    Cab aluminum body belt

    Why did some models come with the narrow or wide variety? I have both available but not sure what I should mount on my 83 k20.

    Head scratchinh situation

    when in doubt, I pull a plug wire off, put a small screwdriver into the plug socket, lay it across the exhaust manifold, and look for spark. No spark, I meter for 12 volt power at the coil, then to the next component until I find the failure point. If spark, make sure number one lines up with...

    Por15 the inner box supports which I just patched. I also pushed out a few dents on the driver side box panel. PO stuck some bondo in the deep dent which was separating from the metal. I was able to get at it from the upper tiny access near the tail gate latch.

    1970 & 1971 Kawasaki 100cc G4TR's

    Get em in good working order and hit a local vintage race, could be fun riding with others competing on similar equipment. Caution, riding something newer will make you second guess your decision. The price is certainly right. I used to buy bikes like that for $20 back in the 80s, usually...

    Scissor Jack

    The hardware to keep it on the inner fender is still there but no bottle Jack. What’s the maximum lift on the bottle Jack? My truck has 4” lift and larger tires.

    Best seat options ?

    In 84 when I was working for the Chevy dealer as a car runner, I was able to buy a brand new bench cloth seat for $20 which I installed in my 1964 C10. A seat like that probably sells for crazy money now. I think it went to the crusher with the truck, it was still in great shape too.

    Scissor Jack

    This should work and mount on the inner fender, right? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BJV4XV49/ My truck is missing the Jack and I just need to pickup a spare tire so I can drive it more.

    New Bitchin Camaro…

    That drive train is pretty much bullet proof and simple to diagnose and work on, steel timing chain versus a doomed belt. My 3800 Bonneville is going strong at nearly 300k and it’s been amazingly reliable and inexpensive to drive. 3800pro has some good info and smarties too. Great find, drive it!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    4 corners welded, filled and semi protected. I been pushing a bit on the pedal to get this far so I can work on some other neglected vehicles. I’m gonna take a break till it cools off a little bit. I very much dislike the filling and sanding process especially since I am working outside.

    Week return springs?, the spring rate significantly decreases as the temperature increases. Just a guess from a backyard mechanic.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yup, I tacked all the holes. One down and three to go, then it gets dirty with the filler. Girlfriend said the bigger the blob, the better the job.
