    Column Shift Linkage Bushings

    Appreciate the tip. I was going to try lubing it up with some silicone first, but I wouldn't have thought of the hot water trick. I also did a little more research and came up with Dorman #02373 as a replacement grommet, and I ordered one to pick up tonight and try. Once I confirmed it fit I...

    Column Shift Linkage Bushings

    Update: After looking through some pictures of steering columns for sale on ebay, it appears my steering column may just be missing what looks like a rubber grommet in that column lever hole.

    Column Shift Linkage Bushings

    Does anyone have a picture (or better yet know the part number) of the bushings that go on the shift linkage AT THE COLUMN? I have the small bushing on the rod itself, but I assume there should be another bushing at the steering column lever hole as well, as the linkage rod is pretty sloppy and...

    Suburban Rear vs Truck Rear

    Is the 5 lug 1/2 ton, 8.5" 10-bolt rear from from a squarebody suburban a direct bolt in for a squarebody truck? I was under the impression that they were the same, but I'm being told that there are housing differences between the two applications. I was hoping to snag a 3.42 or even 3.08 rear...

    700R4 Shift Selector U-Bracket Slot Orientation

    Do you have a picture of it off the shaft? That's the orientation I'm referring to, the shaft hole angle. Every picture I find is of it bolted to the transmission where you can't see the mounting hole because of the nut lol

    700R4 Shift Selector U-Bracket Slot Orientation

    Does anyone have a good clear picture of the u-bracket for the shift selector on a 700R4? I need to order one and I want to make sure the slot has the correct orientation. I don't have the original one to compare to, and I'm trying to gather the factory-style shift linkage and brackets to use...

    A/C Condenser Mounting Insulator

    Ah, thank you! This is the condenser I bought, so maybe I'll make something like that work through the flanges instead of trying to use the top and bottom "feet". https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=3608046&cc=1030969&pt=6708&jsn=10

    A/C Condenser Mounting Insulator

    Having trouble getting a hold of the (4) rubber insulators as well as the (2) metal "cups" that mount the top of the a/c condenser in the core support for my '86 C10. I'm adding a/c to my originally non-a/c truck, so I never had them to start with. Does anyone have a lead on them? Or an...

    Heater Core Box Door Rod

    Does anyone have one of these rods that go on the top of the heater core box for an a/c truck? Or can anyone get me the dimensions so I can bend something up? Mine is missing. My clip in position A is also broken, but I can probably work around that.

    HVAC Blend Door Position

    About to add a/c to my non-a/c truck this weekend, and I wanted to confirm the blend door operation before I get everything in and find out there is an issue. Is it normal for this door to sit in the "middle" position when disconnected? I'm assuming it's because there is no vacuum being applied...

    LS Swap Pollak Fuel Selector Valve

    My '86 has dual tanks so I can't comment on converting from a single tank truck, but I ended up ordering the 42-302P kit just to make sure I had the correct plug for that selector valve and there weren't any issues with the shape of the plug itself or anything like that. I also plan on using the...

    Power Steering Pump Fitting Part Number

    Does anyone have the part number for the fitting in the back of the factory power steering pump for an '86? I need to order one, and can't find that fitting listed on RockAuto. My truck didn't have the PS pump anymore when I got it back, and I need to add it to the 5.3 PS pump to reuse the C10...

    LS Swap Pollak Fuel Selector Valve

    Casey, you are correct. Pollak got back to me after I reached out and confirmed the following: Part number: 42-159 = The Fuel Selector Valve by itself 42-300 = Kit which includes the 42-159 Fuel Selector Valve as well as the 42-203 Connector, 34-592 Switch and 42-201 Face Plate 42-302P = Kit...

    LS Swap Pollak Fuel Selector Valve

    Pollak 42-159P or 42-302P? I've seen both selector valves referenced in here for using the '87 parts in your LS swap, what is the difference between the two? Are both plug and play electrically in an '86 that originally had dual tanks? (with switching out the dash rocker to an '87 type of...
