    What have you done to your square lately??

    lay a heavy coat of citristrip on it. Then put saran wrap over it to keep it wet. Come back 24 hours later and see what you got. Can find it at walmart. Get one bottle and test if in doubt.

    Radiator condenser combo.

    really.....why? Cost? I've been sticking with brass because I've got a radiator shop up the road. i need to start stock piling them I think lol.

    Radiator condenser combo.

    There is a post somewhere that shows how to upgrade the radiator using 88+'ish truck radiators. Some even included oil cooling. These were still copper/brass. @bucket @HotRodPC @89Suburban for a refresher hopefully. I don't like plastic tanks personally, so I stuck with original on my swap...

    Power window motor?

    if in doubt, run a positive and negative directly to the motor connection from a 12V battery. then reverse the wires just in case while ur there. Helps if you have an old plug to sacrifice to extend it out the door.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I made one out of pvc and a pvc pipe (removable) stopper/plug. Works awesome.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Try citristrip from walmart on a spot or 2. Brush the gel on a little thick, then put saran wrap over it so it doesn't dry out. Let it sit over night. Then try to brush/scrape it off. [edit] if it's verticle, you may have to tape the saran wrap to the body so the gel won't flow off it if you...

    Ignition Resistance Wire-Needed or Nah

    good to know, never delt with points. Sounds like he needs to find another source for power then? [edit] I see and understand your answer now lol.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    @HotRodPC I know you put this up, but damn it's been years and probably hard to find. Thoughts? Might have been caster/camber though. Be a nice refresher lol.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    6x9's look 2-way and not 3-way? Just curious.

    Ignition Resistance Wire-Needed or Nah

    Also, another way to test the wire thats getting hot is to ohm it out to the battery. DISCONNECT THE BATTERY FIRST. Then put one meter lead on the positive connector that connects to the battery, then put the other lead on that wire thats getting hot. It should be close to zero with the key...

    Ignition Resistance Wire-Needed or Nah

    sounds like you have a wire/connection thats about to break. Imagine it like too small a wire for something that draws a lot of power. Follow it back and check for wire pinches, corrosion....anything that would cause it to not be a solid run. Also, you might be running too much on that one...

    83 K5 Blazer LS swap issue

    if you have the range selector unplugged on the trans, there's 2 wires I believe that need to be connected together on the ECM. Check the LT1swap chart and it should say it. Something in the nature if "if no range sensor" do this.

    Ls swap

    shouldn't he be able to cut the shaft on the 2wd shaft after removing the tail housing? Then get a trans adapter from a 4x4 4l60e.

    Engine lift points

    Love the one I got. The screws are kept on the plate and you pull out what you need. Solid and secure to the block. Nothing wrong with chains, but there's no hunting bolts/washers and setting height of chain when using a block plate. I would NOT use a plate that bolts where a carb is...

    Removing engine and trans.

    yeh I need to get one lol

    Removing engine and trans.

    Good info. I always start up front and save the drive shaft/crossmember out for last as I know it's gonna leak fluid out the trans. At that point it's a "lets get it out quick" for less of a mess.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Been there....leaks again. Going with another option. Might even install sprayers on the cowl.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Washer fluid reservoir leaking again. I had to try this. The stock pump isn't strong enough to pull fluid with this setup. I'll probably go with a 2 liter aluminum tank from Amazon for $30 and a different pump. Then again, might just upgrade the pump and let it fly.

    Most affordable shipping for body panels?

    We have a guy that I found on Craigslist. He supplies the body shops as well as the DIY'selfer. You'd be surprised, check craigslist to see if you have someone in your area that does the same. His prices are 5-10% higher than online (before shipping) and he delivers free to our local Hardee's...

    LS swap fuel system

    What make/model pump are dependable these days? I put in the ACDelco EP381 and they want $160+ for it now. [edit] this was added to a 87 burb sender/tank Little hijack, sorry OP, but it's for your benefit as well.

    K20 Suburban Flaming River tilt column (also Wolff Engineering bearing)

    I was really close to buying one, but I reminded myself that the issue I had with mine coming loose was because the previous owner didn't install the stock replacement correctly. So I, not knowing any better, installed it the same way. Same issue. After I looked at it and figured out the...
