    Fuel Tank Replacement

    Here’s how it started.. running off the passenger side tank.. switch to left side, nothing. I’m thinking it’s empty. Grab a gas can and start to put gas in it. Leaking from the hose.. look under and no clamp on the hose at the top. Put hose clamp on and put fuel in.. no leak, great!! But gas...

    Unplugged wire…

    The further I get into fixing stuff the more I find wrong… this truck is truly all show and no go!! I found a 4 pin connector unplugged and a jumper wire was just stuck inside the female side.. of course it fell out and I have no idea where he had it…

    Unplugged wire…

    Not sure where to post this… I’m swapping carbs today and noticed this wire unplugged. My oil pressure gauge doesn’t work so I thought it might be to that. Not sure, so before I put the carb on where I still have a bit of room… Thought I would ask?.. Do you have to pull the distributor to...

    6 lug rims?

    I don’t know and that is why I’m asking… I searched but didn’t get an answer. Do all 73-87 K10 have 6 lug rims? I remember a long time ago seeing one with 5 lug but don’t remember the year. Thanks

    Carb Swap?

    Got it back and he said it had never been apart. Looked new on the inside.. Weekend project… Does anybody have a picture or something to show me how all the linkage hooks up.. I believe my transmission linkage is not hooked up right now

    Rear Bumper 1986 K10

    I don’t really care for the rounded bumpers.. looks good on a show truck but not a working truck like mine. I will look at the Westin… I’m sure they make several.. there is a 4 wheel parts place not to far from me so I can swing by there to look at them. I’m pretty sure they sell westin..

    Rear Bumper 1986 K10

    Looking for an OE style rear bumper. I checked with LMC, but really don’t like the looks of those. Looking for something closer to original. Any ideas on where to find such an animal, thanks.

    Carb Swap?

    I don’t have the expertise… that is why I don’t mind farming some stuff out. This man has been a mechanic for over 50 years… these old smart guys are slowly fading away..

    Carb Swap?

    I talked to a mechanic friend of mine who is very old school… he will rebuild completely for about $225

    Carb Swap?

    I have a 86 K10 with 305. The po put a Eldebrock with a manual choke on the engine. I have the original Quadrajet. Should I see about rebuilding this and using it? I don’t like all the vacuum lines being plugged and not having a choke. Your thoughts?

    Just bought my first square body, 1986 K10. Let the journey begin… looks pretty good but definitely needs some work.
