    just bought a '87 Silverado V10 - needs tires -

    I have some 31x10.5x15s on my '74 C1500, but I've heard of people putting up to 33's with out any rubbing. With 35's, that's where you start trimming the corners of the fenders. Nice truck by the way.

    Will my 12" clutch fit on the stock flywheel?

    The problem would,t be the diameter, but the bolt pattern for the pressure plate. 168 is the largest they come. I remember when I upgraded from a 10 in clutch to an 11 in my truck, and I ran into a problem installing the pressure plate on my old flywheel (I did actually have a correct flywheel...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    After my stupid aftermarket turn signal switch broke, I improvised in this one. It's just a 3 way toggle switch (a very high quality one) and part of an old antenna crimped over it. Now I have to get a couple af diodes in order to make the brake lights work correctly.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I used O'l Yeller as a support vehicle as I drove the Studebaker to the tire shop.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I killed bambi's mom on my way home from work today. A nice head start for deer season. Slightly rearranged my fender/knocked out my light, but I was going like 55mph. I slammed hard on those brakes.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got some bumper stickers, and some nice bias plys for the Studebaker today. I paid $60 for all 4, no dryrot, amazing deal.

    AuroraGirl is buying another square... is it a good one?

    No, you can have the 170 flathead 6 and borg warner automatic drive transmission from my '51 Studebaker. That ought to move a big truck like that.

    Hello!

    32k for a square? Mine is worth at least 45, but I'd sell it to you for 40. Yea it's only been rolled once, and each cylinder has at least 80 psi (practically no wear). $40k Ferum But seriously you could get one hell of a truck for that money it depends on if you want a full on restomod daily...

    I'd ask the Studebaker Forum, but they aren't so keen to help.

    I've been working the past few days trying to get my '51 Studebaker on the road, but I've run into a road block having to do with the starter. This piece of casting broke off and I don't know what to do. They don't make new starters, and rebuilt ones are like $400, so what do I do? I just...

    Broken AC. Now what?

    I'd duct tape over where the condenser goes, put in a new heater core and call it a day (I literially did exactly that on my '74 GMC earlier today except mine doesn't have A/C). If it were my truck in Illinois I'd be trying my dammed best to fix that A/C, but I guess that A/C is not really that...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Had the same thing happen to my '95 Suburban, only I was 4 hours from home. About 6 hours later, and a blown brake line I made it home.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Chrome Gets You Home! I'm going to try and run this motor through the winter despite being absolute junk. Even after rebuilding the cylinder head, the built in smoke screen hasn't changed. It at least runs decent and idles smooth now that it doesn't have any burnt valves anymore. I'm already...

    I'm selling the Busurban!

    I'd love to get one to absolutely destroy, but I guess I blame them for single handedly destroying the american car market.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    Though that would be funny, it does come on when I turn the ignition on.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    Honestly, I don't understand either. It might be because I wired the neutral saftey switch to be in neutral at all times so the truck would start. Since it thinks it's in neutral, it doesn't care what's going on with the Trans.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    I'm actually getting ready to sell the truck, and I just wanted it to have a working speedometer before I do.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    I hooked up the TV cable and it shifts fine, as well as downshifts. The engine runs good and is totally driveable (it is my daily driver). With the 3.42 gears in the in the rear, it also goes on the interstate fine without OD.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    I knew it was a 4l60e, and I already did the swap about a month ago. It runs perfectly fine, and I don't even have a check engine light.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    I got all worked up for nothing, a few good hits and it seemed to come a bit loose, and I eventually got it off after half an hour of fenageling. Thanks for the sugguestion.

    Help! What the hell am I supposed to?

    I recently swapped the transmission in my 1995 Chevrolet Suburban from a blown up 4l60e to a th350. Everything bolted up fine (Th350 with the 9 in tail housing) but I obviously couldn't get the speedometer working since it was mechanical while my Burb needs an electronic one. I decided to swap...

    700r4 locked up in gear.

    I got a feeling that they are taking you for a ride. Pretty much every time me or anyone I know has had to deal with a transmission shop, they just say you need a rebuild. No 3rd/4th? - Rebuild. Leaking pan gasket? - Rebuild Bad Transmission Mount? - Rebuild Dirty Fluid? - Rebuild Bad...
