    Gray wire behind heater controls / radio....

    Based on this, I am pretty certain that the grey wire I have hanging behind the dash is a dimmer circuit wire. I have an aftermarket radio, so there is no dimmer line going into the head unit, which would explain why the grey wire is not hooked up to anything. It is hanging beside the yellow...

    Not sure what they call this but where can I get one?

    I'm sending you a PM. Not sure if you have the style I am after, but would like to check and see.

    Gray wire behind heater controls / radio....

    I have a gray wire that is hanging behind the heater controls / radio that USED to run to something, but I am unsure what. I believe it is related to lighting, because it supplies 12v when I pull the headlight switch out, but I am unsure where it should be going. At some point, someone has...

    1981-1986 Chevy C10 Truck Door Weatherstrip Seal Kit

    This is an excellent kit, and a great price. I needed to install door-to-cab weather seals and initially bought from a different site (I won't say which, but I essentially Lost My Cash). The door seal on that other site was $25, not realizing that it wasn't a pack of (2) I only bought one (plus...

    Turn signal flasher sound not working

    This is now fixed! It was indeed just the flasher module. Here's the old flasher that I removed from the fuse box under the dash: Here's the flasher that I picked up. Note that it's a "loud" version, which sounds much more like the originals. Here's the location in the fuse panel...

    Turn signal flasher sound not working

    http://st.hotrod.com/uploads/sites/21/2010/09/1009cct_04_o-chevrolet_c10_wiring_upgrade-stock_fuse_block.jpg I found this picture of a c10 fuse block (as I am currently at work and can't take a picture of my own). I see that the "dir sig flsh" module is there in the bottom right. Are flash...

    Turn signal flasher sound not working

    It doesn't bother me that much, but I'd like to not leave my blinker on for half my trip, like I did yesterday. lol. Besides, it should be a cheap fix I would hope.

    Turn signal flasher sound not working

    so, my turn signals work, both back and front, but the audible sound inside the cabin doesn't make any noise. My emergency lights, when enabled, do make the sound inside the cabin as expected. Any idea what I need to replace to get the flasher sound again? I think it's a flasher unit and is...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    I saw some of @gmachinz postings. His harnesses look great, didn't see a post that had his price, and I think I need to decide whether to swap out from the stocks to a conversion HID or something yet. Any idea what he charges for those relay harnesses?

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    Well, I've got my truck back from the shop, and back to my house. It was a 3 hour drive, on the interstate, 60-65 the whole way (a few times going 75), and I must say, it drives like a dream! I was mistaken on what was leaking regarding the power steering fluid. I thought it was the pump, but it...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    I'm not sure exactly. When I pick it up I will get some better details on what is going on with the ps system.

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    I picked this truck up not too far from where you are then... Manchester. I saw that post about the Cherokee shaft, but the stock shaft doesn't really have much play in it. My truck was hooked up today at the mechanic. Compression looked good, sparkplugs and wires were good, the distributor...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    I'm not a fan of the rubber, but I still like it. Definitely like that it's tucked a bit. I actually like roll pans a little bit, but want SOMETHING pushing out the back to put my foot onto. You ever thought about making a groove in the rubber guard and putting a strip of brushed aluminum in the...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    I'm from east Kentucky originally, but have lived in Louisville for about half my life now. Daniel Boone Forest is just next to where I drove 3 hours to pick this truck up! Depending on season, there's plenty of places to hunt in east KY. However, you have to watch where you go, because some...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    Thanks for or the kind welcome, fellas. I'm surprised at the response to the bumper, figured most would enjoy seeing stock OEM parts still in use. Myself, I really enjoy the look of a stock truck. For a long time I was a low rider kind of man, but the older I get the more I want to see an...

    Original seat or no?

    Strange that the seat would have been swapped to a different color. Based on the number of options on that sheet, I'm going to take another guess that the person who bought the car originally asked the dealer to swap the seat because that is what they wanted. Based on the options listed, I could...

    Hello from KY (1986 C10 Custom Deluxe)

    Hello there, I just picked up a 1986 Chevy C10 Custom Deluxe with a 350 v8 swap and some very mild bolt on mods. Just want to say hi and give some background about myself. I have been dreaming about an old truck (or car) for going on 15 years or more. I have always had an affinity towards GM...

    Original seat or no?

    http://brochures.slosh.com/1986/ctfb028.jpg That looks like the seat in your vehicle. I agree with CSFJ, it's probably more likely that the dashpad and other parts were swapped to black, but the seat and belts were left brown. A lot of older dashpads were only available in black as well, which...
