    Wiring something for dual "activators"???

    So I'm planning on installing some additional lighting on the rear of my truck to aid in backing up. My original game plan was to cut the wire for the reverse lights at the fire wall and install a relay so that the shifter is the switch and run a power from the battery to the relay to support...

    10 bolt front

    77 how is that on daily driving? I've always been afraid of random lockup. Keep buddy told my fronts should only ever be manual control locking to prevent random lock up if the hubs are locked. Does it limit your turning more then normal with locked hubs having that locking diff? Ultimately...

    How much time should I expect?

    Took me a day. Mainly BC of the learning experience. The spindle was the hardest part to seperate. Rubber mallet is key. Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    Wiper Arms Modification?

    Any new progress? Or suggestions of other vehicles that may work? Ford windshields are similar. Maybe a 90s model would fit Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    That's what I don't want Haha too big. My friends here at work today had a good idea. The photo I have posted above, get all that and have a machine shop just make a longer top mount bracket to make up the difference. Would be cheap.

    Hmmm good point thanks. I'll have to see about maybe larger mounts on top to balance it out.

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    That seems sketchy and prone to cracking. I wanna use true 16" west coast mirrors tho. There is a commercial salvage yard here I can pull parts from. Was thinking heated and power tilt mirrors haha

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    Those DG5 brackets are a little big still for my taste. I'm thinking of a setup more like I have at work on fire apparatus... Mount to bracket to mirror. Just gotta measure the door.

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    I'm aware of the tripods. I hate those Haha and the standard Dumbo. I'm looking to add west coasts but I don't want them hanging out 3' from the door.

    West Coast Mirrors on square?

    Anyone ever put west coast style trucking mirrors on their square body? I've only found 2-3 photos searching through google of it. Was curious what style mounting brackets to use and how to reinforce the door panel to handle it.

    Wiper Arms Modification?

    ya i would assume length would be the issue bc the squares have short windshields. Any clue on how to speed of the wiper motor also while we are mod'ing these?

    Where should I shop for a lift?

    Im currently installing a Pro Comp 4" Lift. New springs in front and blocks in the rear. When i replaced the rear axle i handled the brake line length knowing i was lifting the truck. My front lines need replaced just from wear and tear. Any suggestions on length to get or where to buy them?

    Question about a k10 hub

    I'll measure to confirm and take an axle with me too. I replaced my ball joints and I still have wobble between the spindle and the hub. What all should I replace? Planning in spindle bearing and seals atleast. Should I also do the bushing and bearings in the hub?

    Question about a k10 hub

    Are you referring to a snap ring on the axle in the hub? Mine doesn't have one but all the videos I see do. I just have the big ring around the hub that holds the gears in. Should I have the smaller snap ring too? I have manual hubs. If so what size are these snap rings.
