    Hydroboost front brakes locking up after heating up

    I had the same issue. Cracking the caliper line helped me get home, but would happen again at random times. Finally traced it to the master to hyrdoboost interface. I loosened the nuts securing them together and and it released the brakes. I played with spacing and found a spacer made out...

    What did I do wrong? NV4500 Swap Issues

    It looks like the throwout bearing is grinding in the clutch disc hub. Any chance it's the wrong disc or possibly the disc is installed backwards?

    TV & Throttle bracket with 1406 carb

    Easiest way to check is to have someone push the pedal to the floor and hold it. Then go to the throttle lever on the carb and see if it will move any further. If it does, I don't see how changing a bracket would help. You need more travel in the pedal arm. I would try bending the pedal arm...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I modified mine with bigger wheels, and made handles that stick out the front (easier to lift the smaller front wheels and roll on larger pneumatic rears over gravel and uneven surfaces), as well as a tall handle loop on the front for pushing around. And horseshoes welded on for hanging musc...

    Driving lamps/Fog lights? Anyone running them on their c10?

    I would see if they would fit behind the grill. If they do, wire them temporarily and see if they still put out enough light to be worth mounting there. I don't think they would fit the look of your truck out front, which looks great as is.

    Straightening the bed with frame and cabin

    There is some play with the bolts through the mounts. You will just have to loosen them and experiment. I would spray some rust penetrant on them and let them set for a day or so. If you can get a torch in to heat the nut up prior to trying to turn it would be a bonus. Its common for the...

    Brake Booster question...

    That was my guess before I read your 2nd post. The switch can be accidentally moved fairly easily. That's ok, we like easy fixes.

    Anyone going to the Portland Swap Meet this year (2025)?

    We have gone for probably the last 12 years or so. Always enjoyed it. Last year noticed that the Expo Center one was maybe only 50-60% of the booths that were there before. The lower parking lot was now just parking (used to be all booths), and the buildings were pretty empty compared to...

    Please help. 84 blazer

    Just a wild guess. Have you pulled the cap and made sure the cam is actually spinning the distributor shaft/rotor? Rotor center button contacting the cap when seated?
