    Methods for getting steering wheel straight

    OK, guys. I replaced my draglink and adjuster, as well as the left tie rod and right tie rod ends and adjuster. I got everything greased up with full synthetic grease, and then I adjusted the draglink until my steering wheel was straight. This all made a huge difference in how the truck...

    How does the oil gauge function? Mine is pegged to the right

    I got this all fixed and working, thanks to you guys! The old sending unit looked crusty, so at about $30 for a nice new one from NAPA, I figured what the hell. I took the old one off (which incidentally, the PO tighten down way too hard because some brass on the stem was squished). I also ran...

    Suspension / Steering Parts

    I just got done replacing all those parts. You wouldn't believe how much better my truck handles now. I wouldn't recommend LMC for this. First of all, the adjuster sleeve on the drag link was the wrong size. Second, I had to pay quite a bit in shipping. Third, they sent my left tie rod and...

    Best all terrain tire for your square

    I just happened to notice they make a BFG Mud Terrain/AT KM3, that has a more aggressive looking sidewall and overall better appearance than that new model that has the squares on the sidewall. They seem promising...

    RETRO-Mod: Jeep intermediate steering shaft

    My truck is a 1980 GMC K25, but I'm running a 1976 tilt square body column. I did this mod with the Jeep shaft. I had heard on the Amazon reviews and elsewhere, that you need to grind part of the shaft on the column end, so the bolt will push all the way though to the threads on the other side...

    LED Dome Lights?

    I used LMC's kit that comes with the LED bulb and the more clear lense. Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    How does hood to cowl seal attach?

    May as well. Pretty cheap and easy to take care of Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    Correct. Kick panel vents. I can't find any explanation anywhere that shows how the air flows and ends up at the vents on the kick panel Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    I got the cowl screen and the hood to cowl rubber seal from LMC Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    How does hood to cowl seal attach?

    I got mine installed. I figured out a little trick. I used the side of a flathead screwdriver to press on each plastic button to get them to push in. Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    Cool. I recently replaced the screen and the rubber seal, and while I had it apart, I made sure it was clean down in there. Once it goes down the cowl, where does it go from there, before it ends up at the side floor vents? Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    Do you know where the inlet is for the vent, and then how or routes? I can't seem to find a schematic anywhere Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Side air vents. Should each side blow equally?

    I'm referring to those floor side vents that just let in fresh air when you're driving at speed. On my truck, the passenger side blows quite a bit more than the drivers side. Is that normal, or is something maybe plugged in there? Besides directly behind the flap that opens (which I have...

    Drag link adjuster. Proper way to tighten?

    OK, I got this all buttoned up. I ended up buying a new adjuster sleeve from NAPA, and it worked perfectly. Amazing how much easier shit is when the parts aren't defective and/or cheap. I think LMC is fine for most parts other than mechanical stuff that can be purchased at NAPA and elsewhere...

    Drag link adjuster. Proper way to tighten?

    The stock one is a no go. It's way too rusted on and nasty. I could only get one side to unscrew. The other one is cemented on. I'd have to mangle it to even attempt to get it off. I went back and tried the clamps in all different positions. Nothing works. These are made in lovely China, by "OE...

    Drag link adjuster. Proper way to tighten?

    I got them from LMC. I'll have to look at the box for the name brand and country. I may just use my stock adjuster sleeve Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Drag link adjuster. Proper way to tighten?

    It's possible, although I ordered everything from LMC. Incidentally, yours don't look lined up with the center gap in the threaded sleeve? In fact one is in a different spot than the other. Maybe I just need to use my old adjuster sleeve? Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk

    Drag link adjuster. Proper way to tighten?

    You have more space between the ears. I've tightened mine to where they touch, and it's still not enough to tighten it down Sent from my SM-N975U1 using Tapatalk
