    What master cylinder do you have? If original, will the port for the wheel cylinders supply enough fluid for the rear disc calipers?

    Trailer Hitch - Factory Step Bumper

    I’ve got two receiver hitches for squares, one was a factory hitch from my 88 R30, the other I believe is a U haul one I got off a truck in a bone yard, so good used ones are out there. Both came off trucks with factory step bumpers. I need to work on one of them, as I now have a drop bumper...

    Folding outer door skin lip

    Work slow, like bend 1/8” all the way around, then another 1/8” all the way, etc its time consuming, but will help keep from stretching it in spots. (If that makes since.

    1995 454 tbi fuel pump & pressure recommendations

    Is the 95 still TBI? Or going carb? If still tbi, you are good with the current pump, as the tbi has the regulator built in it

    350 TBI FUEL PUMP

    I would go with a 1996-up Vortec pump (ep381) because of the flow rate. The original TBI pump (ep386) barely flowed enough to support the 4.3/5.0 engines, much less the 5.7/7.4 engines. And before anyone says “but that is a high pressure pump” remember, the pump is capable of producing a higher...

    350 TBI needs starting fluid

    I just worked on an 88 that was the same, crank with starting fluid and run fine afterwards. On it, it turned out to be a faulty MAP sensor, but I checked all the other systems to make sure none of them had an issue either. To check a MAP sensor - There are 3 wires going to the sensor. 5v...

    Extended Brake Hoses

    When I lifted my 84 k10, I used brake hoses from an 88 c2500 7200lb gvw truck. If I remember right, the fronts were 4” longer than the originals on my 84, and the rear was about 3-1/2” longer. Direct bolt ins and available at most any parts store.
