    Opinion thread- 81 silverado grill you like or ?

    I used the stock 81-82 bumper and turn signal housings, wired it to a relay and a flip switch to keyed power so I don't forget to turn them off. Just used stock bulbs that fit in them. I tried LED ones but they never worked right with the grounds. Looks better if you run soft white headlights...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got all my boards squared and cut to roughly the size I wanted for the stake side. Probably going to take a little more off the width still. Nothing fastened on yet just seeing if I like the look

    Power steering lines for new box?

    Hey guys just installed a new steering box in my truck. It's a reman from O'Reilly's. Any ideas how to get the high pressure line that fit the old one to fit the new one? Old one looks like an o ring new one looks like an inverted flare.

    K20 Suburban Flaming River tilt column (also Wolff Engineering bearing)

    Awesome, just picked up one of these the other day and wondered if I wasted my money or not. Is that a borgeson shaft as well? thought about getting one with a U joint in place of the rag joint.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Hey guys here's an update on those door cupholders and speaker pods I bought. These are just roughed in as a finish, I plan to paint them the right color and sand again I just wanted to see them on the truck. I am going to flip the sides I put the cupholders on so the round part is in the front...

    I'm guessing you can just swap the side it's on so the cup holder it in the front and it would work fine maybe?

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Not my truck but I thought I'd share with you guys something neat I found. Just ordered a cupholder set that replaces the pouch on the door panel and a lower 5.25 speaker housing set for my truck. I thought it'd be cool because I hate the ashtray cupholders and I don't like cutting holes in...

    What is you headlight setup

    Relays hooked up to some sealed beams and led 1157s in a factory housing 81-82 bumper hooked also on a relay and to a switch. Super bright but not overly bright and can see great. I do lots of night driving and have no issues seeing ahead even during rain.

    How... do you build a stepside?

    Here's an idea of what the undersides look like on steps and fleets. Similar bedrail layout same frame mount locations. Well minus the rust and missing chunks on the fleet side.

    How... do you build a stepside?

    For the long bed stepside there are 8 bolts total same as a standard bed. There were 4 of the 5 larger rails that lined right up with the factory frame holes and bolt through the frame with carriage bolts and offset washers. The 5th big rail just helps support the bed wood. 2 smaller rails just...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    All the lights working now got it all wrapped up just about, few odds and ends mechanically still but I finally got to drive it around for the first time since June. This is the first time my truck has been one matching color in the 6 years I've been driving it, feels awesome!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    All the parts are on, only thing left to do is make all the lights work again, put the bumper on, and then I can finally turn some rubber down the road. Can't wait to get it all wrapped up
