That's way too steep. Any more than $700 for a one-off 1-piece is too much. If you re-use the OEM slip yoke and pinion flange, it should bring the cost down even lower. Those are a couple of expensive parts.

They'll hold 450 HP with no problem. The most I've seen through one so far on a customer's truck has been 587 HP. That's on a 6" lift (using a 1" spacer on the pinion flange) and 37's being turned by a 6. 7.

This was on a truck that had 6" lift blocks on the back, even after I told him that 4" was the most you can go with the 1-piece without using a spacer. 6" usually requires a spacer (if it's a true 6 and not 6 in the front, 4 in the rear) and 8" lifts always require a spacer. The truck had 22...

There's what works and there's what's right. Anybody that says they can "steady hand" . 010" with an angle grinder isn't touching my truck. Ever seen what happens when someone goes, "Yeah, that'll be okay..... " even after you tell them it's NOT okay? Don't say I didn't warn ya.

Folks, You can use the Spicer or Precision u-joints in the AAM shafts, but you have to machine . 010 off the end caps to get them to fit correctly, otherwise they bind and you'll be shortening the life. Otherwise, you'll have a tough time getting the circlips to seat fully, if at all. If...

I'm sure it's feasible, shouldn't be any more of a problem than a QC/LB 3rd Gen. Let me do some measuring tomorrow... . I have an EC/LB 4X4 at the shop. We just sold it, but it's not getting picked up until this weekend and I need to put on the lift anyways. I can't say we've tried it, but...

Glad ya like it. Same thing that we hear from most folks..... takes longer to get the old one out vs getting the new one in. Grand total of 4 bolts on the pinion flange, put some blue loc-tite on and tighten them to 85 ft/lbs and you're done.

The u-joints are sealed. You can replace them with a Spicer, Precision, or other greaseable joint, but you have to machine . 010" off the end caps for them to fit correctly. The standard Spicer type joints are just slightly too large to fit correctly. If someone gets one here at the...

No problem at all guys. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. You can always reach me on the phone if need be. We did find something interesting out earlier this week. If you have and '03 or '04 with the standard output engine and 10. 5 rear end, the driveshaft it too short...

The big deal is this... ... it's called attention to detail and getting specific answers to specific questions. I handle all the diesel and day to day business, my partner Tom handles gas performance and fabrication and Brian handles chassis and suspension. We each have areas that we...

You're right! You didn't know who I am! You didn't think that I'd see your childish little comments! My only issue in this entire thing is simple... . YOU using MY name in a negative manner. There was no reason for it other than it's the way you do business. I deal with guys like you all the...

You're right, I did hang up on you. I didn't ask for, nor do I want, your apology. Like I said earlier, stop and think for 10 seconds before you say or type something; it causes you less trouble. You would have never had to try and save face if you hadn't called me out in the first...

Oh, by no means do I criticize small business, let's not even go there. My company is 3 people... . all that turn wrenches and can walk the walk, not just talk the talk. Let's not make this some political BS crap. YOU called ME out and you bit off more than you could chew. YOU made...

Yeah, actually it is. 99% of these are directly done, BY ME! In MY SHOP! Using MY EXPERIENCE! DIY Articles Here's another for ya. Read up, ya might learn something... . Where do I start? Notice I posted actual useful information and not some hit stats. Care to make yourself look...

Paying for it doesn't give you copyright permissions, bone head. You truly don't have a clue. If you want to talk copy rights, I'll be more than happy to send your website to DC's regional rep for your area and you can deal with them on it. Why would they take interest in it?..... because...
