    Anyone here changed a Grand Prix CV shaft?

    My sister's '02 Grand Prix has a hella vibration on acceleration and I think I've narrowed it down to a CV shaft. If I grab the drivers side shaft and yank up and down, the inner joint clicks back and forth. Anybody on here had experience with changing one of those? I've watched a couple...

    How To Refurbish Your Dashpad

    This isn't show quality, but I think it turned out great for a daily driver. You'll probably be starting off with a dash that looks a lot like this. First, take a sharp knife and cut off all the curled up edges along the cracks. Cut back far enough to get into the vinyl that's still somewhat...

    No gauge cluster lights

    Ok, somebody help me before I douse my truck in kerosene and throw a match on it. My gauge cluster lights worked fine until I took the cluster out to get to the clutch pedal bushings. Now the gauge lights and high beam indicator don't work. I have power at the headlight switch and at the fuse...

    Radio turns on after ignition is turned off

    Every once in a while my radio turns on after the key is turned off. It did it the other day when I went to the grocery store. I came out and music was playing from my truck. Weird as hell. Now today I'm installing my speakers and naturally turning the ignition on and off several times to test...

    How to change clutch pedal bushings

    The clutch in my '84 K10 was rattling so bad you couldn't talk to the other person riding with you or hear the radio. That and it flopped back and forth like a dying fish. So, I decided to dive in and fix the darn thing. This only applies to the linkage style clutches, not the later hydraulic...

    How do I get to the clutch pedal bushings?

    I think the bushings in my clutch pedal are completely shot. I can move it side to side quite a bit and it rattles pretty bad. Anybody here ever changed them out and have any tips on how to get to the top of the clutch pedal? I can barely reach the bolt on the one side and can't get my arm bent...

    Trouble changing turn signal switch

    Well I attempted to change my turn signal switch today and failed miserably. :Grenade: I got everything taken apart and unplugged the harness under the dash, but couldn't get the harness to pull up through the steering column. Best I can tell, there is some sort of sleeve that the wires all...

    PS turn signal intermittently works

    Ok, so I wired in a new front DS turn signal socket, replaced burned out bulbs, and replaced the blown turn signal fuse. Turn signals worked great until I drove around town. Now the PS turn signal only works if I tilt wheel up or down and get it in just the right spot. DS turn signal still...

    84-up intemittent wiper module location

    Where is the intermittent wiper module located at on the 84-up squares? And maybe a pic if anyone has one. I can only seem to find info about the 77-83 wipers. A buddy of mine found a backwoods junkyard not too far away that he swears has 100+ squares in it, so we're thinking about checking...

    Drill and tap wheels for center caps?

    I've been bored at work today so I've been looking for a set of center caps for the steel wheels on my K10. My question is, can you drill and tap a wheel to accept the bolt on center caps that came on the rally wheels? Or will that compromise the structural integrity? Also, my wheels aren't...

    Repro tailgates VS originals

    How do the reproduction tailgates compare to the originals? Thinner? Flimsy? Neither one of my squares has a tailgate and I've been on the lookout for a couple. Seems they're pretty hard to find in good condition. Most have one or 2 good sized dents in the top. I found what looks to be a...

    Water-logged 350

    Well I finally got a cool day to tear apart my 350 that the PO left sitting out in the rain. NOT pretty. :eek: :whymewhyme: What do you all think of this rocker arm? Suppose it was too loose? I've never seen one do this... This looks REALLY bad, but I started cleaning a couple...

    Bench Seat to Bucket Seats (Ideas & Discussion)

    Lol. Cool, I've looked high and low for a set of factory buckets. Closest I've found is a set of buckets out of a late 70's-early 80's Chevy Vandura motorhome. Not sure, but I think they might be the same as the pickup seats.

    1991 blazer

    Looks like a pretty good deal even with all the rust. Sure wish I had a little extra cash. http://www.nextechclassifieds.com/listings/view/315417/

    Newest parts truck-80's burb

    Went and picked up my newest parts truck on Saturday. It's a mid 80's burb(or what's left of it anyway). Lol. Kinda hard to identify the exact year. Got it for a 100 dollar bill. I tell ya, I've spent a lot more on a lot less. Much to my surprise, it has an edelbrock carb and intake :party36...

    New guy from Kansas

    Hey everyone :wave: I actually joined a while back but I never posted up an intro. Anywho, I actually have 2 squares and I've been lurking around here for a while. Things have finally settled down and I have more free time, so I figured I'd better start making some posts.
