In the process of ordering an aluminum 4" driveshaft. Had to wait for end of year to get a bonus so I can buy stuff lol.

Upgrading to 1350 joints at the same time so I'll be swapping out the pinion yoke. Going to do a crush sleeve eliminator too.

I'm also going to be ordering the front end coil over stuff. I'll probably get the truck up on the 4l80e and make sure it's good before I do the coil overs.

I should have some updates here in a couple of weeks.

Working on redoing vacuum lines as we speak. Hard lines are cool until you have to take **** apart, so I'm going back to soft around the engine. Building brackets for solenoids and maps sensors and putting in a golden eagle vacuum manifold. I'll post some picks soon.

 

I've been following this build for months. Keep it going.

 

Will do. Thanks for tuning in.

 

do you have any good photos on how you ran the down pipe and exhaust? im looking at doing a 4'' back with a bed exit also and trying to decide on how I want to run it.

 

Looks like the only thing I don't have a shot of is the mid pipe between the downpipe. I'll grab one probably next week when i'm putting in the new driveshaft.

from the v-band in the second & third photo to the muffler is 3' maybe of straight pipe. I used a ubolt on the connection there because i ran out of v-bands, the muffler is slip and i wanted to get the **** done so i could do burn outs lol. I do recommend ovaling the pipe around the frame cross braces a least a 1/2" and where the rear pipe passes between the frame and the leaf. It's pretty tight with 4" going through both of those spots.

I do plan on re-working the muffler hangers, v-bands and repositioning the rear pipe out of the muffler. It is a bitch to get ligned up in that hole out the side of the fender. 1/16" off at the downpipe creates an 1" of movement at the side exit lol.

 

Looks amazing man. builds like this is why I love this site

 

Thank you. The truck has been down for a couple months now. I'm getting the itch pretty bad. Might have it back up and running next week.

Assuming the 4l80 is good, i'll probably crank it up to 15~18psi and see what it does.

I'm limited on the 60 lb injectors and a 340 L/hr pump.

 

Man... the fabrication that went into the exhaust on this thing is insane.

 

Thanks! took forever haha

 

Yea, that looks great!
