Great video. I wish this was out there when I completed my shackle flip as a reference. starting the component build for my one ton swap myself. I have a 2003 Suburban 2500 with a nicely top end rebuilt 6.0 that I want to put in the K5 one day, so I'll be watching with interest. Thanks guys! Kert, thanks for all the support and great products. DIY4X rocks!

Nice job with the swap. Whichever engine you go with, i'd strongly recommend spending the extra and getting a 4L80E if you go 4 speed auto. You can also go with a turbo 400, which will bolt up to the LS easily. The 4L60 you'd get with most junkyard pulled drivetrains won't last with the heavy axles and tires and probably the use you will be doing with the truck. Looking forward to seeing how this goes

Looking for the axles and an NV4500. We have smaller hills, and lots of mud in S.E. Texas, so I'm building it for that.

BustedKnuckleVideo Well, since you already have to do the rest of the body mounts, may as well just pull the tub. Then you could address the frame. Would probably make it easier to get the drivetrane in as well.

Nice upgrade easy to do but some helpful tips would be to paint to mark front springs when taking apart and if your adding springs use c- clamps to hold springs together

I'm running a lot of those parts on my ls swapped k10! I say you can't go wrong with a 6.0/4l80e setup. Good power and strength with small upgrades. But if you have the coin. A 6.2/6l90 would be amazing!!

why did you choose a 241 over the 205?

I think it has a better gear ratio and probably half the weight. but a 205 is a solid t case too...

internally i think it's strong. the only thing is the outer case is aluminum so if you hit a rock or something you have a good chance of cracking it ,but if you have a good skid plate you should be good.

you need to invest in a couple sets of 12 ton jack stands , the height and stability you can get out of them will make them the most loved when doing stuff like this , or fooling with something lifted , very handy

Excellent video. You showed me everywhere I went wrong with installing an off the shelf lift kit. My 85 crew 1 ton will rattle your teeth out. I think the 8.1l backed with the Allison tranny would make a fun rig and plenty of power. Might be harder to find but would be worth it in the long run.
@BustedKnuckleVideo
@BustedKnuckleVideo 7 жыл бұрын
Yes the off the shelf lift kits make for a bumpy ride on these. Not a bad setup at all with the 8.1, It's just a massive engine and transmission.

Yes, this is my 2nd 1009. I have also owed a 1031 as well. The 1009 didn't have the 5/4 ton axles (all the other CUCV's were 1.25 ton trucks) I can't remember which front axle it has but the rear axle just has the gov locker. It's a lot of fun. I always keep them stock 24 volt and love the 6.2 for being so damn dependable. Love your show! I just subscribed today. Thanks for what you guys do!
