Introductions & Greetings

Hell . My names cadden. I live in oregon. Lots of off road stuff to do here .
Anyways I stumbled upon this site and decided to register since I just got my very own 1970 GMC jimmy. It came with lots of new parts and a lot of work to do but everything is there. 6 inch suspension lift is already installed. Tires are brand new 35 Goodyear MTR' . Has a sm465 transmission and np205 transfer case. (I've actually got 2 transmissions it came with and 2 front drivelines)

I thought I'd be able to upload a picture on this but I cant figure it out
 
Welcome aboard!

For pics - the free membership allows you to link pics remotely hosted elsewhere AFTER you have 5 posts (to make sure you aren't a bot, etc). A paid membership allows you to either attach a pic to a post or upload your photos to a personal ck5 album (unlimited storage) which you can link here or on other sites.

Note - I don't think the free membership will allow you to see paid member attached (not linked) photos.

Finally diving into getting some work done on my 1990 K5, I've owned for 20 years. Besides a BDS 4.5" lift and 35 x 12.50s, she's pretty much stock everything.

I'm looking for some new bumpers. I've explored a couple custom fab options, anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have the means or desire to build your own? If not look at DIY4x or Offroad Design

and Welcome Aboard!
 
The rear bumper on mine is from Logans Metal they make a great product . Got it about the time they said I would. Look at it on one of my post is a picture.
 
This is the previous owners bumper setup of my Jimmy. I'd much prefer a stock bumper honestly

Hi guys! new member here in Maryland. Joined to hopefully get some help as i bring back a '87 C/K 30 454 with a 22' jerr-dan flatbed. My dad and i bought it a few years ago and it's been on the back burner of the project list til just recently.
i had a 80's K5 blazer in my teen years that needed more work then my current experience (and interest) could do so we sold it and i've been regretting it since.
My dad is big into hot rods (30's - 50's) and has a '36 fully restored Suburban.
i have a model A rat rod project that like the flatbed has been on the back burner haha

i daily a '93 suzuki samurai. i just finished my '85 rx7 project that i put a honda S2k motor in and she's running great! i also have a '91 nissan skyline GTR with a 6266 single on it. i have my welding certs plus a larger garage. short of machining work, between my dad and myself we can do just about anything we need to fixing vehicle wise. Hope to get some use out of the forum!

Let me see if i can figure out how to post some pics of my toys, the '87 flatbed and my dads suburban

Pics are a function of post counts (more than 5)
If you plan on staying around, the premium membership allows you to direct host the pictures to the site (ie no photo bucket!)

Welcome aboard, and looking forward to seeing the projects!

Hi im Mike 1990 v1500 suburban 4x4 ive had 21 years, i just replaced my 3rd transfer case, and ordered it 2 years ago and just got time today to unpack and install, mine was a 241 c electronic, and i received a 241c speedo cable version, is there a easy solution to transfer cable to electric without swapping old half of my other case and reassembling? Any suggestions? Thanks in advance
 
Welcome to the site. A lot of good info here.

Start a thread in the garage section. Someone will have the answer.

Any good solution will need the right housing which means you need to change the rear tail housing.
It's not that bad since you have the old one.
You could also sell the mechanical speedometer housing when you are done.
There is a market for that
