it to not go into limp mode in 4Lo you have to wire up the low range Switch
How did you end up wiring the manual t-case? I want to do the same to my 02 2500hd. I see that the oem manual t-case harness attaches to the c153, the t-case, the front diff, and has a ground. What I'm wondering is if the bcm needs to be reflashed to remove the tccm or if you can just unplug it and be fine. Want to make sure I don't get any service 4wd messages in the message center.
I'd love to have one like this one but in full 4 door configuration and with LS 6.0 V8 & 4L80 & Atlas transfer case & coilover suspension, not leafsprings
I’m surprise it has no major rust that generation is famous for rusting more so here in the northeast.
No idea this was 4wheel hinself LOL awesome man, you should upload the single cab vids on here
Ok now, you make this so easy to do that I already want to start ordering parts.... But tell me one thing, is there a way this system can be done with a 2001 express van 3500 front frame?
Great video
That's an awesome build! Ole girl needs an oil bath to keep it rust free
Have been having issues finding aftermarket parts for mine. Its a 2000 chevy 2500 Silverado extended cab 3-door 4x4 long bed 4-speed auto. Its was my grandpas and i got when he past he just used it as a tow rig from cheyenne, wyo up to Juliet(7 hour drive) so most miles are are towing highway. Im really tryna build it into looking like a work truck but pushing that motor all the way. Want it to be a real sleeper. But just cant seem to find the aftermarket support and im pretty sure its a me issue have been asking multiple other creators but just have gotten and answer if you of any websites i can go and look at or any info on the fact of if the 2003-2007 years have the same undercarriage that would be very appreciated. Just wanna make this think look and function as a work horse but also drive like an off-road track horse.
Can you do spring under axle so that it's not lifted?
You can but u will need more arch in the spring for everything to fit. Look up shop speed house on fb they have done clean spring under builds
Did you flash the tcm to be able to take 4 low?
Yes
How does it ride and drive?
Damn I would still buy that truck if it was for sale that thing is a beauty
Solid axle swap it ufo makes a kit for it you’ll never get them factory ifs to preform the way you want
What transfer case did you use
Keep these videos going, nice detail!
I don't mind 20 min of footage even in parts😂😂😂
I would love more details about the axles abs for your build. This video is very informative and visually informative that helps me source an study this future project I'm thinking about doing for my 03 2500hd
Couple questions, what thickness are the frame plates covering all the ifs stuff? And what length leaf springs did you use in the front?
Awesome video. I was literally just wondering about that sensor on the transfer case and what it does. Thank you
I have 03 1 ton dually want a SAS but idk what axle
Should have gone front coil overs
Whats the best axle i got a ton of dodge front qxles
Thank you for showing the inside. I have manual 4x4 shift. An I don't have the full center console. But I have been looking to put one in my truck. I never thought about the shifter being in the way till watching this video.
These trucks should come with solid front axles. Gm should be ashamed for these piece of shit things they try to pawn off on us as trucks. How embarrassing.
Hello over there from deep down south Texas. I have a 2004 Yukon XL 2500 with the 8.1ltr gas engine. I'm not going to build the Yukon 2500 to wheel but rather it's my tow rig for my Dodge wheeling rig. I'm only wanting to keep the tire size of the Yukon at about 32"-33"(285)size. Just a tire size a little more then the stock 235/75-16's on a wider 9" rim for stability. It's about $3200 for a 4inch Cognito suspension kit for the Yukon 2500. Plus about $800 to replace my CV shaft's and wheel bearing's. Iv'e been tossing up the idea about just doing it right and swapping in a Ford SuperDuty axle 3inch lift kit from WFO with there SAS kit which for the truck's are on sale for $2800.. Problem is they only list these kit's for the 2500 HD truck's though. So I emailed WFO and this is there response.... "We have never test fit this in house but I have had customer purchase the kit for there applications with little to no feedback. One guy for sure has one out in TX some where Iv'e seen pictures of. Yes everything "SHOULD" work but its not something I can tell you if there is a small difference or not". I haven't found any application's online with some for sure video's on solid axle swapping a Yukon XL. So what do you think. Are the IFS lift's dependable enough for a small lift and will keep my tires from wearing funny?? Currently running a 2" key lift. Outside edges of the tires are wearing first.
Whats up man, so the first question here is if an SAS is worth it for a 33” tire and no heavy wheeling. I guess it depends. To me, yes. I would rather have the solid axle under the truck that has less wear points than the factory IFS setup. Money wise, if you manage to be around the same price with parts, the sas will still be more labor. Now if it will work, the answer is yes. 2500/3500 suburbans from 2000 and up all have the same frames. And from the rear doors forward they are the same frames as 01-10 gm 2500hd/3500 trucks, so all these lift kits and things out there for 01-10 hd trucks will fit 2500 suburbans newer than 2000. I think im actually going to do a video about this
Repping NY! Clean ass truck brotha!
Hey I’m interested in getting my 05 sierra 2500 single cab Duramax converted to 4wd. How much would this cost. The truck is completely rust free southern truck. I’m also located in NY
Theres a few different ways to do it. Its not cheap. Figure 10k in parts including wheels and tires
I would do it for you.
