NP271 and drive shaft will be on order this week
JOKERGERM 06-05-2010, 06:39 PM I like it. Did you do that all your self?
I bet a shop would charge 10k+ to do that front axle swap
Is the front a Dana 60? it did not look like it in the pics
slinden 06-05-2010, 06:43 PM My buddy owns a shop and helped me out alot. I didnt do that picture with the write up. It is really a AAM 9.25 not a dana 60
buildingup 06-05-2010, 07:18 PM Looks good. Did you go from a large IFS lift or just straight from stock to what you have?
Also, how you liking it right now?
wreedLBZ 06-05-2010, 07:23 PM Very very nice
slinden 06-05-2010, 07:47 PM Looks good. Did you go from a large IFS lift or just straight from stock to what you have?
Also, how you liking it right now?
I had 8" IFS lift on 37's. Blew basicly everything in the front end up wheeling and realized there was only one option.....SAS!!!!
wreedLBZ 06-05-2010, 07:53 PM how is steering handled when you go to sas
slinden 06-05-2010, 07:58 PM steering and drives great. 80mph no problem. It is my daily driver so that was one thing I wanted perfect
wreedLBZ 06-05-2010, 07:59 PM No I mean how do you adapt is to the factory steering gear?
slinden 06-05-2010, 08:03 PM Steering is factory gear box with the Pure Performace pitman arm. With a draglink with full heim joints. Hydro assist will be soon
buildingup 06-05-2010, 08:16 PM You mind me asking how much you have into it. Also, did you do the free spin kit for the axle to increase mileage?
slinden 06-05-2010, 08:18 PM 7 grand in parts. free spin is also in the works
wreedLBZ 06-05-2010, 08:20 PM Is that a brand new axle? Is alignment set like a dodge ram now?
also any CELs because of swap?
meanmachine 06-05-2010, 08:22 PM Very sexy. Is it just me or do your lights look like they have a flat/matte finish. Or is it just the tint you used? Looks like the bumper has rhino liner on it too.
buildingup 06-05-2010, 09:33 PM 7 grand in parts. free spin is also in the works
Thanks, What you running for ball joints. OEM dodge or something special?
CStevenson 06-05-2010, 10:36 PM Looks good!
Dmaxnutz 06-05-2010, 10:59 PM Nice!
Sledheadxp800r 06-06-2010, 04:11 AM I have been a dodge tech for over 9 years so be ready to replace balljoints and axle u-joints like they are going out of style.
The good thng about the 9 1/4 is the ball joints and u-joints Are easier to change Than the Dana 60 front
down4bmx 06-06-2010, 02:57 PM Is that a brand new axle? Is alignment set like a dodge ram now?
also any CELs because of swap?
There should bee any check engine lights on after the swap.. Mines been CEL Light free since the day I broguht it home... 2 and half years later im good
slinden 06-06-2010, 03:26 PM Axle is out of a 2005 Dodge 2500. All ball joints were replaced. The only CELs I have are from my PPE
Sledheadxp800r 06-06-2010, 07:11 PM Looks sick good luck with the beast

prenn 06-07-2010, 10:45 PM looks sweet man! are you gonna run a sway bar? also did you rotate the knuckles on the axle? looks like a better pinion angle than mine or it might just be the picture.
MUD SLUT 06-08-2010, 03:58 PM looks great.....love your truck too mud slut
Thanks! Hi-jack over.:D
2LoNoma 06-09-2010, 07:47 PM that thing is sick!

Nor-Cal Nick 06-09-2010, 08:35 PM LOoks bad ass!! Love the black out. Nice to see another PP SAC kit running around.
FROGMAN524 06-10-2010, 02:23 AM Wanna trade?
bigjoseph 06-11-2010, 11:30 AM truck looks alwesome. what sas kit is that ur running. is it the pure porformance kits, and does it have 4wd lights on.
slinden 06-11-2010, 11:53 AM Its a PP kit with longer control arms. No 4x4 lights. Probably cause I have a manual 4x4 shifter.
Sledheadxp800r 06-11-2010, 12:24 PM Its a PP kit with longer control arms. No 4x4 lights. Probably cause I have a manual 4x4 shifter.
longer trailing arms?did you moved the mount farther back on the frame or you had to re center the axle in the wheel well because you made an 8" lift into a 14"?
buildingup 06-11-2010, 07:02 PM longer trailing arms?did you moved the mount farther back on the frame or you had to re center the axle in the wheel well because you made an 8" lift into a 14"?
Looks like the mounts are a little farther back but could just be the pic. Looks like the axle might be a touch past center to so he don't rub on the body.
Brad92 06-11-2010, 07:14 PM That looks awesome! Its perfect!
XTINCT 06-11-2010, 07:22 PM UMMM WOW!! looks awesome!
Very nice. I like it. Good luck with it. I like the room in the wheel wells looks tough. I never really liked the stuff look. Great job!
cbobince23 06-21-2010, 09:07 PM I'm getting ready to do the same lift on my 2003 GMC 2500. I already bought a 2003 dodge 1-ton axle and am going with the Pure Performance 10 inch kit for the parts. Who did you go with for the front drive-shaft? I'll post some pictures of mine soon when I start it.
Duramax Pax 06-25-2010, 04:18 PM I need to go get some tissues. Im pretty sure I just Jimp'd
mtjasper 06-25-2010, 07:14 PM Looks mean! I like :D
chevyman_2000 06-25-2010, 08:23 PM Fack seeing that really makes me wish I spent the extra $3000 for the Chev. (For some stupid reason all the Chev's have a higher value in my area.?
chev.

YellowfinDmax 12-29-2011, 06:40 PM How much longer were the control arms lengthened? What else was done to achieve the extra lift?
SHCMAX 12-29-2011, 09:54 PM Sick Truck!!!
