    What have you done to your square lately??

    Sprayed some aluminum brightener on my rims to get the brake dust caked on off. Then hit with a pressure washer. 3 times and it's all gone. Now I have to polish them. Ugh

    QA1 coil over suspension

    They have a pretty nice upgrade for old chevy trucks. I might have to look into this.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    New headlights rubber coated ceramic connectors came today along with sidemarker sockets and lenses. The other lens were faded out bad. Look much better now. Haven't used the ceramic connector yet but side markers are on. I really like the ceramic connectors seem good quality and were not...

    Ford Trash Talk Thread lol

    I've had 2 friends that always drove chevy trucks up until about 3 years ago. They both bought new Ford trucks. I don't know why because I didn't ask. I just give them $hit about it every chance I get. Lol I do have to say their cars are better than their trucks. I've had an 83 mustang and 95 t...

    Headlights and blinker problems. Again!!

    Noticed also that when checking with a test light(clipped to ground) that the tan or green wire lit the bulb better than the other one. I'll have to look again to remember the color. One was dim and one was Brite. So I'm guessing it's getting more power to one of the wires. If I click on Brite...

    Headlights and blinker problems. Again!!

    This helped me get the leds to work. When I just plugged it in no work so I moved the ground to the middle prong ant it lit up to top two lights but, the lower lights don't work. No power when I turn bright lights on or not. The lower lights are just two wires also not three like the top...

    Headlights and blinker problems. Again!!

    Y'all ain't gonna believe this. Ordered the 4x6 led headlights and they came in today. So I pulled the front grill out to make it easier to test and also install the new leds. Pulled the blinker sockets out and set grill aside. Noticed they had a clear bulb in the Dr side. So I put a new amber...

    Rised white letter or blackwall

    Be an advertisement for tire companies? The people who turn their letters inside because they don't wanna advertise tire brand probably leave that stupid dealership badge or sticker on their car and the license plate frame too. Lol Always white letters out!!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Wasn't really planning on doing this today but, I Sanded the Rusty parts on the hood. It came off fairly quickly. So I did another one and another one until I had done half the hood. Lol So I checked and only had about a third of a can of primer so I stopped and sprayed the bare metal so in...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Well, took it to HEB and either the torque converter or transmission is acting strange. It was vibrating and bolging when I gave it gas. I hope it's the tc rather than transmission. Both are new. Very few miles. The tc was a 2200 one which may have been a little bit high because it wouldn't...

    What set of spark plugs wires is this?

    I really like this set of plug wires. It fits perfectly with the headers. It's all 90 degrees ends except for #3 and #4 which has the straight ends. I've looked but can't find them. Hope someone m8ght know about this.

    Throttle cable way too long

    The new one came in today and it's the same length. So no good. My 82 with 454 and quadrajet is straight and not looped. Wonder if I can find a shorter one? Or different cable bracket? New one is 15 inches between rubber grommets fir firewall and bracket. Need one about 10 inches between...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    The reason I don't buy snap-on is because I think there are just as good of tools out there for fraction of the cost. I'm more partial to craftsman. My dad always bought craftsman for personal use at the house. I like the feel of their wrenches. Snap-on wrenches are too thin for me. I like the...
