    I used a square drive bit with the drill. The bit had the same tip as the speedo cable.

    Help Diagnosing Gauge Issues!

    I'm going to look into the actual truck wiring more this weekend. I do believe I have multiple issues now albeit that the speedometer is 100% mechanical and seems to be it's own issue. My suspicion is that I'll find a broken hot or ground because all of the dash lights and two of the gauges...

    Help Diagnosing Gauge Issues!

    I did operate the drill in both directions. It didn't make a difference (I updated my post with this info for future use). Is there a quick reference for what circuit each terminal/wire is on the back of my gauge cluster. I need to identify the common ground and hot. From there I can start...

    1987 K30: Please help me value!

    So I'm not crazy. The prices around here do seem a little unruly. I must admit that the truck has me suckered though. It is essentially the exact truck I want (modern comfort features like power windows/locks, delay wipers, stock ride height and the 454 to boot) but it is a bit clapped out. I...

    1987 K30: Please help me value!

    Hey All, Note: I'm new here and this is my first post. I'm not sure where to post this question at. I tried posting it in the for sale section but I do not seem to have the proper privilege/access rights to do so yet. Please let me know if I should re-post this elsewhere. Question: I'm...
