    I think I just got screwed. Advice?

    I didn't read the whole post. But I do work in auto parts. I often have people come in and price parts then complain that a shop charged them more. My response is always the same. I ask " did they give you and estimate? " They say yes. I ask " did you tell them to do the repair?" They say yes...

    No availability for 1/2 ton lower arms?

    This is the ball joint sleeve I bought. The outside diameter is just a tad smaller than the C20/C30 ball joint.

    No availability for 1/2 ton lower arms?

    About a year ago I ran into the same problem. At the time all of the ones listed on eBay said they fit C10 but they we're for C20 and C30. So I ended up buying C20/C30 ones. I pressed the ball joints out. Bought rings from Speedway that fit the C10 ball joints. I then welded them into the...

    How to put 1992 Camaro disc rotors on a 1979 C10

    Sorry. If you have 1" wide rotors now than you just need the rotors for the swap. If you have 1 1/4 rotors than you will need a few more parts.

    Spark plug wire opinions

    From personal experience Firecore is the best. I run them on everything thing I can. Below that MSD and Moroso make great sets.

    A few years ago I bought mine from Rockauto. They we're we' cheapest with shipping at the time.

    454 with 10 bolt rear end?

    The leverage of a 35 inch tire will be the death of it if you drive it like you stole it. Drive it like it's your own money and it will probably live a long time.

    1979 C-10

    Mr. Jones is pretty well known for making power. Lots of BBC Chevy powered hot rods with engines built by him. And several informative YouTube videos if do search. Good luck on the build!

    Help-Get out differential shaft lock bolt

    I have probably removed a hundred of these over the years. The first thing to do is hose it down with brake cleaner because the gear oil causes a suction on it when you try to remove. If it broke with some thread left you just use a pic to unthread it. If no threads I use a magnet that fits in...
