    How often does a 10 ply tire break a belt?

    Since you guys have some really good chemistry going it should work out fine.

    Front bottoms out

    I just saw your question about the springs. I have Western Chassis 3” drop springs.

    Brand Recommendations for front end components.

    Maybe $600-$700 if I remember correctly but that didn't include springs. The only thing that didn't get replaced were the actual tie rods. Pitman arm, idler, sway bar bushings and all tie rod ends were replaced. Of course the control arms came with ball joints and shafts installed. It...

    Brand Recommendations for front end components.

    I used Moog on mine. I found I was money ahead buying all four A-arms with ball joints and bushings already installed.

    Just purchased a 76 gmc crew dually- it needs help

    Sierra Grande is like a Scottsdale but was the highest trim level until 75 I believe.

    Just purchased a 76 gmc crew dually- it needs help

    If that all matches it’s a Sierra Classic with a mistake on the SPID. It’s the same option YE9.

    Just purchased a 76 gmc crew dually- it needs help

    It’s impossible. Does the VIN on the glovebox match the VIN on the truck? You’re going to need to start posting some pictures.

    It looks like it had the trim when new. https://www.gmheritagecenter.com/docs/gm-heritage-archive/historical-brochures/chevrolet-trucks/1976-Chevrolet-Truck-PCK-2.pdf

    Front bottoms out

    Are you sure the springs aren’t cut down stock springs? Maybe look for a heavier drop spring. My truck is lowered 6” in the front and I don’t have much of a problem, the ride is very similar to stock.

    76 Chevy Crew Cab Dually (NOT mine) $2,500

    The suburban looks a bit like the old Starcraft conversion to me. There were a few of them around my area back in the day. Some had raised roofs if I remember correctly.

    Just purchased a 76 gmc crew dually- it needs help

    What does the sticker in the glovebox say? What trim level is it?

    Are any sway bar mods needed after lowering?

    I'm still fighting mine. I need to get some more camber in it and I can't convince the alignment guys to do it so I'll probably have to do it myself and hope for the best.

    Are any sway bar mods needed after lowering?

    I didn't have to do anything to my front sway bar and I dropped 6". I did have to modify the brackets on the rear sway bar and install shorter sway bar links.

    Places to offroad in Upper Midwest

    I believe there’s a park just north of Detroit, south of Mt Holly. I’m not sure if trucks can use it but I know a filly who rides his trials bike there. I think he said it was built by Ford for a Bronco commercial or something. It does have big letters that spell out bronco on the side of the...

    kick down blues

    Just send the seller a private message. I’ve bought a couple things from members and we either used Venmo or cash when we met in person for the parts.

    Headers question

    You'll want headers for a GM-A body car, i.e. Chevelle. They will be above the bottom of the frame rail and then your next issue is the transmission crossmember. You may or may not have to change that if it doesn't allow the exhaust pipe to be above the bottom of the frame rail also.

    Move the seat back!

    Anytime that's convenient but there is a cover charge so bring some good old American money with you!

    Your cab is too small.

    Bumper Pull Camp trailer!

    I used search tempest and just looked in Ohio region and set the upper limit on price at $3000. I didn’t spend much time at it but at least there’s hope for you.

    87 K20 TBI 350........issues :(

    I can’t help you there, I have zero experience with that setup but it should be easy enough to see if the injectors are just dumping fuel and see if it’s a signal issue or an injector issue.

    87 K20 TBI 350........issues :(

    Sounds like my junk when a vacuum line came off. I don't know what those have for vacuum lines but I'd check those first because it's easy. Or a bad gasket under the throttle body?
