    A small section of bed floor

    Will try to remember to look in the morning, (have a funeral and Vet Day service before the night shift) but may still have some sections I saved.

    What will cause this to happen in a 208 Transfer Case (Pic Inside)

    Make sure your speedo cable isn’t binding, lube it. I’ve been able to pull the center out of some and smear grease on it and reinstall, make sure it turns easily. Check the driven gear as mentioned. You should be able to turn that drive gear around and reuse, as it doesn’t look bad. The drive...

    Best Locker for 14Bolt FF in 85 K30

    The Gov Loc for 14b ff is not a bad unit. Like someone mentioned above, I did not care for either the Lock Right or Detriot Locker’s manners on the street. So much so, I replaced with a new Gov Loc unit. The money I had trying the 2 others was the same as the new Gov Loc from Eaton

    Cruisin the Coast 2024

    We had a good time Friday. Too much to even attempt to see in just one day. Spent most of it in Ocean Springs. Left OS close to dark and went to BSL. Did run into some people we know in Biloxi. They had their General Lee, Roscoe’s police car, Boss Hogg’s convertible, and Daisy’s Jeep with them.

    Cruisin the Coast 2024

    Going to spend time with my 93 year old uncle. He lives in the Villa Maria apartments (the 13 story building in OS) so we’ll walk around there, but it’s mostly up to the wife and daughters. May run 90 down to BSL to get a picture of my daughters with the Publius Pray historical marker (my 4th...

    Cab swapping.

    Be careful when welding on the 84-up cab floors as I believe 84 was the first year of galvanizing on the floors.

    12v Swap Into 87 C30

    It’s said and done now, but with a little work, could have got everything tucked in without needing a body lift. If you want to run a mechanical fan, swap out your second gen fan hub for a 1st gen one. It should give you and extra inch or so of clearance. Get the fan to match the one you get as...

    Transfer case identification

    Looks to be an 1983 manufactured 208 C by the tag, which if your truck is an 81-87 1/2 or 3/4 ton should be the right case. Only differences would be large or small input shaft, depending on transmission.

    Engine Crossmember Replacement

    A good front crossmember down here is sw MS is a $100 - $150 part. Wonder what a bare crossmember weights? Shipping would probably be costly.

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    It is of that series. I think it’s a 4100, but would have to look. The manual says it for the “3000, 4000, 4100 & 7100 series” Word has already gotten out though, as I’ve had several asking if I’ll turn drums and rotors, as no one does that, that we know of, in about a 50 mile radius from where...

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    LT1 Swap Vendorss?

    The harness is pretty simple to do, as you are removing wires not needed. Brenden shows what can be removed at his link, https://lt1swap.com/lt1_pcm_pinout.htm He can also program the ecm. If you are not modifiying the engine, the black box ECM is fine. it’s very simple to make standalone...
