    LBZ for donor???

    is it 4x4? is the frame rust free? $5500 would be tall...but for a well maintained/125k mile full donor chassis you're not going to get hurt on that too bad...If the chassis has the wheelbase that works for you as a donor then you're getting a lot for the money...I'd come at it at maybe $4500...

    2.8l duramax in a tj?

    small wheelbase stretch in the rear would solve that and most guys with built TJs do that anyways.

    2.8l duramax in a tj?

    plenty of automatic tj's with the 4.0 which is a long I-6, the I-4 mini-duramax wouldn't be any longer than that. If you are really wanting to wheel it the modern auto's are a better fit..

    2.8l duramax in a tj?

    why not stick with the auto? They are a hellavu lot better on the trail than a manual, particularly if you're running anything serious/technical..

    Going to do the forbidden... Duramax in a dodge

    The duramax/allison is paired(from GM) with an NP261xhd manual or 263xhd electric case, they have specific larger diameter 31spline shafts vs the more common smaller 32spline. At 440k you need to rebuild the turbo,replace the injectors, glow plugs, and cp3 pump, replace the water pump and while...

    Going to do the forbidden... Duramax in a dodge

    You will lose a lot by going stand alone...and there is no chance you will use the CTD sensors on the duramax to get guages unless you plan to run two full sets of computers...all of that is just data going between the ecms and body computers.. I can tell you that just going from a 2000 chevy...

    Going to do the forbidden... Duramax in a dodge

    no reason to disable abs...both chevy and dodge use AAM for axles, the tone rings are the same. I have a Ram3500 front axle in my chevy express conversion and the abs works fine. Integrating the chevy dash cassette/hvac into the dodge cab would be the toughest part...engine/trans mounts arent...

    Towing trouble..

    Have you had the pan off at all? sounds like low line pressure, maybe the filter seal failed or filter is damaged/dislodged? Are you 100% the level is good?

    Sure, are you just doing straight 2wd swaps or going 4wd also?

    LBZ pedal connector

    I'd ditch that stock intake manifold/heater assy and just use one of the aftermarket EGR delete intake tubes, you'll probably have to customize the connection to the intercooler anyways so you're going to want something that's easy to modify.

    LBZ pedal connector

    I remove the alternator and a/c compressor and use those mounts, I only move it with the trans still on so you'll have to sort out the rear connection.

    LBZ pedal connector

    Depending on how many miles on the duramax there's a few jobs to do on it while it's out and easy to work on you might consider. For sure while you have the flexplate off the back, replace the rear main seal. If it has more than 125k waterpump and front main seal as well. If it ran with the egr...

    LBZ pedal connector

    I think this is what you're looking for:

    LBZ pedal connector

    In your first picture you show the C105 connector, it basically is just an interface connector for the extension harness that goes to the pedal, most that are doing stand alone swaps just eliminate that connector and wire direct from the ECM to the pedal connector.

    2008 body on 2002 lb7/zf6 2500hd chassis?

    yep...you'd be far better off to find another dry clean bodied truck of your same era if you want to keep the LB7 drivetrain...you could swap on the 06/07 HD front clip and get some "updated" look...but honestly with the work you'll put in it just isn't worth it...you won't end up with anything...

    06 Tahoe body lbz chassis

    2500 Suburban would be a lot less work..

    06 Tahoe body lbz chassis

    you would only need that body lift if you stayed with the tahoe frame...since you are using the truck frame those elevations are already built in..

    yeah...just use all of that from the firewall forward..
