    Wheel Measurements

    I thought it was an Outlaw II. I thought the center hole looked large too like yevgenievich said. I will see if he will measure them for me.

    Wheel Measurements

    I was thinking about buying some 8 lug wheels from a guy on Craigslist. He says that he doesn't know what they came from, just that they are 8 lugs. The opening for the hub looks pretty big. How do I measure bolt spacing and hub opening to know if they will fit my truck. We were going to...

    Cruise control arm but no wiper controls

    Meant to take a picture for you and post it today when I got to work but I forgot. I will try to remember later today.

    Cruise control arm but no wiper controls

    Yep, I have an 82 and 83 and they both have wipers on the dash, dimmer on the floor, and the turn/cruise on the lever.

    My 1972 Challenger Rallye build thread

    Great car. My first car was a Challenger. Bought if for $750 in 1985. I was 15 when I bought it. The car was originally a small block car that someone had put a 440 in. Interior was decent but the rest was rough. Had open headers and I drove it home like that without a drivers license. I loved...

    Wide Tires on 2wd

    I put 15x10's on this truck. I do not recall backspace. I went to buy wheels and tires for the truck and the guy at the shop had these sitting on the floor. He said someone ordered them and then never came to pick them up and he had them for a while so I snatched them up. I thought the truck...

    Engine Stand

    I looked at one of the geared ones yesterday on the NAPA website. I think it was a little over $300. NAPA always seems a little high to me though. I bought one of their floor jacks last year, it was more than the others but I have been happy with it. I will be ordering one in the next couple...

    Engine Stand

    That one looks nice and certainly heavy duty. Thanks.

    Engine Stand

    I need to buy a good engine stand that is sturdy enough for a big block. Will the ones from Harbor Freight be good enough or should I look elsewhere? Any suggestions would be appreciated. I don't want to buy junk.

    Subwoofer???

    Since you have had the headliner installed a while now, have you had any problems with rattles or anything? I thought about buying one but was afraid it might rattle or squeak. I love the way your setup looks though.

    Subwoofer???

    I had a system put in mine a while back. I have a JL Audio amp that runs Two 6x9's, a 10 inch sub, and two round (forgot the size) Pioneer speakers that replace the panels down by your feet. I have used 2 amps on all my extended cab or crew cab trucks, but on this one I just told them I wanted...

    Transmission Fluid is pink and milky :(

    I had a similar problem recently. My transmission cooler inside the radiator began leaking trans fluid into the cooling system. It let go all at once (in one day) and I lost enough fluid that the trans started slipping. It was less than a year since an expensive rebuild on the trans also. I...

    Removing a lift kit?

    I will give it a try. I don't have much to compare the ride to, since I have never had a lifted truck before. It rides a lot better than I thought it would. I don't live on paved roads and I thought that my stock height K10 rode pretty well on these rough roads but this truck rides a little...

    Removing a lift kit?

    The truck will be used on the farm. Most of the time I won't be hauling too much, but once a month I have to go pick up different types of feed. My last load was 2500lbs (50 bags). I also will be moving a round hay bale trailer once in a while and that can get pretty heavy. The truck will be...

    Removing a lift kit?

    I recently bought a truck that is lifted and I know very little about lift kits. The truck has 35 inch tires on it. I would like to lower the truck a little. I was thinking of going to 33 inch tires and was curious what the minimum amount of lift needed for 33's would be. How do I tell what...

    Gas Gauge not workin

    This is what's happening on a 1983 GMC K2500 I just bought. Both tanks and the selector work fine but the gauge never quite reads half full no matter which tank is selected. My water temp gauge also only reads about 130-140 and my oil pressure just bounces back and forth.

    What Gear Ratio? 82 K10

    My sticker is missing from the glove box. I do believe it has the stock axle though. Mechanically, pretty much everything on the truck appeared stock when I bought it. It had been painted and the interior has been redone but everything else seemed stock. I am also missing the sticker on the...

    What Gear Ratio? 82 K10

    I have a 1982 K10 with a 350 and a 700r4. I am going to put a motor in soon and need to know what gear ratio I am running. Is there any way to know what gear ratio I am running other than looking at the actual gears.

    truck randomly stalls out, but runs perfect otherwise. help me out here

    My small block was having trouble with the stock carb. A shop I was having some other work done at suggested I switch to Quick Fuel carb. Got it back and it ran better but would die at stop lights a lot. Took it in for an adjustment and it seemed to be better. Then every once in a while it...
