I am also one that likes the earlier interiors over the 96-98.
Just bought a Black wild patina OBS Short Bed... and a 74' Blk/Silver/Blk Cheyenne... it's on now. am almost finished with my 99' OBS SUBURBAN... lowered 6/7.5" !
Love thischannel and Robby's Truck channel! KUDO'S gentlemen!
Respectfully, Seth
One of my favorite shows on TH-cam! 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!
Haha. Thanks for watching! Sounds like your truck is going to be killer.
Love the build. You blew my budget with the purchase. 😂 Can’t wait to see where it goes.
Love the tie in between Jdm and obs I came in the game with Honda too !!
Good stuff Jesse. That knob definitely gives me Spoon duracon vibes. I dig it. Excited for the progression of this thing!
That column is very cool. Diggin’ the direction on this one.
Man, I freaking love the garage build
Thank you!
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.
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.
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.
They will be a popular truck but it’s still a little early for there to much support.
Looking forward to more in this series.
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 …
Thanks for following along. But I would suggest you talk to Tick about a shifter.
93 OBS, 5.3, 98mm turbo, TH400. Drag truck.
Perfect!
Love the videos. Now for some of us poor folks my only request is to mention how much these products cost. Keep up the great work.
Great suggestion!
Love what you are doing, would love to show you mine
Shoot me an email!
Love this. You have great vision. I can’t wait to see how this turns out.
Thank you. Having fun with it.
Can’t wait for more level 7 obs parts
This is perfect timing. I’m building my Chevy obs right now. Going from 4x4 to awd.
Very cool!
@@level7motorsports Thanks! Definitely getting inspiration from this channel. Very helpful
Hell yea obs parts coming …
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!
This column is just a few pounds. Much lighter than a stock column!
Loving this series, since you’re going race seats I’ll pay shipping for the SS seats to my place. lol. Those are nice.
Haha. They are already gone.
Right on!
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😅
Very cool. Love the white trucks.
Have fun with those motor mounts...not the same as v8 trucks
Can't wait to see what you do and will we be able to use some of your tips and parts for our obs projects.
Absolutely!
Looking forward to watching. As crazy as it sounds, is there a possibility of numbering the videos so I know if I'm missing one of the series?
They’re all in the Rei video playlist in chronological order. That should help.
You're killing me Jesse!!! Hey i was 100 on the thumbs up... Do i get a prize? Like some NBS builds.
Very interested in this build. I am currently rebuilding my 89 that I purchased new. Have a 6.0 LQ9 with turbo and 4L80E sitting in it. I have put a 14 bolt rear end in it with a 4/6 drop.
So cool that you’ve kept it this whole time.
👍🏽
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.
Yes you can do a Soeedtech chassis with IRS for these trucks.
Why did the original owner swap the interior to a later one? Enjoying your build
They swapped it to the older style interior just out of preference.
You mentioned something a while back about harness bars for squarebodies. Is that still in the works?
Yes we just aren’t the ones doing them. I believe Infinite is going to sell them. More info on them in the future.
Don’t T56s have 2 mounting positions for the shifters? I don’t think it needed to go that far back
Only Magnums have multiple mounting locations.
I see. Thanks!
How did you get the work wheels to fit on the obs !!? Super sick build by the way man !
Just adapter spacers.
I am building a OBS can you give us a link to the harness bar?
Just as soon as they are available I will!
what fuel rails are you running here thanks!
Not sure. Just some eBay stuff.
How nice are the SS seats. Are you selling them
They were a solid B+ but are already sold.
Do a longer videos of all the parts you are putting on not just sponsored parts.
What clutch master is that?
Just stock
I wonder what “fab shop”😂
Haha. I know a guy.

Here's my rag joint video on these trucks.
Very cool. We already sell a complete intermediate steering shaft.
The guy who originally built that truck probably wants to stick his beard in his cnc machine while its running seeing this thing like this.
Please show people basic ways to help people like me to help us make are trucks better. We're broke!!!
Iam normal person I own a 1995truck wanting to make it happen. Already did the belltech supenchen 6 7 drop everything else is stock
We me don't have the money too do what you are doing. But cool video.
They really saw you coming you overpaid for this truck needs ton of work
That's the point...😂
We don't have a fabrication shop. Just saying
but you can go to one and most people who work on cars have welders at home
