    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got most of the interior lighting wires run last night. 3 door switches are in and the cargo lamp is installed and working (though only if the interior lights are on). Just got the front passenger door switch to run. I think I’m going to have to drill a hole into the A pillar though. I see a...

    Was that a factory squarebody option? Had to of been 89-91 only if it was. I thought you swapped it from something else.

    Request, pictures of rear suburban / crew cab power doors

    OHH! Now I see, I thought the door cards covered the bolts, ok that makes things much easier. Thankyou!

    Request, pictures of rear suburban / crew cab power doors

    Hello everyone! My project continues, but now she's on the road! I have finally got around to installing the power door locks on my K30 Crew cab and am having some issues with where the lock actuator bolts onto the rear doors. I have looked everywhere on both this forum and the other one and...

    Delphi Electrical Connector tool+pins/bodies experts?

    I think the fuel tank selector valve on dual tank trucks also uses a weatherpack connection. My 85 does at least.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got a few things done today. Not all of them good. I tried and failed to remove the front pinion yoke nut, wanted to replace the oil seal behind it because it’s leaking but all I managed to do was round off the nut. After that fail I decided to put it all back together and let that sit...

    Drilling Holes in a Plastic Gauge Cluster Crystal?

    The way I did this when I found a junkyard clock was I cut out a small section of clear plastic and used it as a template. I put it right ontop of mine and the bumps put it in the right spot. If you pay shipping its yours. For drilling it out I used a hand drill and small files. On the tan...

    Dual tanks. Gauge only reads passenger side.

    Did some more testing with the new parts today. It looks like I had three issues, the switching valve was bad, the tank switch part was kind of working, but only sometimes. I may have had a bad/intermittent/partial ground from the switch in the cab to the cab ground bus bar. If so this would...

    Dual tanks. Gauge only reads passenger side.

    Hey everyone. sorry to post another dual tank thread but I did a search and found nothing on this particular issue. So this is all a bit wonky but I think the answer is that I need a new fuel tank selector valve. So here is what I've done, when I got the truck both tanks were leaking, rust...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    A good idea but the truck is just sitting for right now. Not licensed or inspected yet. I make sure to start it up every few days though. Got an appointment with the DMV next month and I gotta get tires (got the money set aside just gotta decide which ones to go with), then it'll be on the road...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Think I figured out my gas gauge problem. Ground wire to the sending unit was unplugged or so loose I knocked it off at some point. Going to have to drop the tank and solder it on. Of course it's 1/2 full of gas now so, that'll make it easy...

    Can I change over to a power steering pump with an attached reservoir?

    Hello everyone I was wondering if I could swap out my power steering pump for one with an attached reservoir? Here are some pictures so you can see what I have right now. So here are the facts that I know. This truck (85 crew cab) left the factory with a 6.2 diesel and AC, at some...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Let’s see Last Sunday I got the rear middle and drivers side rubber brake lines replaced. Had to use the vice grips but I managed to not (completely) strip any of the fittings. Still have the front passenger side to do but I ran out of daylight. Been working past few days but been trying to...

    Plastic cover over blower mortor. Do I have to remove the inner fender?

    Well the whole project was a bit more work than I anticipated but it’s done! The new blower motor is in, I think I’m going to get a new resistor as well as mine is pretty rusty.

    Plastic cover over blower mortor. Do I have to remove the inner fender?

    Well I guess I'll drop the inner fender then. Can I do that without removeing the outfender and core support?

    Greeting from VA! K30 Crewcab Dualy. Work in progress.

    Believe me I was looking for another option closer to home, really did not want a Dually but all the SRW trucks I found had already sold. I’ve heard mixed things about the 700R4 and what it can handle. It’s just the extra expense and weight of the Gearvenders setup is a hard sell for me. And the...

    Greeting from VA! K30 Crewcab Dualy. Work in progress.

    My wallet aproves of this comment... But I dont! ;) Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. I'm going to get around to posting a build thread at some point soon. Been cold at night (when I have time to work on this project) so not much has gotten done lately, which has sorta been driving me crazy.
