    Radiator Support Body Mounts

    Just to wrap this thread.... @PrairieDrifter - you are correct. I found all my new mounts - the rubber is the same and the only difference is the length of the bolts. The radiator support bolts are longer.

    Headlamp Adjusters

    I'd still like to know what the difference between the green and the white is. 2 different PNs so gotta be something - unless one was a revision. ?! Whenever there is a self-tapping screw into plastic, I mic the inside flute of the screw and then use a drill that size to open up the plastic...

    Radiator Brackets

    The rad I have is a 3 core - Champion CC161. Maybe someone has already installed one and knows what works? The originals -might- actually work....just at first glance they dont look like it and everything is still too packed away to easily size it up.

    Radiator Brackets

    Your brackets look like mine - was yours a SB or a BB originally?

    Radiator Brackets

    @RanchWelder I think those look like what I have. @PrairieDrifter - So that panel WILL fit mine??? Fan shroud wont be an issue as I'm going with dual electric fans. Now where to find a nice one...... THX fellas!

    Radiator Brackets

    That top plate is awesome. Always liked those. Probably wont fit my 85 but that doesn't mean one cant be fabbed. Mine are 2 different brackets - right and left. The original radiator was on the wussy side as far as thickness (IMO). I got a Champion....3 (or 4?) core and by just looking at them...

    Radiator Support Body Mounts

    I actually ran a tap through everything to straighten and clean the threads once I got the originals out (they needed it too). They'll get lathered good with anti seize or some synthetic grease before going back together.

    Radiator Brackets

    Did GM make more than one style of radiator brackets for the squares? I'm using a thicker radiator than what came with the truck and if these dont fit, was wondering if perhaps the BB's or diesels had something different / larger or am I fabbing something up again? Thx

    Headlamp Adjusters

    My originals all came out intact and in good shape. I just figured being almost 40yrs old, I'd replace them while all is apart. A seller on feebay had 2 boxes of them - in OE GM packages - still new that I picked up. But there are 2 different PNs - one for green and one for white, and I have yet...

    Headlamp Adjusters

    @Keith Seymore Re: 1985 K20 w/Quad lamps. Any idea why some of the bulb adjusters are green and some are white? All mine are white except one on the passenger side, which is green - but the PO was a savage so who knows what went where. They do mount a tad different (one is recessed - the other...

    Power mirrors for Squarebody

    You can adapt any switch you want but the one that was actually used in a square was from a 91 Suburban - same switch as in the mid 80s to mid 90s Buick Centuries, the Olds versions, etc. This is part 1 of 2. Guy does a decent job of describing it. I think in part 2 he shows the switch.

    Radiator Support Body Mounts

    I have the mounts - bought real rubber ones from (cant remember ATM) but took a good while to get them and they are every bit OE quality). LMC shows them as 2 different PNs for the bolts and the rubber cushions. I would guess the rad support bolts are longer and the rad support rubber a tad...

    Radiator Support Body Mounts

    Having a blonde moment..... IIRC the 2 donut mounts that go under the radiator support are different from the cab mounts - yes? If so, in what way? Or were the bolts just a different length? Or both? I'm trying to collect all the randomly stashed parts and brackets to start assembling the...

    Wipers have one speed

    The parking switch easily and heavily corrodes. Yours is the same as mine. See this for an inside look at the whole thing before tearing it apart. https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/85-91-wiper-motor-rebuild.36321/

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Been skimming over this so if someone already answered, then a mod can delete this. These are available at the hardware store <$1 for decks. Can flatten out the spikes and they work perfectly. Doing this with 2 holes in my bed that rounded out. IIRC its a 1/2" size - the largest that was in my...
