    Thanks again for info and inspiration. I never would have done the build if I hadn't found your build videos on youtube. I did end up putting a 1.5 inch spacer in the front to level the truck out. Still building out the rear bumper pics soon on instagram. Most of all can't wait for my trip back to moab to put it to the test on the rocks.

    That silverado was squatted before he took the to sassing it... however I'm thinking about sassing my 03 tahoe z71. Don't necessarily want a crap ton of lift or travel, but something stronger than the gmt800 front end would be nice. I'll probably d44 swap both axles, selectable locker in the front and rear and get rid of the obviously open diff up front and g80 diff in the back

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  2 роки тому

      Obviously the d44 front I'm a fan of. But especially in a rear, there isn't any strength advantages to a d44 over an 8.6. Same size ring gear, both 30 spline etc.
      Not to mention d44 rear axles leak at the axle endlessly. It's that A40 bearing and seal retaining plate setup.
      You'd be ahead to leave your rear axle, if you're wanting strength toss in some chromoly shafts. And I'll always recommend a selectable locker. You're on the right track there

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  Рік тому

      Is yours is a GMT 900 There are differences, it's not the exact same not because it's a pickup truck but because it's a 2007
      The frames are wider and you need to add a steering box.
      I discuss how to do it with wider frames in this video

    Im subscribed love the content. I seen another guy doing similar swap on here on a Chevy but with Ford super duty front axles. This seems like a much easier swap.. ... I have been thinking about this since I put the body lift on my 05 tahoe z71...

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  2 роки тому +1

      I have customers doing this swap in their driveway, start-to- finish in under a month
      The Ford super duty axles are so much more difficult, that it would take a flow chart to explain how much more.
      I'll give you the highlights:
      The Ford axle forces you to lose ABS (even the expensive custom hubs that are sold have the wrong tone ring tooth count for Chevy)
      the Ford axle forces you to go 8- lug. But not even the Chevy 8x6.5, but rather a metric 8 lug. So you either need extremely expensive hubs or to deal with it with wheel adapters, or use a Ford rear axle too etc.
      You must use custom steering with the Ford axle. My swap can use off the shelf dodge steering in its entirety
      The list goes on and on. But that's a few points

      @InToTheBackroads both 2wd and 4wd use 4l60e. The 4wd just uses a different output shaft.

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  Рік тому +1

      I have some experience lifting Astros, the answer is No, the astro is a unibody vehicle with a front sub frame, it's an entirely different animal. As well as the Astro width is much too narrow. It can be done in I'm sure, but it's all custom fabrication. If you're needing someone to do it. We can swap your ASTRO in our shop for you also. But it's serious custom work.
      The jeep axle is used on Astros because it as already narrow track width and small pattern 5 lug so it's already closer to the Astro's configuration.

    I've got an '08 Escalade ESV all wheel drive and want to know if the awd would be any good off road with a suspension upgrade and lift? Or, should I scrap the awd system and do front and rear solid axles or just get another 4x4 vehicle and upgrade parts?

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  Рік тому +1

      Realistically you'd want to be rid of the AWD in favor of a 4wd system with low-range. Which can be retrofitted to your truck. But it would be fairly labor intensive.
      The GMT900 platform is a little harder to solid axle swap too.
      It might be best to sell that one, and purchase a gmt800 platform that is already 4wd

      I bought this Escalade a little more than 3yrs ago w/93k miles in really great shape. I'm an electrical contractor in Los Angeles and I daily drive it as a work truck, both rear rows of seats are folded down and it's full tools, ladders, and material. It's the only two seater Escalade I know of. Hahahahaha. It has about 115k miles now so it has a lot of life left in her. But should have the suspension redone and that started me thinking about what my options might be.

    • @tahoverlanding

      @Kenneth the gmt900 platform doesn't have a steering box. It has a rack and pinion. So a steering box needs to be added. That's what makes it more difficult.

      That's enough of a different animal that I can't speak with any certainty.
      What I can say is that the tahoverlanding coil mounts are made for gmt800 but can be adapted to nearly anything. It's just a matter of how you attach them to the frame.
      So if your express frame rails are a little wider you would just French the mounts into the frame.

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  Рік тому

      @@hitmanshadowrecon9017 okay so let me just sort of unpack a little bit of what you have said there. First things first a 3/4 ton suburbans have entirely different frames at the back end. Actually it's entirely different front to back I did a video on that like 2 weeks ago. Used a 3/4 ton Suburban as an example
      So even if you were to try that it wouldn't work as straightforward as it sounds like you think it will.
      Second as you watch more of my videos in the past and those to come you'll find that I do my absolute best to dispel beliefs that what you have is not strong enough
      But what I will say is that strengthwise as far as control arms go I've not had any failures of my factory control arms and I beat the living crap out of mine off-road
      And what is a common swap for guys doing the swap who plan to haul loads they use the H2 Springs which have a stiffer spring rate. There's a couple of guys that have done the swap that did that.
      So to sum up don't replace something you haven't had fail yet, run your rear suspension as is and if in fact it fails then look to strengthen it somehow. You'll find that those who have left it and done little more than just put stiffer Springs in to carry a larger load, they have kept it because they're quite happy with it

    • @tahoverlanding

      @Lifted Trucks USA well with '80s Chev truck axles you'll need different wheels, you'll lose ABS, you'll need a different transfer case, need to heavily modify exhaust, need to cut a hole in your floor. . . The list goes on as to how difficult those axles are to fit in comparison to the #tahoverlandingaxleswap which none of the above are an issue.
      I urge you to consider a tahoverlanding swap. Everyone to do it so far is quite happy with it

      Yes, but since the H2 front end is based on the HD frame. You just need to treat it like a 3/4ton Tahoverlanding Axle Swap. I did a video talking about this here:

      Mostly just for Simplicity, and ease.
      A person could, but so far everyone hasn't chosen to, and those that have done the swap are so happy with their swaps they don't have any plans in the future to put coilovers on.

    Why not just leaf spring it???

    • @tahoverlanding
      @tahoverlanding  6 місяців тому

      Leaf spring swaps are inferior in every single way.
      I actually filmed a video going over the countless reasons. And it was 49 minutes long. Maybe one day I'll upload it as a 3 part series.
      But in all seriousness, a leaf spring swap is for someone who isn't interested in maximizing the benefits of their solid axle conversion.
      Leaf spring swaps are for individuals who blindly want a solid axle so bad, that they're blind to the deficiencies

    This is a question you may have answered in your previous videos, but I don't recall seeing any footage explaining it:
    How did you figure out where to place the new coil buckets for the front axle? I am assuming you have to make some careful measurements and mark the new frame plates.
    Thanks in advance!

      But you can go with the Dana 44 from 1994-2001 that came in the 3/4 ton ram which had the 8x6.5 bolt pattern.
      The same year range Ram also had a Dana 60 with the 8x6.5 pattern. But the 60 comes at a sacrifice of performance. It raises the center of gravity.
      This is because the more bulky housing can't travel upward as far so it needs a higher ride height to get the same upward travel.
