    Problematic Starting - rotate crank before starter engages?

    My 16 year old son is having a tough time getting the 78 K25’s 350 5.7L to crank and fire. He’s messed with every combo of starter shim, counted the teeth on the flex plate to ensure it is the correct starter, and all he can do is this process of turning the engine by hand, then trying to crank...

    Bad ignition switch?

    My sons K 20 has problems with ignition. They are only getting one volt to the distributor. The 16-year-old pulled the ignition switch and in the run position all were at zero ohms, which he thinks should be correct.

    Wrong brake calipers?

    Got these reman calipers from Autozone and already left my old ones there for cores, so I don’t have them to compare to. Seems like these bumps (where the paint is worn from me pushing hard on them) protrude out so far that they push against the brake dust shield and prevent the holes from...

    Ball Joints Need Adjustment?

    After installing ball joints on the 1/2 ton 4WD for the first time, they appear to be too tight after torquing them to the specifications of 70ft-lbs lower, 100ft-lbs upper. The adjustment sleeve was inserted to the recommended location “exposing 2 threads”, but was still easy to turn without...
