    those were the 7 inc wide reversed offset cragars from dad's 84 and these are knock offs lol. I do miss the deep dish. The sunroof was a half to since the roof was so jacked, that or another roof.

    1981-87 Chevy & GMC Truck 1 Piece Vs. 2 Piece Vent Window Seals

    did they seal good with the 1 piece? any other issues other then glueing? I know that one looks bad at top like the seal should be over it and ot behind it. I need to do this on mine and dad's and his is 2 piece ad the price difference in 1 vs 2 makes me wanna do the 1's

    oh yea forgot to update, got this stripped off, cleaned, and then recoated, light coats and not as many, worked fine. I only did 1 hb coat and 2 epoxy. Mostly 1 hb because I ran out but its enough for now. I then pulled it out of the garage and parked it under the carport, most likely for the...

    you should see my 79 TA it's off to the pass. side I'd guess an inch or close. I had reversed offset cragars on it and the pass. stuck out a full tread block, while the driver's was near flush on some 255 60 15's 7 inch wide wheels with 2.25 BS

    they make kits to have a flapper in the back of ta scoops like motor etc. might work for yours. take some steel or abs or whatever you choose for a flap door.

    k10 drag link steering question

    I will for sure keep that in mind, our thought were that it's an 84 ps pump with no leaks, always lived on a 2wd with small tires, and being a 4x4 with big tires and push pull steering might be showing it's age or not enough psi now, going to replace soon ad if that doesn't completely fix it...

    oh yea always use lightweight, this time from usc, special lite to be exact, it's weird because I've used this filler and this primer before. My one thought is the last coat I had to use a lil reducer for the hb primer, thinking it went all the way through. I'm thinking of buying myself some...

    I'm not real sure that was the cause as the hood was done the same and no issues, plus roof was fine on the metal areas. It was really weird, never saw it or had it happen

    This was an epoxy fail for some reason, but only over filler, over bare metal it was ok, and yes I have used this over filler before this primer, this same filler, no issues. I was already afraid with the surface rust ad pits on the roof it'd come back to bite me after paint but it already has...

    also if ya notice I left that plastic loose on both quarters under the sail panel area so it could have a soft edge. I've got the filler work and all that on the ds 1/4 the door, the jamb and maybe a dent on the fender? then I'll epoxy that stuff and hb, only those areas, hb the bumper up front...

    we did but there was no body work required on the pass. side. So technically it's ready for sealer and paint. The roof was bare metal, needed epoxy and then some high build for the sand scratches and such. I'm not going for a show car perfection blocked perfect job because I know the other body...

    got kids involved as well, didn't post my son as you can see his face, figured not the best idea? even though they are all over fb LOL. Anyways, all sanded, roof and hood are primed, roof is done as far as bodywork, just blocking the primer, then if need be glazing putty and sealer before paint...

    k10 drag link steering question

    just noticed something else, the gear box is getting good and warm on the end by the steering shaft just from running a minute and going side to side like once. The rest of the box isn't that warm and neither is the PS pump I double checked ball joints and tre's no play

    k10 drag link steering question

    yep when she turned the wheel and I watched it with a tape mark at 9 o clock it's go to 12 for right, and to 6 for left before the pitman arm began to move and that's by feel with my hand on it. I tore it apart, centered the wheel, reinstalled drag link, no help still won't turn fully. I also...
