    Most affordable shipping for body panels?

    That was a weird one for me. LMC only wanted $150 to ship two 8 foot bedsides to Massachusetts, which I did, but $1200 to ship a bed floor.

    About 1970 RPM at 70mph. That's the exact setup I have. Works great.

    Jegs as well. LMC quoted me about $1,200 to ship an 8 foot bed floor that cost $900. I got it from Jegs for $1,000, shipped for $178. Definitely check around.

    Glove box lock

    I imagine if I had a picture of the original owner at the dealership picking up the truck in 1981, with his grandmother standing next to him holding up a newspaper from that day, all while sticking the round key into the glove box lock, someone would tell me that it ain't original. Man, that's...

    Glove box lock

    Only have that one door/glovebox key. I realized the more I mess with this lock, the higher the chance I scratch my perty black freshly painted glove box door. So locksmith it is on Thursday. And I'll get some fresh keys while I'm there.

    Glove box lock

    I've owned this truck since 1992, I'm the second owner, and I still know the original owner. 1981 Custom Deluxe (now it's all custom redone). This locking box is definitely original, uses the same key as the doors, at least it did til I reassembled it yesterday. I noticed today that the one...

    Glove box lock

    So I'm in the process of reinstalling my locking glove box after disassembling it a long time ago. I got the lock and latch reinstalled on the box using the correct key for the lock. However, now the latch is locked in the closed position, and the knob is locked and the key won't turn it. It is...

    Trailering your square body

    Towed my 1981 C10 about 90 miles to the body shop, with my Ford Expedition. No issues. But when it came time to bring her home a year (and a lotta $$ later), I took no chances...

    Transmission Upgrade?

    I remember Mythbusters did this on two different episodes back in the day because people didn't believe the results the first time. Driving with an open tailgate gave the worst mileage, and driving with a closed tailgate gave the same mileage as having a bed cover. The open bed with a closed...

    Windshield washer motor questions

    Your wiper motor is on the firewall and that is the washer fluid pump on the bottle. When you hit the washer function the wipers should start moving, and the pump motor should turn on for the time you're holding wash.

    Brights pop fuse

    @Ricko1966 @RustyPile You guys are getting awfully worked up for a guy who already solved his problem. He's got a Painless harness, did Painless build all their harnesses wrong?

    Brights pop fuse

    Ha well 1 hour from posting about the problem to solving it is still pretty good. My guess was gonna be that the floor dimmer switch was shorting out.
