    Bed to cab gap????

    Im putting on a 6” lift with probably 35s. I’ve got about 2 finger spacing between the cab and bed so I’m guessing it’s good. Thanks for the help

    Bed to cab gap????

    Looking for some help. Doing a complete rebuild on my 79 and it’s time to line up the panels and get all the gaps correct. I got the bed back on and the space between the can and bed seems bigger then I remember. Is there a standard that I can go off of? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    Cab mount torque specs!!

    I am replacing my cab mounts with new poly ones and it says to go with factory torque specs. Does anyone know what it should be?

    Rear disc brake conversion?

    I’m doing a complete rebuild on the truck and when I dropped the rear axles I noticed that the backing plate was in bad shape. I was wondering if I should just replace the backing plate or just convert to disc. I guess I have to figure out how much money I want to spend

    Question about vintage air

    Ok so I need to order new vent panels for both sides because the ones I have are in bad shape but the passenger side gets the air vent baffle that replaces The manual vent? I’m ordering it from LMC if that makes a difference

    Question about vintage air

    I’m building a 1979 k10. It’s a non factory A/C truck and I want to put a vintage air system in it. My truck has two manual air vents by the kick panel. I noticed that the trucks with factory A/C doesn’t have that. Do I need to replace those panels or can I keep the air vents?

    Looking for help

    I also live in the land of rust. Not to many of these square bodies around anymore here in Hawaii. My upper core support has some damage to it so I was looking to replace it. I found on newer one (81 and up) if you buy a new radiator support it comes with the piece I need but the older ones don’t.