Np205 install the speed sensor before the tease no limp mode and you get low range
Leaf springs don't look right .I order some offroad design but for the Duramax
They work just fine.
Blowing my mind how many people commenting on these springs. You can definitely tell how many people don't know what an oem set of square body springs look like.
Did the same on my 07 GMC crew cab long bed
Now you can ride in comfort and reliability, haul anything, and rock crawl. (If you wanted) . My favorite trucks are SAS cat eye duramax. Even better with the extended cab short bed
My only real complaint about the leaf spring SAS trucks is how tall they sit. But they are more budget friendly than the radius arm setups unless you pay out the hind end for a 78/79 Ford Dana 60.
What thickness is the metal they use for the brackets? 3/16, 1/4? Looks like some beefy brackets.
I believe 1/4 inch plate.
Where did you get parts for front transfer case output shaft and bolt on yoke, and part # if available
Allstate gear or torqueking4x4 I believe
How did you setup the bumpstops? Nice job.
Thanks man. i bought wfo bump stops and welded them to the frame over the leaf spring u bolt plate, which i extended outwards by welding another plate to it so that the bump stop will hit.
@@1999samtheman Thanks alot for the reply.
For future reference, always leave the spring eye and shackle eye bolts loose until you set the truck on them. Then tighten them.
Hey man I did a SAS on my 08 gmc duramax dually and love it everything from wfo except my front axle that came from a wrecked 2019 super duty which is a Dana super 60 that has 1550 steering u-joints and a 10" ring gear 35 inner and outer axle shafts 3.5" axle tubes with 1/2" wall👍🏿🤙🏿this is how all of gm HD trucks should have not IFS junk
Yea wfo has really nice stuff. I plan on doing their 3” kit with a super 60 on one of my other trucks.
Guess he didn't do any of this huh
I did all of it actually. I uploaded a video on another truck i built as well. Ill post an update on this one when i have some time
What t-case did you go with? Divorced?
No its a married gm np241 converted to 29 spline from a dodge np241. If you watch i go into detail on it.
@@1999samtheman just wondering. I have a 2wd 2009 1500. Could I get a dodge 6 lug low pinion solid axle with whatever I need for the front, then just get a divorced t-case and mount it with all the driveshafts and be done?
how much do you charge? i have a 2004 duramax i would like to do this too im in new york too
It depends. Theres a few different ways to go about it so we would have to get a rough parts list figured out. You can message me @4_wheel_innovations on ig.
Why are the leafs flat? Aren’t they supposed to be more like a blown out U?
No not always.
Why are the leafs flat? Aren’t they supposed to be more like a blown out U?
Flat or just barley inverted leafs are better for ride quality. If a leaf spring is a u shape it’s usually because its a lift spring or made to have more of a load on it frequently. If you look at factory square body trucks you can see up front they are “flat” from the factory.
3 link would’ve been better.
Any clearance issues with the exhaust on the passenger side rear spring hanger? Looking at doing a SAS on my duramax. Love the videos man.
Yes! Dude. Of course right after I uploaded the video i found the picture in my camera roll of the exhaust mod i had to do. I forgot to put it in. If you add me on ig ill dm it to you. It was very simple. Basically just had to take about 3/4 of an inch out of the downward section of the pipe right after the turbo downpipe. U can access the clamp through the passenger wheel well.
Can’t seem to find ya on there. What’s your handle?
@@kenanshaw246 @4_wheel_innovations
What pitman arm did you use?
As much as I love stick, I find it to suck off-road, my Rubicon was auto and off-road was almost unstoppable, I like to crawl with 2 feet, jumping off the clutch like my first XJ was a Jerky mess , I was going to convert the Tacoma but just gonna try to beef up the auto instead, I'm really not a fan of jeeps past the 06 TJ / LJ , last real jeeps made , mucho problemos with these new ones , not big on 4 doors either, my friend in 07 was the first 4 Dr JK Rubicon on long Island and we destroyed it at Rausch, unless you go 40s or bigger it likes to get high centered, A Lot and honestly, 4 doors just look a little funny, I had a 2010 JK and it was great but nothing like my 04 Rubicon, one day I'm going to cut and stretch a TJ into a pickup, that will probably be your next project after the taco S.A.S. Can't freaking wait!
I think my taco will be a lot easier to S.A.S. these are pretty computer complicated, nice truck
I'm having a serious problem finding someone to do my solid axle swap on my Toyota Tacoma here in long Island, I have every single part to do it but the shops are telling me it won't be done till next year? And there's only 2 shops even considering it? I don't mind a few months after they get the truck but I can't wait a year , would this be something you would be interested in doing? Please let me know, Sorry to contact you on CZcams I can't freaking remember your Instagram? Please let me know if it's possible?
Its definitely possible, my issue right now is a new shop space. I still have the one in the video but im not the only one in there during the winter so it gets tough to do big projects
Ouch those leafs are toast
Hows that
Stock height square body springs have a negative arch. They're completely fine.
