    Carb linkage help?

    Alright so yesterday I got my new intake and carb installed but Im confused on how to link everything up to the new edelbrock carb. Here is a pic of what I have going now. The cruise isnt hooked up due to a separate issue I'm having with it wanting to hang and not release. Anyway, the engine...

    Shackle/hanger or lowering springs?

    I do need new springs. I think I'm rocking about a 2" lowering version of spring sag right now cause I'm sitting pretty level. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Crooked bed?

    The bed lines up with the cab pretty decent. It's a little over to the passenger side up at the cab but not horrible. The lines themselves are straight. And yeah, the trim does look crooked. The top of the tailgate is pretty even, but the trim doesn't line up over on the drivers side. Also...

    Crooked bed?

    I do think my leaf springs are shot. But I don't get how that could effect how the bumper aligns with the body since they all bolt to the frame? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Crooked bed?

    Alright guys, this has irked me for a while now and since Ive added the new bumper Im determined to figure it out and correct it. Ever since I bought the truck the back end has been unlevel or just crooked looking. As you can see in the pic below, the bumper looks bent but it is brand new and...

    Shackle/hanger or lowering springs?

    I'm looking at lowering my 86 C10. Planning to keep it tame with a 2/4. I was just wondering what the opinions were on shackles/hangers vs lowering springs? Obviously the springs seem more expensive but I just wondered what the benefits of either were and what you guys would suggest? Sent...

    Rear axle swap questions?

    Oh, well alright then. It's my father in laws truck and I was just thinking it was a 10 bolt also. Will the springs and shocks and such bolt up in the same place? And where might I find the ujoint at? Pardon my lack of mechanical skills. Thanks for the info. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Rear axle swap questions?

    I have had a whining noise ever since I bought my truck and most everybody has agreed at this point it's the rear end. I'm in the auto shop black hole here and haven't heard anything positive about shops to install new gears etc in my existing housing. Anyway, I have access to a 77 10 bolt...

    Decent quality bumpers/hoods/tailgates?

    I'm trying to decide where to get some new bumpers, a hood and tailgate from. Or if the branding of said items even matters. I have already bought a cheap front bumper from eBay and literally cracked the chrome during installation. Wondering if AMD or other companies are of superior quality...

    I'm not sure about that. Max ac may just open the foot vents. Good question. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Radio issues, any ideas?

    Mine ended up being the fact that I cut that satellite radio wire. Once I unplugged that the new one works fine. However the screen is tiny on the Pioneer I got and Im looking for something easier for me to see.

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    Do I even need one? Can I just swap the stock one over? I have no idea. I just want to make sure I get something that works and is dependable. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lowering truck, already level?

    Well the more I read the more it seems people are having interference issues when using the stock 15" wheels and the spindles. So i may just go with some coils in the front. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lowering truck, already level?

    Im measuring from the top of the tires to the bottom of the wheel arch opening. I like the stance it has now and it look very level from the side, I'd just like to drop it down another 2-2.5". I see spindles from ChassisTech, StreetEdge, Belltech, McGaughys, Crown Suspension, Springtech etc...

    Lowering truck, already level?

    I'm in the process of deciding how I want to go about lowering my truck a bit. Im leaning toward drop spindles in the front and shackles in the rear but I'm open to suggestions and interested in what I need to avoid. What would you guys suggest to get down about 2.5" or so in the front? I...

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    Alright guys, got the carb in today. Got all the misc things mentioned here, studs and springs and whatnot. Got a raised base air cleaner. Got the heat insulator gasket. The only thing left is a throttle cable bracket. What would you guys suggest on that? I have a TH350 tranny so no TV...

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    I figured that was the intended way of sealing the ends but thought I'd throw that out there. No worries there. I found the studs and will get them ordered. Hopefully it'll go as smoothly as possible. Related question, the connector to the carb choke is broken. I have it zip tied in place...

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    The carb and intake are new. I got the Edelbrock gaskets to go along with it (which dont come with front or rears?) and then the bolt kit from Edelbrock for the manifold as well. I do have an aftermarket pro form air cleaner. Ill cross that bridge when we get there I suppose. Ive got a TH350...

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    Thanks for the info. Yeah, I know there are a lot on here that prefer the Quads and like I said I dont know enough to have an opinion on it. I just know what he prefers and so I try to go along with that whenever possible.

    Quad to Edelbrock carb swap, what do I need?

    Hey fellas, the truck died on me this week. Turns out the pickup coil was bad in the distributor and must have been going bad ever since I bought the truck in March as it runs like a completely different animal now. Went ahead and put new plugs and coil on it while we were at it. Anyway...
