    What should I include in my emergency tool set?

    Some sort of fire starter...just in case you get tired of it all :)

    does anyone know for sure and have pics of 75k wheels

    Wow...Mississippi doesn't care what it looks like...as long as it meets the age requirement. They don’t even do an inspection...no need to even bring the vehicle.

    1986 C10- Is it reliable enough for a daily driver?

    I had to replace the battery in my ‘18 Chevy the other day. It was a pain in the ass because I had to loosen the coolant reservoir just to be able to pull the battery out. Not to mention all the electronic crap attached to the top of it. It’s way more simple to work on my C10 and, for the most...

    1986 C10- Is it reliable enough for a daily driver?

    If I was going to try and sell it for 14k I’d at least make sure there wasn’t any dust on it!

    Best tire on a budget

    Mine are 15x6...and I probably won’t put on 100 miles in a month. Being in Mississippi it doesn’t snow and if it gets cold enough to have ice I won’t be driving it anyway. The only reason I put the current tires on it was so I could move it to the shop,aka the front yard, so I could work on the...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Stopped by the old shop on some property I hunt and grabbed a few things. Don’t know jack about welding but I grabbed it anyway.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    After replacing the water pump and thermostat I put a new radiator in...now it runs at the temp it’s supposed to.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    After I changed the thermostat yesterday the truck pushed to about 220. I thought either the fan clutch or water pump was going bad. Took the fan off a ‘77 and that didn’t help any. I’ll install the water pump tomorrow after it gets here and go from there. Old fan New fan

    Best tire on a budget

    195/75/15...I won’t be changing the wheels. I’m trying to keep it as original as possible but I’m not a fan of the 195 tires...they just look weird to me.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Put some new hoses and a thermostat in today. The old one was horrid but according to my temp gauge it still worked

    Best tire on a budget

    Help me find a decent tire for this that won’t make my wife freak out when she looks at the bank account. It’s not my daily driver and the most I may drive is 25-30 miles one way and that will be only once in a blue moon. Just looking for something that doesn’t look like training wheels. When I...

    Any original squares out there?

    You know I thought the tires that were on it looked funny because they had been sitting up so long and had warped or something. I just looked at some online and those things look just like the old ones...hideous. I’ll find something a little better looking!

    Any original squares out there?

    Ha...not even close. They were just some used ones that I picked up for cheap for the time being.

    Any original squares out there?

    That’s what mine were...I’ll put those on it later

    Any original squares out there?

    Had to put new tires on it...found a rim off a ‘77 to replace the one that was rusted out. Had to put a new clutch in it since the rats built a nest that I couldn’t get out. Installed gauges so I could read the actual my temps instead of waiting for the light to come on. Dad painted the bumper ...

    Any tips on removing old brake hoses?

    Had to use a pair of vice grips to get mine off. Couldn’t get the wrench in that tiny space enough to get any leverage to break it.

    Do we have a show us your shop thread?

    You’re looking at it...I prefer to be in the great wide open. Or it could be that’s the best I’m able to do at the moment :)

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I was looking for some fuses yesterday in an old tool box and found a couple adjustable wrenches I forgot I had...with the wife having to get a bunch of stuff to get ready for school that’s been the extent of my tool additions :(

    no fluid to right caliper

    Just replaced the left front on mine yesterday. After putting the new one on I cut the old one to see where it had stopped up. It was somewhere around the bracket. Mine had sat for 10 years so I’m assuming all the corrosion got to it and caused it to fail.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I had to hit the brakes really hard the other day because of some jackwagon backing up on my side of the road...around a curve. When I hit the brakes the back end spun sideways. Luckily I was able to steer out of it and didn’t hit the moron. Checked the left front and found out the brake line...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    It belonged to my grandfather. It was given to me by my uncle a few months ago after it had sat in the bushes for 10 years. It’s a few hundred miles shy of hitting 77k...
