    Rear Bleeder Screw Size

    I ended up having to get new wheel cyls because the old one's were rust welded. The new ones I got both have different size bleeders even though they are the same manufacturer.:emotions122:

    Rear Bleeder Screw Size

    I had to replace a blown brake line this week and went to bleed the rear drums, and the bleeder screws are mangled. Wondering if anyone knows the sizes off hand. Parts stores have a lot of different ones, but if I ask what size I need, they just shrug their shoulders.

    Where can I find an inexpensive overdrive

    To be honest I haven't the slightest. I just found the link while researching od's and it seemed inexpensive.

    Look what I found....

    A small update.... Numerous calls and emails between myself, county administrators, and state govt officials determined that they are able to be sold, but are unsure about the process and how it should be done. :/ If anyone has any experience in this process, feel free to share.

    Aftermarket bumpers

    This guy makes some pretty awesome stuff. Price isn't too bad either. If I didn't have multiple other issues pressing I'd send him a deposit. http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/body-armor/915578-73-87-chevy-winch-bumpers-rlc.html

    So sick of aftermarket parts

    Found the culprit in big white letters Quit for good yesterday. Put in the new coil, I could start it but still a little choppy. Installed a new icm and idles smooth as silk at 600 rpms.

    So sick of aftermarket parts

    Sounds eerily similar to what I have been experiencing. New Accel dist, plugs and wires. I will just die out of nowhere, no specific situation that caused it making it hard to trouble shoot/diagnose. Sometimes it will immediately fire back up, sometimes it takes a few minutes, but always...

    Look what I found....

    Turns out after some checking, they're owned by the local sheriff's office. They don't have titles and the only way to get the titles is to be turned back in to the state. Boss-man said he's more than willing to get them gone as they're just obstructions to mow around. They've tried to...

    Yeah 24-12v resistors and glow plug controllers are across the firewall. I had limited, but some dealings with them while deployed.

    Look what I found....

    That's kind of wahat I was thinking. I could part out the other two if need be to get one going. If all else fails, I could acquire some nice parts for the k10.

    That's what I was thinking as a starting point. I'd also have to pay for a rollback to get them here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk - now Free

    Look what I found....

    Found these about 3 miles away at the local county maintenance shop. All not running, newest registration was 2008, 2 M1008's, 1 M1028, all under 30k but undercarriages are rusted to hell and back. Talked to a guy (the boss) that said he might be interested in selling them but didn't throw out...

    My junk Here's my pile after I first brought it home from Germany. Had a lot of time and $ invested in this car Here is how it sits now. Some douchenoodle tried to hammer it through an intersection and didn't quite make it. I have most everything to return it to it's original glory...

    Engine wiring harness??

    That's what i figured. I was mainly worried about the plug styles/pins matching.

    Engine wiring harness??

    I have an 86 which originally had a 4.3, converted to a 305 3 PO's ago. The harness issue extremely worn, oil soaked wires, damaged connectors, etc.

    Engine wiring harness??

    www.truckandcarshop.com has a large selection of harnesses, both repro and NOS. However, They only have them for 73-82. As soon as I can find out if the 82 engine harness is compatible with the 86 I may be picking one up.:emotions33:

    DRW Dana 60 front

    Yeah, 428 miles, that seems to be a downside of living in the middle of nowhere. I'd love to have those, but only if it were 200 mi. closer.:bawl::whymewhyme::banghead:

    DRW Dana 60 front

    Around here (200 mile radius) they are fetching $900+ each. I've asked a few local scrapyards and they very rarely see them, if ever. Seems most 1 ton chassis around here were all used on strip mines and the like and were scrapped out many years ago. I'm just gonna have to be patient and keep...
