    My-6 new process 3-speed overdrive

    Good info and awesome truck! My 833 is a MM7 steel body with the flat Hurst shifter in my 85 K10. Midwest Transmissions rebuilt mine and I just recently got a shifter from Shifter Doc.com. I plan to rebuild my wore out shifter and save it or sell it.

    You are very correct, my search for a shifter got me some blank stares.

    My-6 new process 3-speed overdrive

    I'll add a little here, parts are available for the transmission, the shifter is the hen's tooth. The Hurst Comp Plus shifter for the Mopar NP833 will not work on the Chevy since it's an overdrive unit. I found a rebuilt unit at Shifter Doc.com and snapped it up as it was the only one I had seen...

    Bare Hands

    I'm a mechanic/welder/fabricator at a rubber factory. Protecting my hands is just second nature. So yea, but it depends on how nasty the job is.

    This is an awesome site. Glad I found it.

    Welcome! I'm old as dirt and struggle with tech stuff, one reason I love these trucks.

    Finally got a new mig welder

    That's a nice unit. I have a Miller 210 with .025 wire and an argon bottle. Very reliable and constant.

    Seat Rebuild - To reuse or not reuse padding. And fixed to folding?

    I used the old padding in my first seat rebuild and still regret it. It's softer than a grandmas couch. I recently did another with new foam. Firm and well worth the extra cost. The old foam in the first one looked fine btw.

    The body and chassis are rust free and very clean. Chassis is painted. Clear coat is starting to deteriorate.

    What does an old hick who misspells axles do to his daily street beater? Red sparkle steering wheel and shifter knob. But y’all knew that!

    Thanks for the opinions, it really means a lot, as I haven't been the best member here. I know the truck is a pile of mismatched parts with a weak tranny. I learned that the front differential is a 3/4 ton unit. The rear is a 14 bolt full floater though. I bought it because of the condition of...
