Guys I have a 1990 Chevy C1500 350 sport , identical to the truck you guys are working on. You are building it very similar to what I had in mind for mine. I’ve never had a bunch of money so I had to buy parts here and there so my truck set up for many years. Just when I got rolling good with my build my shop burnt down with everything own in it. I was in the process of moving so when I got back to Louisiana I had no place to really live so I moved all my stuff in my parents shop. All my new parts all my tools I mean eve that was in my last home was stored in the shop. A couple months later the shop burnt to the ground with all my stuff in it. Then top it all off I got screwed out of my transmission from a local builder. I am almost in tears watching you guys build this truck! You guys are doing a top notch job on that truck. I hope one day soon I’ll get the money together again but it don’t look like that will happen to soon. Thanks guys for all the good ideas. I really like the rear end work you guys built for the truck

When C-notching the frame, always center punch and drill a hole at the corners prior to cutting out the C. This prevents the frame from cracking due to stress, vs just making straight cuts in to the corners.

@PiDsMedia that's what I was thinking also. I would have pulled the engine,trans and all suspension and cleaned the frame. Then do the rear suspension mods then pull it apart to paint. Next would have been the front suspension after painting. Engine last as there's a lot of weight with it and without the rear suspension and bed it could have tipped the truck off the lift. Did you also catch the right front caliper hanging by it's hose? Later it was sitting on the frame.

The way you did the rear suspension is a waste of a truck not to mention that cantilever setup is going to stress there pivot mounts big time the way you did it ever see a mount fail that is responsible for holding a vehicle up. Should have engineered the cantilever setup parallel to frame still have same function and and not side load the pivots as the rear-end torques. This also would alow to mount the pivot below a mount so instead of pulling at mounting it is compressing the mounting. Lastly this would have give full use of bed and a much stronger longer lasting setup.

I love it when people do things that aren't totally necessary just because you can. Imagination is a great thing in hobbies I reckon. I put a cross ram intake on a SBC in my 4x4 truck for the same reason - oh and a really expensive Milodon single idler gear drive. In case anyone was wondering it is totally, completely, utterly silent when set up as per the instructions - as quiet as the chain it replaced. I was hoping for a very slight but noticeable whir. Apparently the crappy dual idler 'quiet' are still pretty loud but I was never going to put one of those in anyhow. Oh well it'll last forever and the front seal is easy to replace now.

Why not upgrade the steering with rack and pinion as well? Sorry if that's a goofy question but I've watched tons of obs and nbs4x4 videos and NOBODY EVER attempts to install a rack. Take 4x4 nbs for instance, all it would take is the 2wd nbs rack and sway bar and lower universal on the steering shaft. As long as the rack was perfectly centered, and you relocated the frame mounts for the sway bar, it wouldn't really be a whole lot of modifications

I would think that triangulating the lower arms would eliminate the need for the panhard link and the resulting yaw movement of the rear axle as the panhard moves through its arc. I know its minimal but, at speed through a bumpy turn, it might be enough to affect handling ever so slightly.

And, why were they not measured with a spacer that matches the backing plate for the brakes? There's a high possibility those axles are not fully engaged on the splines now.
