K10 Squarebody + 9 Inch Lift + 1 Ton Axles - Lifted & Supercharged Chevy K10 Truck Ep. 2

Did your grandma get you a sweater you'll never wear for Christmas? Check out our website for some sick hoodies you'll actually rock!
www.salvagetosavage.com
-----------------------------------------------------------
This week we're back on the off-road K10. We're continuing with the suspension on this lifted, supercharged, LT4 swapped squarebody by tearing out the rear axle. That's because we're replacing it with a 1-ton axle from APE. We're pairing that up with the Off-Road Design 9" lift, and King shocks to not only jack this squarebody up but make it ready to handle the trails too! We're not just stopping with the suspension either! Our supercharged LT4 is also getting mocked up into the frame as well this week AND we're boxing in our frame to give it that extra rigidity all of you guys were asking about in our first episode! By the time we end for the day, we have our K10 squarebody sitting on our shop floor, looking pretty with it's new lift!

You guys make it look so easy! I am sure many DIYers, like myself, see your work and think "I can do that!". A few years later... "Should have paid an expert to do it!". 😂🤣

[@SalvagetoSavage]

But if you never try you'll never learn! Failing is the first step to becoming an expert!

He showed you mad respect in that reply ....my respects to S2S for being encouraging and humble !

Great episode and a great look into how much work goes into a "simple" build. Really enjoyed it.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Our simple is making things as hard as possible for ourselves lol

[@darrelleaf]

You guys video's are getting better and better. Dave is excellent addition the team and a highly skilled builder. Andrew is a another highly skilled builder too and these two working together make a fully baked rebuild video. Savage to Savage, Nice job guys

[@UncleManuel]

It's awesome to see that you guys also can master the other direction of ride height. Offroad suspensions have a lot of moving parts (pun intended), namely articulation is a crucial part. It was cool to see Andrew & Dave explaining this important part and taking their time to test for clearance and binding... 😎🤟

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks so much for the support! Hope you had a great new year dude!

[@-Mike-69]

I would like to say how surprised I am with your level of workmanship,,,,, but I'm not surprised anymore. It's impeccable ! Could you imagine how long things would take if you didn't have access to the CNC plasma table ? I can. I built 6 or 7 square body trucks for off road in the late 80s into the early 90s. What takes 10 or 15 minutes with the plasma,,, you could have been all day just trying to fab up a pair of mounts. That would of been a game changer for sure.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Definitely! Especially having someone in the shop like Dave who's so good at taking designs on paper and transferring them into CAD!

[@HogshooterHotrods]

Wow, this ride is going to be a beast!! nice fab work and fitting the parts to make sure there are no issues! And as always awesome video editing, just the right amount of talk and action!!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Thanks so much for the support!

[@jasonpaine9546]

Thats is some beeefy suspension! Looks bulletproof

[@Siyadlams]

This build has more metal fabrication required and produces enjoyable content. I am loving it. These lift kit parts are beefy and would imagine add weight to the vehicle, understandably so.

[@Posibrian]

Stoked to see y’all boxed the frame, I’m doing mine as well! I also enforced my frame side link brackets and basically made them boxes instead of tabs. Great work guys, Dave is a huge asset! Appreciate the upload!

[@chrispy104k]

With the work that you did making an alternative lower mount for the shocks, I hope the guys back at the supplier take on board what you did.

[@SalvagetoSavage]

The mounts they supplied could be fine for a different axle/lift/shock set up. They just didn't happen to work for our application! I'm sure ORD has their set ups dialed in, we just like making it harder for ourselves! lol

[@georgecerda7802]

I hope you include some hydraulic bump stops and you will need limit straps. Also, having an alternator that low isn't good if the truck sees any water crossings or puddles. Wegner Automotive makes a front drive kit that relocates the alternator and compressor up top and has a dedicated supercharger belt. You might also consider how to engineer a front sway bar while it is easy to cycle the suspension. A solution here is not obvious, given all the moving parts.

[@tylerseabook9423]

Dumbest thing I’ve ever read🤦‍♂️ no alternator ever on any car ever hasn’t gotten wet🤦‍♂️ and this thing 100% doesn’t need limiting straps

[@SalvagetoSavage]

The kit comes with bumpstops and straps. Good point about the alternator and sway bar!

Widen the spacer between the tabs.

[@CrankAddict]

I was right! You claimed that was a "corvette" transmission in the last video, and I called you out on it. You said that you were sure that "RPM knows what they are selling". Now you admit that it is a camaro transmission!

[@SalvagetoSavage]

It's a fully rebuilt TR6060 using a Camaro bell housing and a transaxle tail shaft housing out of a corvette. We could have left the the 3 minute uncut explanation of Andrew explaining the entire RPM rebuild but we didn't expect anyone watching to be so dense or pedantic

[@theshop2545]

@@SalvagetoSavage 😂😂😂his friends must loove him

[@CrankAddict]

@@SalvagetoSavage Ouch! As a corvette guy, I recognized that the transmission was NOT from a Corvette as was claimed. Maybe meticulous or precise would describe me better than dense or pedantic. KZbinrs would probably be interested in knowing that this was camaro transmission with a corvette tailhousing. Was the tailshaft camaro or corvette? who makes the adapter that you used? These are all valid questions.

Are you going to build a crossover for the front shock hoops? That's a lot of force going through those welds!

[@tylerseabook9423]

Blows my mind how many people spell axle wrong lmao

[@SalvagetoSavage]

Our editor uploaded this at 2 am this morning so y'all would have a video to watch today!

[@thattallguyisac]

Arent you not fully utilizing the travel of the shock? Would it not be best to get a smaller shock(cheaper) and have it at a less drastic angle (closer to normal to the axel) and get the same amount of travel?

[@SalvagetoSavage]

The shocks are supposed to be angled backwards for this suspension/4-link. At best, if we used a shorter shock, it would give us the same amount of vertical travel in the wheel, but that travel would happen over less travel in the shock, and the suspension wouldn't be as effective.

[@tarasbogachov4571]

And nothing that they confused the places of the shock absorber mounting brackets😅?

[@adubbelde1]

So you're boxing the frame with bare steel. What are your plans for rust in the frame? I"m doing it to my 37 CHev PU and I plan on spraying with Cavity Wax once the outside is painted.

[@Piglet6256]

What happened to the other 2 fabricators we saw in the previous video's???

[@wkrick]

The upper shock mount brackets look asymmetrical. Would there have been enough clearance if you had swapped them?

@@SalvagetoSavage thank you for the info

[@gabechiplin8140]

Can't help thinking that the rear coil over mounts are constantly putting the axle into a pinion up twist, more so now you have moved the location further away from the axle tube? Don't want to sound critical as I love your builds, just saying.
