    The switches can also be suspect. Look into adding relays.

    Rooftop AC for Overlanding

    I would look into the old campers with the van front ends - they have smaller units than the huge CDL-required rigs. My uncle had one and it would freeze meat if you wanted it too. I bet there are MANY types and sizes in that club to choose from. You're definitely in custom-mod territory.

    GMC Grill

    There was when I posted it. It can be a lead as to 'will they get more' or was this a freak find too.

    GMC Grill

    First time I've seen them in a looong time. Quite reasonable too. Wouldn't expect OE quality but the price is good. Dunno.

    GMC Grill

    So the tooling is out there - wonder where and how much to procure it? Alot less than $25k me thinks.

    GMC Grill

    So sell it for ALOT more. Would STILL sell. Wonder what the tooling cost would be and where you would have it made?

    Bed Bolts?

    I was looking at the threaded ends too.....aftermarkets are usually squared off and the OE's are tapered.

    Bed Bolts?

    Those 3 with the shorter shoulder dont look OE (to me anyways). Wonder if a ghost of owners-past swapped some out?

    High Pressure Gas shooting out filler hole

    FOUR charcoal canisters? Never saw more than one on anything. Can you blow air through the vent hose to make sure it doesn't have a blockage upstream like a spiders nest, etc?

    How do yall ground your Alternator?

    I would use an insulated wire - never saw a strap used unless it was from a wiper motor or block to the chassis.

    What is you headlight setup

    I've got the Hella e-code lamps to install - they use the H4 and H1 bulbs. Have heard of some using HIDs or LEDs in them, but no idea how well they work. Cibie was the very best for pattern and light, but they are long gone now.

    1980 z28 rescue

    I love these older Z's. Curious: when you swap a BB into one, do you have to change the front suspension at all for the extra weight? Or is it close enough?

    Unusual radio issue

    I had an issue like this on a car I was flipping years ago - turned out to be a sticking relay.

    steering box bolts

    They remind me of the spacers on my transmission cross member. IIRC those were for torque yield or bolt stretch. (?!)

    USA-1 Seat Covers

    When you do your own upholstery, does that include making new foam cushions also? I really like the 96-97 bench style with the headrests and fold down armrest. Always wondered if that could just be fabbed/incorporated into my original rather than messing with a 60/40 setup. There's a REALLY...

    USA-1 Seat Covers

    Last time I spoke to Randy he said their stuff was made in Taiwan but they wanted to move it all back to the US. That was almost 4yrs ago. Apparently they aren't any quicker with that either.

    Question on battery/starter

    Probably a stupid idea, but have you had the battery tested? The first battery I bought for my truck (Interstate from Costco) acted similarly. I took the battery to a shop to be tested and they said it was reading 1 - possibly 2 bad cells. Thing wasn't a month old.

    Wipers have one speed

    Go to the link - post #5, step 18. Shows what I used.

    Headlights upgrade.

    I have the Hella setup like that and low beams have 3 prongs and the high beams have just 2.
