    Mystery Coolant leak

    87 TBI R10. I've always noticed a small coolant leak but today I ran to the store and when I got home I realized there was a line of fluid in the driveway and my truck had peed the driveway pretty good. Not sure if the line got there when I was leaving or returning home. Looking under the...

    Lets see your cell phone mount

    I don't have this in my current truck but in my last truck I bought a mount for like $30 that used a foam sticky pad to stick to the front of the dashboard. It was really helpful to use GPS when it was right there as well. There are a ton of mounts like this on Amazon.

    Seems like a good deal in the DFW area

    Checks lots of boxes for me. Guy didn't even really want the truck he bought it as a pair with a vette it say so he might part with it cheaper. https://dallas.craigslist.org/ftw/cto/d/fort-worth-1985-gmc-sierra-classic-1500/7446858299.html

    Popping noise heard & felt when in hard right turn from standing stop

    No idea if it is similar to my issue but for me a rock got down between teh bed and the cab and couldnt' get loose. When I was turning it would pop loud as **** until I figured out what it was and scooped it out. Not saying you have the same issue but check behind the cab just to be sure.

    Yet Another Powerless Truck Question

    Yeah I tested the battery that way and it was fine. The problem is wanting to test something under the truck like the alternator where the lead on the alligator clip won't reach the negative terminal.

    Yet Another Powerless Truck Question

    '87 R10 305 automatic tranny. Lately I've noticed it was *slightly* more difficult to physically turn over the ignition but not had any problems. This morning ran fine. Got in to grab some lunch heard the lightest click as if it was going to do something and then nothing. No interior nor...

    Can't get shit for supplies!

Luckily I did not fcuk up anything that I could not repair (even the handle was broken on the multiport valve that I had to fix) because you...

    Brake Rebuild on an R10

    Thanks, just to make sure I understand - are you suggesting to just change out the pads and clean the backs up or keep the existing pads on there and just clean them up? If it is driving me this crazy I can only imagine how much my neighbors love me lol.

    Is there a better place to post this? Too simple of a question possibly? I would really like to tackle this this weekend.

    Brake Rebuild on an R10

    The rotors were actually in better shape than I expected so I was also considering just keeping the new rotors and replacing the calipers only.

    Brake Rebuild on an R10

    I am tired of hearing the squealing which only seems to be bad in my neighborhood, at night, and when there are people within earshot. Brakes are working great but everything looks original besides I'm sure the pads have been changed. I bought rotors, pads, bearings, and seals because I...
