    Speedometer key broken?

    Nope. It's slightly recessed so I can't get a hold of it

    Speedometer key broken?

    Hi all, I have a 76 K10 with full time 4wd automatic transmission. It looks like just my speedometer key broke but I can't get the broken bit out. My question is: If I remove the speedo gear box, will I be able to push the key out from the other side?

    Rag joint replacement difficulty

    Hello all, My 76 K10 Scottsdale has a little steering slop and tends to wander on the road. I'd like to replace the rag joint but I want to know how difficult of a job that's going to be before I get after it. As always I appreciate your advice!

    Heater not very hot

    I haven't flushed the heater core. I'll look into doing that. Coolant is clean looking. It's bright green like it's fresh from the bottle

    Heater not very hot

    Hi all, Merry Christmas! I have a 76 K10 Scottsdale with no A/C and my heat never gets very hot. It gets warm at best. I replaced the thermostat and that didn't make any difference. I might try and bleed the system just in case there's an air bubble but I'd appreciate any advice on other...

    76 K10 rear main seal

    It's not the original motor but the PO told me it's a 2 piece rear main seal so he must have put in a pre 86 motor. I appreciate your advice!

    76 K10 rear main seal

    Hi all, I apologize if this has been covered but I wanted advise on my specific year just to be sure. I have a 76 K10 Scottsdale and the PO of my truck told me the rear main seal was leaking and based on what I've read I believe that's correct. My question is, how big of a job is it to replace...

    No turn signals but hazards work

    The issue ended up being the purple wire. I had a break in the connection so I just cut the wire and spliced it back together and now my signals work

    No turn signals but hazards work

    I'll see if I can get a replacement relay locally tomorrow. All the fuses look fine and I replaced the turn signal fuse and it didn't help

    No turn signals but hazards work

    Yes. Switch was no longer working. When I took it out the plastic eas broken in a few spots. Turn signals worked fine before the old switch broke

    No turn signals but hazards work

    Hello all, I just replaced my turn signal switch and got the steering column all back together but now the turn signals don't work. The hazards work just fine and the switch clicks to the left and the right as expected but still no signals. Any ideas for me to check?

    Differential skid plates

    I went with reinforced diff coveres instead of skid plates. The front one is steel and the rear is aluminum with some big fins on it for durability.

    Oil pan removal

    Hello all, I know this has been discussed but I haven't gotten a definitive answer on my year. I need to know if I need to raise the engine in order to remove the oil pan from my 1976 K10 Scottsdale. The drain plug hole stripped and the rear main seal leaks so I'd rather get in and replace the...

    Speedometer and Odometer quit

    I ordered new gears but I evidently got the wrong parts. My truck doesn't seem to use the bullet speedometer like other vehicles of this era. Can someone look at these photos and tell me what the part is called I need to order?

    Loose motor mounts? Please help

    Without jacking it up I just climbed underneath and felt the motor mount and a chunk of crispy rubber fell off. So whether or not that's my issue I'm definitely going to replace them. Will I be able to replace the motor mounts just by jacking it up by the oil pan?
