    grill hanging loose?

    I needed some of these and came across them on line some time ago. There were some other places I knew of where I could have got them, but the site I was on had a "Chevy truck parts". so I checked it out. I got them because they came with the right screws. Other sites you can get the nut...

    Ampmeter connection

    @Ellie Niner, Ha, ha, ha, ha!! That's the funniest thing. Yeah, at gun point, the union, "You'd better not stop this line waiting for the electrician to come solder one d*mn wire!!" @DoubleDingo, I've got just the yellow connector I just bought that has the size ring on it for the post on...

    Headlight switch dimmer question

    @squarelyfe, Your turn signals are controlled through the circuits in the turn signal electrics in the steering column under the steering wheel. It's like changing out your turn signal cam, that wiring. You may have a break in that cam that makes your turn signals work. If that wiring is...

    What? No one is off-roading anymore?

    There aren't any new posts since early Summer. C'mon guys, gals let's see those pic's! I miss them. I really like seeing where you all have been and your adventures off-roading. I know ya'll haven't parked those rigs. And I know some of you live in or near the desert and go out frequently...

    Ampmeter connection

    @DoubleDingo, Isn't that stupid crazy?! It's the only connection I have found on the entire truck that was like this. And I have redid the entire wiring from bumper to bumper. I untaped all the wiring front to back, cleaned every wire, soldered any wire that looked like it should have been...

    Ampmeter connection

    @Ellie Niner, Thanks for your help on this, and @DoubleDingo to. What do you think of what I found where the Alt. wire was connected to that short piece of light blue wire that goes to the fusible link there? Isn't that the craziest thing you've ever seen. I'll guarantee you that is...

    Planning My Rebuild

    I don't see how ya'll put up with it. It's all such a scam and a rip off. That's like inspection stickers. Are you telling me a brand new car needs an inspection right out of the dealership? Or after the first year to make sure it's doing...what? Still running? Yeah, yeah, I know if you're...

    Interior Color Question??

    @Joshua Keith, What color are you calling that? It looks like "mauve" You know that women's color that the eye can't describe. LOL I'm picking on you. But that really doesn't look like Mahogany to me. I thought it was supposed to be more redish brownish? That color looks almost greyish...

    Kilmat/new seat project

    I sure like that mat. How does it go in? Does it have a sticky backing or do you have to glue it down? Does it have a jute backing? Is it foam inside that provides the sound proofing and heat block? I guess I could be not so lazy and look the stuff up and answer my questions, but I like to...

    Ampmeter connection

    A couple more pics. Just the old amp gauge wire and fuse holders. If anyone needs these amp gauge wire and fuse holders let me know and I'll send them to you. Don't worry about S&H I'll take care of it. I remember someone needed these things in a post not to long ago and couldn't find them...

    Ampmeter connection

    #Ellie Niner, Double--disregardIsn't this amazing!! This is what was under the tape. I had a hard time removing the tape. I had to use a #2 X-acto knife to cut, scrape, and pull bits and pieces of the old tape off until this is what was revealed! I can't tell if it's soldered or what. I...

    Ampmeter connection

    @Ellie Niner, Okay, I looked a minute ago at the alt. power wire coming from the alt. up to where it goes up there on the firewall. Go to the last pic where you can see all those wire and specifically at the fusible link connections. You'll notice there are what appears four wires at the...

    Ampmeter connection

    @Ellie Niner, Yeah, you'd be shocked to see actually how small my "shop" is where I took those pics and do all my work. It literally measures 6 X 10!! The shop I had at the house we built out in the country and lived for many years had two ten by twenty buildings tied together. It was great...

    Ampmeter connection

    @DoubleDingo, Yeah, that's what I thought to. Oh yeah, it'll be a 3/8" ring to fit on that bolt And I'll put it under one of those star washers on there I was telling @Ellie Niner about to look at. That block with all the power wires on it. Someone mentioned some time ago that I probably...

    Ampmeter connection

    This is still "Electrical" but I thought you all might be interested in seeing this. The connector on the left is a #14-16 ring connector. The one on the right is...I don't really know, maybe a #00 like I was talking about in text above. But you can see how small it is. If somebody knows what...

    Ampmeter connection

    What would work better a ring connector or would these work? I know they are for what, a #12-14, isn't that a blue connector? But this type but for a #8 wire of course.Slip on's?My electrical box.One of my small parts wall.Need some auto light bulbs? I have a light for all the cars even those...

    Ampmeter connection

    @Ellie Niner, Boy this is about as close to "real time" as I can do. Here is where I want to connect the amp. gauge up to instead of going all the way down to the starter. What do you think? The large red cables are: 1) Starting with the big bolt in the middle, excluding the #12 red wire to...
