    As much as I loved your race truck it was out of reach and more than most need, this project is one I’m really going to appreciate so thanks for getting it going and taking us along !! 🤔 would tick performance have a shifter to replace my stock 5 speed in my first Gen S10 …

    • @level7motorsports

      Thanks for following along. But I would suggest you talk to Tick about a shifter.

    Love the OBS trucks. These were the body style that I grew up with in the 90's. Always wanted a single cab short bed V8 with a manual. My dad has an '01 NBS, so we'll probably end up building it instead. Looking forward to when the aftermarket discovers these trucks.

    • @level7motorsports

      They will be a popular truck but it’s still a little early for there to much support.

    Siked for this build! I actually juat purchased a 92 rcsb k1500 in summit white with the red interior. It's just a lifter tapping v6, but i love it. I'll swap it in the future when it decides to give out. 318k and still ticking😅

    Awesome updates, Jesse. Keep em comin!!
    1. Any idea on weight savings between the stick column and the ididit?
    2. I’ve been eyeing that tick short throw shifter and the clock offset adapter. My truck needs it badly. I actually fumbled a shift mid-run 2 weeks ago because of it. Thanks for showcasing that!

    • @level7motorsports
      @level7motorsports  6 месяцев назад

      This column is just a few pounds. Much lighter than a stock column!

    I'm building an 89 C1500, also manual, most of the suspension and steering is done but I'm chasing down the last bit of play in the steering. The only thing I haven't replaced related to steering is the linkage and everything in the cab. The linkage is fine so I'm looking at rebuilding or replacing the column so I'm pretty interested in this. I'd prefer to keep the factory turn signal and cruise control lever though. I do need a new ignition cylinder and to fix/replace the steering lock so a full replacement might be best. I'm more concerned with performance and aesthetic than I am price but I'm not really finding options for these trucks aside from universal applications.
    Also love the offset shifter idea, I'll have to look into that when I swap my engine and transmission.

    • @level7motorsports

      There is a guy in Nashville TN that can rebuild the column. Just google steering column repair in Nashville. He helped with a 1990 OBS column for me.

    One of my favorite shows on RUclips! I grew up driving a obs Chevy in high school. Sold it when I was a sophomore and it haunted me for 10 years. I would have dreams I was washing it lol😅I finally found one identical to it. 93 red 2 door z71 stepside 350/5speed that I’m going to have my boy drive when he’s old enough and just got a hold of a 96. Installing the qa1 front and rear suspension this week, front and rear big brake kit while I’m there as well. Sourced me an aluminum 5.3 and 4l80e and just got my Magnuson tvs 2300 last week so now I gotta start getting a list of parts for drivetrain!

    Thanks bro. For showing the mods in this video. Its very similar to what Id like to do with mine. Im building a RWD 98 2door short bed Silverado. 406sbc NA. 4L60E. Im Going to get another trans. Uncertain about which one. I Will eventually change the suspension as well. Do you have an IRS set up for these trucks? I plan to sometimes aggressively daily/AutoX and maybe some road course driving.

    • @level7motorsports
