    1976 K10 Fuel Filler

    From what I researched when I did my 84 the bedsides are the same just need to order one with the door. The door came on my new bedside. I will tell you that every right hand aftermarket were not made like the originals. The left ones are decent with a few minor adjustments. I bought 2 and ended...

    Window Needs Glued

    I took mine out and to my local auto glass shop. That glass is held in by a piece of rubber and I think slightly crimped they charged me $20 to do them both. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Front Bed Panel Removal

    Looks good. You can buy a new replacement but they are thinner gauge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I did one of these awhile back. It would be impossible to tell from those pics actually. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Front Bed Panel Removal

    I just built one of these beds. You will have to take most of the bolts out of one side. The bed is welded in the back. You will have to remove the seem sealer. Mine came apart fairly easy. It's just a lot of bolts. Has to spread about one inch on one side. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Dad has cancer-help me fix his AC please

    I feel your pain. My dad passed away about 2 years ago. I have the first pickup he ever bought new. I was restoring it when he died. I was hoping to get done with it before he passed but I didn't make it. I think he rides with me now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    steering column repaired, NOW more problems

    If I remember right it will be related to that "ignition switch actuator rack." Something in there was a @&$*^. Sorry I can't remember the details. That spring I think. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Suspension

    A short bed truck that is lifted will not ride good. You can get them okay but it takes coil overs and a 4 link if you want it nice. Not a cheap undertaking. Those rear springs in the picture appear aftermarket as well. Wrong taper on the end of the spring leaves. Shocks made as a stock...

    Suspension

    If you want to set up a suspension you first need to know what your goals are? Front springs not stock they came originally with a 2 or 3 leaf tapered spring for improved ride. I always run the 2 leaf on a stock truck. Prefer Dayton or Triangle for quality. I never used "Deaver." I always made...
