    Suburban frame interchange

    Should work. There's a few differences as the one you mentioned but overall should be compatible. HS

    Opinion thread- 81 silverado grill you like or ?

    I like the 81-82 GMC grille much better than the bowtie. My 87 had an 81-82 radiator support & grille put on after the OE was damaged (I reckon). I had a 91 Sub that I bought for parts & always liked the look of those 89-91 RV trucks. So, I used that clip on my 87. There are opinions galore...

    need help! 1987 v10

    Check first to see if there's 12v on the feed (the ringed wire). After establishing that check the signal wire on the plug for 12v. If the alternator is good it should charge. Also, you can use a fused jumper from the battery to the ringed feed. HS

    Grounding an Ignition control module!

    An additional ground strap shouldn't hurt or negatively affect the module. FWIW, I've taken GM modules & aftermarket units apart before & those offshore brands have fewer capacitors & transistors in them. Same goes for the "brain" on Mopar & Ford vehicles. You can actually feel the weight...

    Hello from Virginia

    Welcome in from the Tarheel State just south of you. My 87 is the same 29 Dark Blue LB V-10. I've been working on it getting ready for some new hue. HS

    What have you done to your square lately??

    This one was posted on the web & I went & grabbed it. 76 Sierra SM465/NP205 with an excellent grille & decent tailgate. HS

    Motor mounts

    It's a little easier on a 4x4 due to accessibility to the bolts. 2WD are difficult enough with no engine & even more complicated with an engine, tranny, exhaust, starter, shifter & what else may be in the way. I have done both either with or without the engine. The last was on my 76 K10 with...

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    The one that I saw had a full removable roof but had window frames on the doors. The 69-75 K5 trucks don't have window frames. IDK about Dodge trucks. Maybe someone with more Mopar knowledge can chime in. HS

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    I just saw the rear from the road. The top is setting half off the rear.

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    Mopar stuff ain't common in these parts. I reckon that OR & WA must have a mfg facility close. Anyway, I found a Ramcharcher or Trailsuster while out doing DE. I'm going to inquire about it on my next route.

    If you live in PA and see this truck it’s mine!

    I remember when you had it posted. I would love to have been able to scoop that jewel. WA is a world away from me unfortunately and I couldn't make it happen. But...what do you know, another owner from the Right Coast was able to snatch it up.

    How to switch from a DRW to a SRW in a 1981 K30 / 350 engine / 3 speed manual / 4x4

    Welcome from a much warmer Central NC. You should be able to source the single wheel Dana 60 outers and rotors to make the front differential a single. The C&C rear may pose a few more problems in that a single wheel may be very close to the rear leaf springs and hangers. The dually wheels are...

    1985 Headlight Question

    That looks like a nice ride from the pics. I agree with @Keith Seymore that it's an 89-91 nose. I have just done the same conversion on my 87 V10. All four headlamps don't illuminate on that setup as they would on the factory 85. There are many complaints about the lack of upgrades too. I'm...

    Help with ignition lock removal - 1984 M1010

    You'd figure with 2 batteries in series @24V that there'd be plenty of juice but unfortunately CUCV trucks have all kinds of wiring gremlins. The wipers are part of the problem too. HS
