I was able to get 5" Polk Audio speakers in my doors. It is a tight fit and the hole needed opened up a little. Sounds great, totally worth it

Thank god for Ashcroft, I will be sending one of my t-cases to them for overhaul. I have been eyeballing their ratio's and for the LS swaps you can also go down to a 0.90 or a 1.00 ratio also. Don't think I should be going that fast on 37's though. Need to make my engine decision first.

I'm in the same boat right now. I have my D1 powertrain completely stripped at this time and want to repower it. The problem I have found is that the 3 options I am looking at all come in at around the same price L87/8L90, R2.8/TR4050, ACR 4.8 HiTorque/ZF4HP24. All have their advantages an...

Kingpin Design and Fab out of Oz has the Dobinsons in various rates and lifts. They also have the Superflexy +2.5" springs for the 110's

Had nearly the same issue with a D1 I just picked up to build. Left it idling while I was shoveling snow, it was deep enough that I did not realize it was still in drive when I got out out of it. Got back in, and got it turned around to get it in the driveway and after shutting it down, I was...

Blows me away what the D1's are fetching now. The only one on CL here in Denver they are wanting 19k for it. Honestly I would be starting the haggling at more like 7k. This is the worst bunch to try to sell to, me included. You will be answering questions all day and make no progress...

I have been looking into it myself. RW Engineering has the bits to do most of the swap. https://rw-eng.com/collections/ls-gen-v . Harness work would be all that is left.

Since I am re-doing my brake system with all Def bits, I was looking at swaping out the M/C with a Willwood tandem 1.125 bore with proportion valve. According to all the measurements and I'm sure a little creativity it should work fine.

It is funny to hear the stories of buying these old trucks. I am on my 3rd D1 and each one has had its issues. First one I picked up for $1600 after the female wrecked her car. A neighbor that owed me money sold it to me. Very detailed folder with all maint done. Still the drivers door...

If you have a chance, I would like to see a pic of your ABS delete with the Willwood prop valve. Going to do that while I have motor and trans out. My third D1 and I have never had one with the ABS functional. I've wanted to delete the module since my first one. I am going to have air filter...

I have had 3 D1's and all had this problem. When I pulled the PCB (printed circuit board) in the glovebox, the bad solder connection was very obvious. Re-soldered it and never had the problem again. Well, until regulator teeth stripped, then I had to weld on new teeth. There are plenty of...

Sold

Will Tillery here sells a D90 kit for front. Pretty simple new calipers and rotors. Done

I have seen that truck on AT for months. If it wasn't for the ridiculous price I would have inquired because it looks super clean, and with supercharger and 5speed this thing is just asking to grow up into a real boy.

I think your asking price is fair. Court just awarded me $13k in restitution for mine (drunk driver/no insurance). The value of clean, slightly modified D1's is going through the roof. Good looking sled you have there and good luck with the sale.
