    Push button starter and toggle switch

    toggle switches arent rated for any kind of amperage.. Use a fuse and relay triggered by the toggle switch to power the truck and a push button to trigger the starter. For wire colors you will need to locate a diagram/schematic for your truck and trace it. Welcome btw.

    So it was worse than anticipated

    Get well then we will fix the truck. Trying to fix the truck while recovering yourself only makes your recovery take longer and you run the risk of hurting yourself... I have a friend that tried to work on his car instead of recovering as ordered and he has nothing but problems.

    U joint blow out & repair on custom driveshaft PROJECT COMPLETE

    he had also put some miles on his when the caps came off, his came out because the caps were just small enough to not be tight with the straps ran all the way down but big enough to look like they were correctly installed.. I walked the road after we moved the car and found one of the caps while...

    Harbor Freight Tool/Product Review

    I picked up an auto dim hood from the local Rural King store and only issue I had with it was about blinded myself trying to watch the eclipse a few years ago because the sun light wouldnt trigger the sensor like the other brands do.

    Kick Panel Speaker

    the bigger speaker produces better sound than the dash speakers, to design them correctly they may get kicks as the bottom would be angled out to point the up at the driver. If you are worried about mud,snow and rain on the outside of the speaker look into marine speakers or any speaker that...

    383 Vortec/TBI Build Thread

    I was told to get one that is 96+ as they were stronger and had resolved the problems the early ones had, guess this is one of the issues. Did you find a descent timing table or just make your own?

    Kick Panel Speaker

    I urge everyone that has a speaker that is just placed in a hole to add these. In doors and kick panels they will protect your speakers from elements but best of all they will act as an enclosure and allow the speaker to produce the sound you expect to hear from them instead of just sounding...

    Has this truck been painted before? Gas tank overspray, 87 K10.

    Id wipe my ass with that carfax report. These trucks were long out of production by the time carfax came around..Do you think dealerships and ins. companies went back through their files to send info to carfax so they could load it into their system? Also in 99 I was in an accident with my 97...

    Help determine lift for towing

    my post was more about the weight and leverage being applied it may not seem like it but when you but a 3500lbs vehicle and load it on a 1500 lbs trailer you now have 5000 lbs being pulled by a 4500 lbs truck with a wheelbase that doesnt create as much leverage to help hold the truck and...

    Any guesses on the ratio?

    these also assume the axle hasnt been swapped.. getting the numbers off the ring gear is the best option.

    @#!$%$& Seized brake calipers

    I have never heard of the brand but GMT400s used a phenolic piston and is what made em think of it. With the troubles you are having I would check your local lifetime warranty stores and find one that has phenolic\alum. pistons so you dont have to replace them every year and when you do they are...

    @#!$%$& Seized brake calipers

    snow already? I would see if any of the replacements have the phenolic pistons, that may help prevent them seizing.

    your options are A. buy a cam designed to fill the cylinders better with a low compression engine, this cam should only used on low compression engines and would be wasted if you do a performance rebuild on that engine later. Contact cam manufacturer for recommendation. B. Buy after market...
