    Barn door catch

    Looking for a catch, spares if possible as my upper one is almost worn through from a loose door. I need bolts and shims as well. Thanks.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Took a 2 hour detour on the way home from the Squarebody Farm meet and picked these up for $75. They have some rot but the main door is a lot better than mine, and it has a good emblem. I'll be swapping the door out at lunch today. The door has all the lock hardware also so I can actually lock...

    https://www.pigeonforgerodruns.com/car-show/fall-rod-run/ I'll be at this one. The 16th is my birthday and my parents live in the area so it should be tons of fun. Hopefully some of you guys can make it.

    The only thing I need as of right now is a hydraboost pedal. I'm hopefully picking up a set of cargo doors on my way there.

    Square body meet Richmond Indiana

    Yes. If you have a few items you can sell them directly from your truck. Otherwise you need a table/ booth. Not sure if there is a charge for that though

    Square body meet Richmond Indiana

    From their FB page "Again, the Square Body Gathering is for squares only and all squares are welcome. Rusty and beat up trucks will be admired and treated equally!" At 7pm on Sat they are also heading out to the east side of Richmond for a Squarebody cruise.

    14 bolt axle tubes are… coming out????!

    Could be seepage, could be road grime, the spot weld might have a pinhole. A 14 bolt holds 3.5 quarts of oil but don't worry about measuring. Just fill it until it comes out of the hole. 80-90W is normal gear oil weight

    Spindle Nut Socket / Ball Joint Spanner Wrench

    The spindle nut socket is actually a 4 prong socket. There is one size for the 1/2 and 3/4 tons, both D44 and 10 bolt, and another for the 1 tons, the D60. The 14 bolt rear is a 6 prong. Advance Auto has them for about $20 each. This is the ball joint socket I bought and it held up just...

    Gremlins! I hate them!

    I am running side post batteries but when I put dual batteries in I made all new cables. There isn't any corrosion on the terminals and the grounds were cleaned up before I installed them and I haven't removed any of the cables since (it's been 6-8 months), but I did check for tightness. The...

    Relays, Relays, Relays

    That looks familiar! I ordered one of these months ago for doing my LS swap.

    Gremlins! I hate them!

    Fried it! Just coincidence I guess but I used a pair of jumper cables to start the LS on the stand. Had to run to the parts store to buy a new starter because the one I had would barely turn the engine over. I jump and and turn the key... nothing. Try a few more times and finally it starts. I...

    5.3 LM7 going in my 87

    Do you move E to A and leave A out of the plug? Or do you swap them?

    LS swap cost - COMPLETE a-z Drive in, drop it off & pick up tuned and perfect.?

    It depends if you have friends, how long you want to wait for your truck, etc. I paid $800 for a 126k mile LQ9 with no accessories and an LS3 oil pan, found a guy on marketplace selling accessories, LQ4 oil pan, LQ4 pistons and rods, and a pile of other parts for $100. I'm sure I'll make $3-400...

    Funny. I just saw this on FB and came here to let everyone know about it but I see it's already been done. I'm hoping to be there.

    Vortec overflow

    How did you guys mount yours? And where? I'm thinking mid passenger fenderwell which would probably put it about factory location. I got no problem making brackets but curious to see what others have done.

    Off-road bumper ??

    I wish it were mine. One day I will have something like that though. Here's the bumper center section. It's made from 1/4" plate. They have a welded version and an unwelded that you can put together yourself. They used to have the tubing prebent also but I didn't see it and didn't look to hard...

    Off-road bumper ??

    One of my favorites is the DIY4x bumper. I'll be making my own version once I get a garage. (Not my truck)

    LS PS pump differences

    In the pile of parts I got there were 2 ps pumps. One big pulley similar to the sbc style and one small pulley that kind of has a remote reservoir. I'm thinking the smaller pulley puts out more pressure. Anyone researched this before?

    New LS Tool

    Post up some of the videos if you would. I'm going to be doing a lot of tuning myself in the coming months using efilive but I'd like to get a handle on doing OS swaps, segment swaps and the like.
