How to/Tips on pulling a 350 engine
I pulled my front clip off, mainly because I figured that was just how it was done. I was gonna clean and respray my engine compartment anyway so that made it very easy. I was able to pull the engine and replace it alone, I feel mainly because the front clip was off. With the air impact wrench...- 85k10383

Body lift bumper brackets?
I've been thinking of fabbing up a filler to attach to the front filler panel between the bumper and the bottom of the grille. Some sheetmetal and some rivets ought to do it. Shot at 2010-10-02 This is my 85 K10 w/3inch body lift for your viewing pleasure I would worry about what a... -
Pics of future 454 purchase
Technically being stuck in 2nd is what grenaded my motor, and it didn't show any outward signs of the hellish destruction within, unless you count the oil fill cap being blown off the valve cover. Of course mine wasn't STUCK in second, it was stuck into second by my lovely wife, at 80MPH, on...- 85k10383

A shame about the blown motor, the body looks real solid in the pics. No steering column? I guess you'd need a trailer to get her out of there then huh?- 85k10383

My mistake it is a 208, I don't know what I was thinking. GD, thanks for that RPM/speed info, I never would have thought to look for that either. I'll be working on the truck this weekend, the left front brake has started making a horrible high pitched screeching noise in motion. I think i...- 85k10383

crazy4offroad's for sale thread!
C4 the drop drag link and steering arm are both required when doing a 4" lift correct? Those assure proper geometry on the steering right? I'm asking because I think after I get the speedo squared away, I'm gonna get a four inch "all spring" lift kit. (no blocks for me, nossir) -

Well I'm scared shitless already LOL I would never have come up with that info on my own HRPC so I am once again in your debt. This driven gear on the speedp you speak of, does it require the speedo be disassembled? Or is the gear down on the trans end of the cable?- 85k10383

Yes it is, check out their website, it has really good pics of the gauges already fitted with the kit. They make them in all kinds of colors too, and will even do custom work if you so desire. -
Who has the best manual for rebuilding transmissions haynes or atsg?
What he said^^ An awful lot of the Haynes books are just garbage, they don't cover nearly enough for the 25 bucks they charge. Sorry, I'm no help on this one.- 85k10383

And the winnah is HRPC and in a record 6 minutes to boot! LOL The faces are white just like in the pics, they are thin sheet vinyl, adhesive backed. They come with instructions for installing them that recommends applying them like a water slide decal. I didn't bother and they came out... -

I like the move the needle idea, but am open to doing it the right way also. The truck has had a trans change AND a tire change. It may also have had axles swapped on it, but that i tend to doubt (Why in hell would you swap IN a pair of GM 10 bolts?) The speedo error cheat sheet came from an...- 85k10383

Some more updates to the interior. Added the Grant wheel, repainted the dash bezel in black and silver. And the white face gauges, with shift indiicator. Now I need to get my Autogage tach replaced with the white face variant so it'll match. Sigh, it never ends..... Shot at 2011-04-24...- 85k10383

Speedo question
So its just buy the gauge and bolt it in then? I have neither FI nor CC so I shouldn't have any issues. I would like it to read accurately with my 33s though. For that I'm sure I need a different driven gear.....- 85k10383
