You know if you use 1999-05 Blazer spindles/ lower control arms, you can upgrade to dual piston calipers. And the different sway bar will clear your tires. We did this swap on our 85 4X4 pickup. Stopping is 40% better.

Cool project; thanks for sharing! :) I don't know how much off roading you do but have you ever thought of converting this to AWD? I've done the swap and it's not hard. You'd have the traction of a GMC Typhoon which would really let you get that v8 power to the pavement and would also help you to navigate slippery road conditions. Best mod I ever did.

I've had 3 S10s, 2 ZR2s, and the only thing I have ever done that made the steering feel "good" was the Flaming River U Joint. It's worth every penny and takes out all the slop, and provides more solid steering feedback. That rag joint is toast!

The extra engine mass and shifted weight distribution can screw with stock suspension geometries and spring stiffness; you've a lot more weight hanging in front of the axles with a 350 than a 2.8 V6. If your ride height remained the same after the swap, something other than the springs must be compensating for the extra 200+ lbs up front.
@FuzzyDiceProjects6 жыл бұрын
My understanding is that the TBI 4.3L engines weigh just over 400lbs with accessories, and a 350 with iron heads should weigh somewhere around 475. And I stripped out quite a few parts (like the A/C equipment) from the engine bay so the difference is probably only 50-75 lbs. Doesn't seem to ride any different and the ride height didn't change from my measurements before and after the swap.
@NevinWilliams716 жыл бұрын
Ah... it looked a bit older than when they started putting 4.3s in 'em, which IIRC, was in '88 or '89...? Since the 4.3s were essentially just 3/4 of a 350, not as much of a difference.

I'm not sure why they did this, the damper was still good.

I've got a '91 that exhibits the same issues, bump steer and tramlining, and it got downright frightful on an icy highway. I'm about ready to paint a white strip down the center and call it "skunk." I've done some adjustment to the steering box, but I'm going to upgrade/replace the rag joint before exploring that any further. Adding a damper (which I thought was going to be replacing a missing one) is just one step I plan to take. I got the guard off, and there is no place for the business end on the drag link. According to "chitlin's" most of those trucks were supposed to have one. Led astray again. I can't see how they can justify $65+ for an add on bracket made out of stamped metal, so it looks like I'm going to be making one. The other issue I'm trying to resolve is a pop/jerk when it's in 4x4. Nearest I can tell, it's not a chain drive transfer case (231-c). Even if it was, it doesn't exhibit the slack that you would find with a stretched chain, so ... With that ruled out, can anyone give me the most likely place to look for the problem??? ... ?
@FuzzyDiceProjects5 жыл бұрын
Does your truck still have the original vacuum actuator for the front differential? If so the "pop" may be the diff slipping from a poor/incomplete lock. Just an idea. I ended up replacing the steering shaft with a more solid Cherokee one and it didn't really help the steering. The play is still in the steering box, the reman one wasn't actually that much better. The stabilizer made a big difference in masking the issues and making it driveable but it still isn't ideal or the most pleasant. Best of luck with your project!
@infoanorexic5 жыл бұрын
@@FuzzyDiceProjects I just came in from installing the damper on mine. My take on it is than it makes things easier to manage. It was obvious, when I got the truck, that a lot of work has already been done on the front end. One lower ball joint has a tiny bit of play, perhaps one of the lower arm bushing, everything else has checked out. Not enough to explain it's wandering ways, in my mind. The looseness became a lot more defined when I lost the belt a few weeks ago. Steer like a mule in a turn, and when I started to straighten out, easy for about 15 degrees and back to fighting it. So, rag joint next, then steering box. Fighting that plastic shield, between the power steering hoses and the lines to the remote oil filter being in the way, makes it difficult to find out anything. It does still have the vacuum actuated front axle lock. It failed me last time I tried to use it, about a week ago. I haven't investigated that yet.

I have changed shock absorbers that doesn't want to expand at all ,while brand new,and even after actuate them by hand in their working position. As i know only gas shocks expand since one chamber's surface is bigger than the other( no rod on one side) so the pressure/surface ratio is greater on one side of the shock,wich expand it. oil shocks doesn't. If you want an accurate alignement,simply use the center of your 4 wheels to create a line parallel to your car (while taking in consideration the diferennce of track width between front and rear),and then adjust the front toe in according to this line.
