Replace
As to fitment the 'new' doors fit exactly like the 'old' ones,same hinges etc.Bear in mind tho, the window regulators are different,the new ones are longer.If you could find a pair of later model doors complete with power regulators,the only mod you'd have to make is a hole drilled/cut in the...- chuck13

Urethane dash pad
So i searched hte forum and there a buttload of threads on urethane dash pads.Most of them mention the fit isn't all that great,and I suppose if I had searched before I bought mine I'd have probably spent the extra bucks and bought vinyl. That being said,has anyone actually USED a urethane... -

Spindle Contacts Wheel
The instructions with my BellTech spindles (yes i actually read them) specifically state the 15x8 Rally wheels may rub.Belltect says that the ose of a thin wheel spacer MAY be required.These are 3" drop spindles-I kinda doubt that any other manufacturer will be any different.- chuck13

Window motor
Enter changed the window motor without remoing the ent window?I usually remove the vent window,frees up a LOT of space in the door.A bot more work but I find it helps a lot. -
Dash Rehab for a Radio
Yeah i got the Metra kit-the 'metal' plate is actually plastic. And I already have a Sony headunit with front rear and sub RCA jacks.and dual USB connectors.It's single DIN so there goes my repair. I had found a GM cassette out of a Suburban,but of course it has the typical blown output. -
Window motor
Just to be clear I DID NOT do this!But that's what the guy I bought it from said too.... Just wish I'd taken pictures of what "not me" did to the steering column trying to get to the dimmer switch... -
Saddle Tanks NOT near as dangerous as publicized !!!
I remember when the National Bullsh!t Corporation/Dateline program aired.I learned then what a lot of people have learned recently-you CANNOT trust the MSM for honest information. A friend of mine operated a wrecking yard back then.Squares of every description,front impact side impact rear... -
Window motor
Not sur this is the right forum but... What do you do when you need access to the power window motor and have zero mechanical skills?? Why get out the air chisel of course! -
Dash Rehab for a Radio
One of the PO's of my truck installed a single DIN,just cut and folded the metal back. I was going to install a shaft type init and straightened out the metal and welded it back up. Now it looks like I'm gonna be using a single DIN Sony head unit I have and cutting the dash again.Sigh. -

Taillight harness?
This is a stepside so the connectors stick out the bottom of the bedside.Then the connector from the taillight itself plugs into that.Both are rubber 2/3 plug connectors.So even if I spent $130 plug for the harness,I don't have the plugs for the taillights.And yeah I've got the WeatherPak...- chuck13

Taillight harness?
Hey all.I'm looking for a source for the rubber connectors plugs for a 1978 C10 stepside.The main 4 wire connector and the two wire taillight connectors.Actually found a harness on Fleabay but I don't really want to spend $130 on it.At this time I "don't have sufficient privilege" to post in the...- chuck13
