    What’s the thoughts on New Retro Throwback truck?

    Love the square body! My dad has a 2016 Silverado and it does not feel like a truck. Sent from my XT1710-02 using Tapatalk

    Rebuild or Replace

    Ok guys I need a lot of help (again). I have been told the transmission on my 85 C30 is shot and needs to be rebuilt or replaced. I'm looking for you your thoughts on this topic and what I should be expecting as far as cost. AutoZone has a new transmission for $1000. I'm thinking a rebuild is...

    So where do I start?

    So what kind of parts should I be looking to replace if I do not have to do a rebuild? I'm on rockauto.com and there's not much to choose from regarding linkage for an automatic transmission. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    So where do I start?

    I wasn't doing anything crazy. The tranny did not want to shift in colder weather. Had to let the engine get hot and then really had to revise the engine to go anywhere. It gradually got worse and now it's stuck in gear. The last time I drove it I lost reverse. I started it yesterday when it was...

    So where do I start?

    First, I apologise in advance if I'm posting this in the wrong area. I have a 1985 C30 with a 454. It's stuck in a forward gear (not sure which one). I'm ready to buy a rebuild kit, but my friend thinks the problem might not be within the transmission. He's not around to ask at the moment so I...

    Is my transmission starting to go?

    To rebuild, or not to rebuild. That is the question. I lost reverse today and the truck drove as if I were stuck in first gear. It's a miracle I made it back up the mountain to my house. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Is my transmission starting to go?

    That's exactly what I'm experiencing. I do not drive the truck often and it does not want to go into reverse. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Fluid is very a very bright red. Now I'm totally lost. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Is my transmission starting to go?

    On these cooler days I'm noticing that my tranny does not want to work until the engine is warm. Once the engine is up to temp it's fine. Any thoughts? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Thanks! I'm considering running only one and completely bypassing it Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Finally started working on a leaking gas tank. My friend and I found the leak. Has anyone ever just left a tank empty and gone with one? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What can cause a backfire?

    I thought I heard something come off the underside of the truck today, sounded like something was chipping away. I guess I know what it was. Now for the question, if I do not use that side of the fuel system (and I haven't in the two years I've owned it), can I drive it? Sent from my XT1254...

    What can cause a backfire?

    I'm going to scream. Not sure if I can road test it because I'm now leaking gas from the passenger side tank. I'm pretty sure the tank is rusting out. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What can cause a backfire?

    Okay. I removed it. This is more of a work truck so I hopefully will not need it. I'll save it just to be safe. Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What can cause a backfire?

    Is the carb spacer necessary? I run an edelbrock and it already has the mounting plate. That should be enough, right? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    Drove it to a friend's house and we put in a new radiator. We also found a huge vac leak in the carb spacer. I'm going to remove the spacer and replace the gaskets Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk

    What can cause a backfire?

    Before I spend the money on new clamps, I found some u bolts that we're leftover from the install. I'm going to try those first. Any thoughts on where I should put them based on the picture I posted earlier in the thread? Sent from my XT1254 using Tapatalk
