    Remove 3" lift and return to stock

    I really like the direction you’re going with your k10. Reverting back to stock specs is pretty cool. I briefly skimmed over the leaf springs at Summit Racing and they do have several options for your truck, however I’m not sure if any of them are factory specs. It would need further...

    Can someone school me on carpet

    I’ve done both molded carpet and unmolded. The molded carpet set was so much easier to do and it looked better. The unmolded carpet had a lot of trimming and three-dimensional work to do and I wasn’t really happy with the finished product the entire time I owned the truck. My recommendation is...

    New to the forum with question about 76

    Welcome to the forum. I’m just down the road from you in Debary. 76 is one of my favorite years for squares. Post some pics, we’d all love to see it. I think it may be hard to verify the 454 unless there is some dealer installed documentation/verification to back it up. A lot of dealer upgrades...

    Need one 3” deep trim ring for chevy 15x8, 6 lug rally wheel

    Looking for one deep dish 3” trim ring for my 15x8, 6 lug GM rally wheel “spare tire” project I’m working on. It can be a brushed or chrome ring in used/driver condition. I already have the center cap, just need the trim ring to finish it off. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Coolant Temperature sensor

    I’d say go back and get the correct ACDelco part for your truck. I tried an aftermarket temp sensor and my temp gauge would peg out to the max hot immediately at startup even when the truck was cold. I believe the problem was the new aftermarket temp sensor was a different amperage. I had to...

    tire width vs wheel size

    7” & 8” rims will handle the 275/60. My brother and I both ran that type of setup. The pic is of my brothers 71 Cheyenne with 275/60 on all four corners.

    The Elusive 1984 GMC Grille

    There is one for sale in Florida. The ad says $50 and up depending on the grill. The 84 grill looks like it needs some work. I thought of going to get the 75 grill.

    Post a pic of your first car or restoration!

    My 15yr old son just got his first 2weeks ago. A 1998 GMC Sierra sle, 5.7l with an auto. He did the negotiating with the 83yr old owner on the price and we’ve been wrenching on it and driving it around town on a learners permit. He is super proud of it and excited to work on it.

    Post a pic of your first car or restoration!

    1976 Custom Deluxe K10. I got it at 14yrs old with a blown motor. By 16yrs old it had a rebuilt motor, new doors and fenders and redone interior. For my high school graduation gift my parents had it painted for me. Sadly, I sold it a couple years later to help pay for college.

    Lift kit

    I went with a ProComp 2.5” lift and up two sizes on the tires (31” to a 33”) for 4.5” of overall lift. I don’t use mine for off road and I wanted it to still fit in a standard height garage opening. It rides fine on pavement but I later added a ProComp double shock stabilizer to the front...

    Brown Tire Issue???

    When I treated the tires, I did treat into the lugs. I treated the tires in the garage, but whenever I pull it out of the garage and into the sun the tire slowly turns brown. I didn’t have the problem until I used the product I have currently. Tires are on the newer side and the truck is not...

    Brown Tire Issue???

    I really think it’s related to my crappy tire shine. My tires don’t turn brown until I pull the truck out of the garage and let it sit in the sun. I’m going to wash them down good to get the crap off of them and put a better brand of shine on them

    Brown Tire Issue???

    I have a reoccurring issue with my tires. They turn brown in the sun after I’ve put a tire gloss on them. If I leave my truck out for a long time the entire side of the tire is brown. I know it’s the crap brand I’m using. Is there a brand that will not give me brown tire when it sits in the sun?

    1977 c10 worth one owner 63k miles

    I looked on FB Marketplace for my area and the best I could find in that configuration was $6500 for a decent looking running/driving truck. I think based off of pictures you posted, the seller may be asking a bit on the high side.

    1977 c10 worth one owner 63k miles

    The price doesn’t seem unreasonable based off of the description. Pictures would help in getting better input from the community here. Low miles is a huge plus and they are only original once. For me, I’d be all over an original low miles unmolested square for around that price. 7500 is a good...

    I don’t mind paying for shipping if the seller doesn’t mind the hassle boxing and shipping.

    Needed One, 6x5.5 GM/Chevy Rally wheel

    I’ve been looking for a single 6X5.5lug, 15X8 GM/Chevy 4X4 Rally wheel for awhile now. Seems the only thing I can find are full sets for sale. I just need one for a spare tire for my 75 Sierra Grande. It can be an ugly looking wheel, but it just needs to be true. I plan on refinishing whatever...

    Value of a 400/402 big block?

    I recommend picking it up, even if you just flip it for profit. I had one in my old 72 Custom Camper and I loved it.

    Phoenix Graphics tailgate decal installed

    I’ve been wanting to finish off the tailgate GMC logo with paint/pinstripe but I moved away from the pinstriper that I trusted. I saw that Phoenix Graphics had a decal in several colors, so i ordered black to match the other stripes on the truck. The kit was available on Amazon, EBay and at...
