    Hi From Melbourne Australia

    Nice trucks @MelbGMC and @Dave M. I see the steering is on the same side us in the states. I guess they were shipped over when the trucks were old enough not to be modified for right hand steer?

    Dome/Cargo/Courtesy Light Question

    Not 100% sure of the question but here are the details for my 87 r10. With door closed I can turn the inside cab light and floor light on with headlight switch. If the cargo switch is also turned on it will also light up. With headlight switch off and door opened the floor and cab lights come...

    Glide out spare tire carrier

    If I can't find the glide out one I'll just put the standard one on. Better than laying in the bed. I do have some time to find one since it's a project.

    Glide out spare tire carrier

    It seems multiple years had them, 70s and 80s squares. I've never seen one fully intact in person. I did the same thing you didn't on my 87. Put the wench style from a gmt400. Of course kept all of the original spare tire carrier parts.

    Why won't my TBI 350 run right??

    Have you tried the temp sensor by the thermostat? Easy replacement and causes many issues if not operating. Also when you set the timing did you disconnect the advance wire under the brake booster? Then set timing to 0-4 degrees. At least that's where I have mine. Also can you see a nice spray...

    I need to see if I have the crossmember.

    Glide out spare tire carrier

    Yep, that's what I have. They are riveted, probably the only reason it's still there.

    Glide out spare tire carrier

    I noticed my 78 k10 has the bracket on the right rear outside frame rail for the glide out carrier. Unfortunately that's the only part still on the truck. Does anyone have one? Couple of pics I've found.

    Best flowing muffler that'll quiet down my motor?

    Agreed. I have them on my 87 R10 (dual in/single out like the factory) and true duals with shorty headers on my 82 k5. Nice and mellow until you get on it.

    Just to be specific, 81-83 is carmine red. 84+ is maroon.

    1981 C10 Front Grill is Ugly...Will a different year fit my truck?

    Yep I think the 76-78 are the same. At least the surround. I had an 83 k5 and liked how the paint stripe went through the light bezels.

    1981 C10 Front Grill is Ugly...Will a different year fit my truck?

    Since he likes the other 70s, he's my 78 k10.

    CUCV with rear disc - no park brake?

    Yes, someone converted to rear disk at some point. You can swap the calipers for the 70s Cadillac ones. They have a lever that will connect to the original ebrake setup. Try this site for more info. https://lugnut4x4.com/

    1981 C10 Front Grill is Ugly...Will a different year fit my truck?

    Agree, but I'm biased. Also attached is my 87.

    Factory stripes?

    Not sure if they put factory stripes on the k30, usually 1/2. He is a link: https://autowise.com/all-of-73-87-chevy-and-gmc-special-edition-pickup-trucks-part-i/ Maybe someone else has seen that style.

    Ls swap questions

    Look at my k5 swap in my signature for some pointers.

    Figured out which mirrors I want. Anyone have them?

    Sure, let me know. Sent you a message about the bumper guards.

    Figured out which mirrors I want. Anyone have them?

    Those look good. Thought about putting some on my 78 k10. Came with the little sport mirrors from the factory.

    Gas Tank For LS Swap

    If your tank needs to be changed I would use an in tank fuel pump. They like to be in a cool gas tank. This would require the 87 tank and fuel sender. There are a few ones that will give 60psi. Ac telco, walbro or the one I use Deatschwerks. You would also need the vette style fuel filter/...
