The start to finish transformation of a stock ’88 K1500 Sierra into a lowered LS-powered all-wheel-drive beast. Truck Tech takes their K1500 4WD and slam it with a 4”-6” lowering kit. LT hoists the tired 350 from the engine compartment for a budget-conscious 5.3L LS.

Wouldn't LS swapping an Auto-Track equipped OBS, essentially be the same thing? Except a whole lot less work…
Why Don't you wash the back of it Down, under the bk window?? Looks like crap all full of Dirt & the rest is clean..
How much you guys pay for the 88 Red Chevy pick up??
Your project started within my means, you quickly ran off and left me in the dust before you even swapped the motors! It's a really neat build, but not feasible, not practical, not REAL WORLD! Do you honestly believe that it will bring what you and your sponsors have poured into it? I doubt it! Definitely one of the shiniest turds I've ever seen!
I'm an old fart with a big ol dog! Otherwise that's the only reason I would do this! You got me thankin' My old girl is having a rough time climbing up into my 99 Jeep XJ Cherokee 4" lift! 😂
It's funny.I watch this guy and the only thing I can think of is "cabin boy" the movie
Dude never checked his mirrors once, and barely even had his eyes on the road. He was too busy looking at the cameras. 🙃
Looked good the way yall bought it. Just my opinion.
My first truck was a Black 89 2wd short bed regular cab Silverado with 350. Lowered 2" front/rear, American Racing Torq-Thrust wheels, Ceramic coated in/out Edlebrock Tri-Y headers, stainless cat-back, lots of cleaning and polishing. Miss that truck. Best to all.
Will that lock keep differential from binding. Awesome build
need part number for the front diff
What did you do about the rear end
Isnt DUAL THREE INCH enough flow for about 630 HP?
way more than that 400hp crate engine?!
I DONT KNOW WHY; everyonje likes and reinstalls CARPET on project vehicles?
car[et is just a giant DIRT CATCHER; IMPOSSIBLE TO CLEAN if someone spills any kid of liquid other than pure water.
just immagine some carpet type underlay for softness and sound deadening with a complete black rubber top surface.
impervious to any liquids, impervious to pet hair, impervious to kids n pets and lazy sloppy adults
And talking about how expensive it would be to rebuild and upgrade the stock 350…. why don't you show a price list of what you have in this ls swap?
Definitely not slammed. Lol
What did red tide cost
Anyone making that front differential mount yet?
Si quema khuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Is the full time awd better/stronger than the auto 4wd selectable tcase?
does any sell a prefab mount for the 8.25 diff? im not going try and fab one
Cool truck. Host is annoying
Man I miss when powerblock was good.. This project was awesome.. All the way back to Stacie David and Kevin tetz.. Danica Patrick and Courtney Hanson hosting.. By the time LT and Tommy bosher left, the production quality went down hill.. NOTHING against the later hosts.. But something changed behind the scenes. And it affected the shows..
What's the total you guys spent to build the truck, including purchase?
another looks over performance build, these guys are terrible.
Do a 4×4 83 suburban
Thats the stupidsst lookin truck iv ever seen, as usual yu morons take something nice & completely ruin it.
I have to ask. What does 4wd to awd mean on a vehicle with 4 wheels? If it's 4 wheel drive then that means all 4 wheels spin right? Then that would make it all wheel drive because all the wheels are driving, but it's still 4 wheel drive?
In short what's the difference between 4wd and awd? Is it that 4wd is a thing you can switch in and out of? Whereas awd is all the time?
I own a 88 k1500. Lowered? I’m out. Not interested at ALL!
Ruined a good 4×4 truck
What car is that power steering pump and bracket?👀
absolutely stupid idea. "just because you can, doesn't mean you should."
So cool one of my favorite episodes
I’m building a 1994 Yukon 2door and I plan on making it 6” RC lift and doing a AWD would you make a passenger side mounting bracket for me and I’ll pay you
I would probably have to cross the country and still have to view 200 trucks before I found one a tenth as good as the quality of this truck.
They lov sonax😂 but that truck turned out pretty good 👍🏾
Can't ruin something that already sucks.
bro took a unicorn and made it a monkey
You took that gorgeous chevy off-roadin'?
Would like the option to have color match the other lights
I don't like the gmt400 GMC grille
I loved this build. The only thing I would have done different is the rear lower. I would have dropped it no more than 4 inches. Leveled trucks look goofy on a lunch with the nose up and the rear down. Plus, we get snow here. You add weight to the back for traction and the now have the nose up and the rear down even while driving or at a stop.
Çlaim
I really don’t care for the dropped truck!! absolutely no secret likes here, ruined it for me sorry LT
Bada$$ truck! I've always rolled the idea of a lowered 4×4 around in my head…only one problem…I'd have to find 2 cause that thing was PERFECT the way you guys bought it.
Yeah, you definitely got scammed
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾I HAVE A 98 CHEVROLET LONG BED COME TO ATLANTA 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾✌🏾
A/C lines are full of water from the powerwashing
