1989 and before Chevy two-door Blazers

Same site I listed has the diesel rams. But, the bobbed deuce would be sick.

I have a 01 ram 2500 4x4 and haven't had a single issue with my auto hubs, the rear diff is a different story I'm on my 3rd but they were under warranty apparently the use a special dodge only fluid.

Pretty sure it doesn't have auto hubs in an 01. If anything it's got an axle disconnect at the diff.

How many gallons per mile?

 

[SC-Texas]

I have got to get mine painted

Can't be worse than my Tundra's 9.5mpg city, lol

 

[TexasDad]

Dodge kinda pissed me off that way. They went from having some of the best drive trains made, but crappy bodys, to nice bodies and problems with the drive trains. If they could get the two together they'd be doin' great!

 

[Jon Payne]

13 MPG in current config. Not too bad when it only got 15 stock and even that wasn't checked on GPS.

That really isn't bad. Does it have overdrive?

 

[Jon Payne]

Yes, it does, but when I'm pulling a trailer or boat it goes unused.

They are auto I have the factory build sheet, front d60 automatic locking hubs 4:10 gear ratio.

Yep, it's very nice!

with that budget, drop the Blazer and get this:
100Dollarman - Trucks!

I"d love to grab one of those bobbed deuces, but my HOA would evict me if I parked it on the driveway

I wish there were surplus Suburbans, not just the K5s.

 

[ChunkyMonkey]

never know, should email him, lol. I looked into my association. If you get the 2.5 deuce, you don't need the different class license, then it wouldn't violate my HOA, lol. I almost went for one, but just bought back my old motorcycle instead, lol. would like to pick up a bobbed deuce within a year and a half though.

It's automatic, but it's not in the hubs. I just looked it up; the hubs are sealed hub and bearing assemblies. The D60 on that truck uses a vacuum-operated sliding collar to lock and unlock the driver front axle shaft. On the 3850 lb version of the D60, the locking assembly is on the passenger side shaft. On the 4850 lb D60, it's on the driver side. Look at your front GAWR to tell which it is and look for a box attached to the tube with a vacuum hose or two run to it. It'll be there.

Why bobbed? More axles is more better, no?

My work truck.

Sweet looking truck....but too much lift for any serious offroading.

 

[Jon Payne]

Off roading here means muddin. For anything else you're quite right. This is the only K5 to ever complete the "Deweyville Run" which was a 25 mile mud race.

Wasn't my intent to be critical. I think it looks great. You are correct. Mudders need lift.

 

[Jon Payne]

Oh no, I didn't take it that way.
