Blazin' 93 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Alright so I've done some searching and I can't find all of the information I'm looking for. I have an intimidator ss which I'm sure most know is an 06 and 2 wheel drive. After having it for a few years I love the truck but I'm more of a 4x4 fan but I love the power and style of the sss. So when a buddy of mine did a sas on his z71 it got me thinking. How difficult would it be to swap in the differential, swap the back of the 4l80e to 4x4 and run some type of auto transfer case. This way I could still have the fun of smoking the tires but will still be able to hook. (Just to note I'm not after speed and 1/4 times.. more for the fun of the truck.) After the swap id like to slightly lift it. So who can help me? What all is needed? How hard/$ is the swap. I'm looking for information and I know there are many opposed to my idea. If i wanted a pure speed truck id have got an rest. I know you guys know these trucks. Help is greatly appreciated especially reading this long ass post. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddmj Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Just to warn you. You are about to get some serious flames over this post. Nobody on this sight is interested in lifting these trucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rickyrick562 Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 dont lift an ss especially not an intimidator. if you want a lifted truck just trade the ss in for one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blazin' 93 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 (edited) Im aware of that and i don't care its a truck, not a vette or a camaro. Ive always used it as a truck, what i need is information from where people know these trucks. Not to be rude but im not looking for opinions. If you dont agree with my plans thats fine, im just really in need of some know how.

Blazin' 93 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 And ive explored that route with trading it in or selling it. price isnt worth it to take the loss. if i got rid of it id get a nnbs 4x4 vmax ltz... nothing else.

Blazin' 93 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 jesus I DONT GIVE 2 SHITS WHAT YOU THINK ABOUT IT. did i say that enough.

Blazin' 93 Posted December 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Alright then. i thought you guys knew these trucks better than them right? and thats the whole point of these websites. oh and ballin bitch, **** off. Ill bet you know so much besides how to speek your "feelings" awww... i dont like my shit like every one and their grandma. The 4x4 community will break their backs to help out someone willing to do some one-off shit. This place is pointless unless you fall in line, that aint me. **** this website, there are 0 mature people. dont worry bout me bein back around.

tayldss Posted December 4, 2012 Report Share Posted December 4, 2012 Might get more help from a 4x4 truck site... notice there's no "off road" section on this forum. Intimidator SSS's are hard to come by... you're lookin at a lot of work. If you're not lookin for speed but 4x4 with SS styling, why not just get a 4x4 and make a clone? You would get more for your truck before you mess with it. Don't give me crap for my "opinion" either - I don't care what you do and I use my SS as it is too- a truck. I'm no help in the how-to part. good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
