Well update.. and running list.
Orders Tbar keys bolts and nuts from Hicksville, arrived today,
egr oil cooler block and valley oil supply block from DHD, got here yesterday,
Been digging in a 01-10 dmax parts pile, found some better front calipers(non frozen) set a of front brake pads, 3" turbo down pipe,
Rear brakes were replaced before the wreck with new rotors pads and calipers.
Got parts to put heater core supply on the T-stat housing, 3/8" NPT T with 1 male and 2 female bosses, 3/8 NPT to 5/8" barb. Definitely not DHD kit nice.
Got new upper ball joints installed.. noticed DS doesn't free drop to full droop stop like PS does.. solid 1" left of travel at the hub to drop.
Need to get lower rear front Diff mount bracket welded back on.
Rear shocks are getting reused, front the upper stud mount is too far gone, eventually all 4 will be replaced. With Bilstein 5100s
No clue on wheels and tires yet.. the pics with black wheels are off my 01 2500 Suburban. Those are 305/70/17 on 17*9 and front has custom 6" BS rear are stock 5" BS
Saved few FB marketplace adds with 17" H2 wheels with worn tires.
I have a set of stock 16" PYOs that are chewed up. All my 16" tires are figuratively "Bald" for winter.. all sub 4/32 tread depth
I've hinted before, I have almost all the drivetrain stuff from my 07 LMM. Thinking swapping the the 07 trans that has aftermarket TC, trans-go JR kit, Mike L pump pressure already installed. Downside almost 500k on it and sitting since late '17. With DS dipstick,
Including GT4088R with the bored out GT3788R T3 gated housing,
3" high flow Y bridge and cold pipe I snagged back in '18 from DHD
Couple S300SXE turbos with T4 gated housing 362/68, 364/74, 366/74 that I had on my 8.3 Cummins, need a T4 pedestal for those. None of the air stuff NEEDs swapped out to get the truck moving.. NGL having the engine on the ground makes a turbo swap A LOT easier.
At minimum will break all the bolts loose and puts some anti-seize on them and re-install
IDK if I should go with Energy Suspension's body mounts are S&B's
Still need hood, grill, head lights and front bumper, power steering pressure lines, sway bar end links. Gooseneck hitch, though probably make my own. Called local metal shop, ~210.00 for it to be based off a 6"*0.75 thick plate, or 230.00 for 6.0"*1.0 thick plate
Front and rear most bolts came out of the bed, most likely put bed back on for time being.
Making Christmas a 4 day weekend, hopefully get a lot done
