    Under dash speaker opinion

    For mine I got some inner cab corner metal speaker holders off Ebay, stuffed the inside of the cab corner with poly fil from my ole lady's craft bin and put some Kicker 6x9s in there. I'm running one of them custom auto sound head units to a 2 channel amp behind the seat for some extra power to...

    5x5 2 inch spacer ?

    I ran a set of Amazon 2" adapters to go from 5x5 to 5x4.75 for one season. I can confirm it did look sketchy when torqued down on them short studs, but there were no issues. If you go that route, check them periodically.

    Lets see your gauge cluster setups

    So I went with Glowshift and their whole dash bezel kit since the only thing that worked right on my factory setup was the big fuel gauge. The GPS speedometer is a little aggravating to tune in correctly but other than that they work great and you can change each gauge color independently if...

    Steering Wheel Too Close '84 C-10

    I felt the same way with the factory wheel and a new bench, I could barely slide under the seat. After trying a autozone chrome 3 spoke I decided to give this Gran 689 a try. Far more room for legs, but with the adapter its only maybe a inch more room than the factory wheel. I am also...

    1977 C10 Rear speakers??

    If you decide to set the original radio aside, you can get a more modern type head unit from Retro Manufacturing. The truck I bought actually had one (poorly) installed when I got it. Now its wired correctly its not bad. Also has bluetooth/aux cord connection capabilities. This pic is real...

    Cowl Induction or stock?

    I like either way with either thing.... I scroll google looking at images of all the other trucks out there with various combinations to compare mine to in my head. I have debating a hood for close to two years now since mine is tweaked... still undecided :rolleyes:

    What tire size you running and pic for bonus.

    Just to stretch your imaginations a little, here's my 86 with my 2010 Camaro wheels, 275/35/21 in the rear, 245/40/21 in the front :cool: this was only for a day to see how it looked

    1985 K10 Wiper Issues

    Also check your physical connections under the dash for the speed control switch and on the wiper motor itself. My 86 (no delay) had the wiring harness changed before I got it and only worked on low speed, also the blades would not return to park when shut off. Come to find out the harness...

    Fuel injection conversion

    I just swapped a Holley Sniper system on my 86 C10 with a 454 last year, this was formerly a carbed 305 truck. I don't believe the FiTech is much different in the aspect it will control all the same things as the Holley depending on how you decide to wire it and the parameters you chose in their...
