    Wanting to add factory power locks

    Ordered the truck without power windows, without adjustable steering wheel, without cruise and without power locks. Power locks are the only regret!

    fluid change

    More or less 4 quarts. My pan was distorted so I replaced it, fairly inexpensive. Also a good time to add a drain plug, no way out of making a mess!

    85 vent windows

    Scuff and paint, trim black, did mine as well. Windwings are a PITA, leave them alone if at all possible. My 2 cents

    K5 Blazer repaint cap body color or white? How to remove fading paint on fiberglass.

    Original color was probably white, mine was. After considerable consideration I had it repainted white, probably single stage. Saw one painted the body color, didn’t look as good as the white, my opinion. Any other color combination would look as if it came off another truck.

    A/C Compressor

    Drain the oil change the accumulator, and the orifice tube. The orifice tube often gets stuck, you might consider leaving it in there than to destroy it and still being unable to remove it. MOST important, use an ESTER oil. PAG oil is a corrosive and may take out the evaporator! My 2 cents LOL

    1978 C15 Short Bed Step Side Leaf Spring Question

    Ordered the truck with heavy duty springs. Forty years later I would like a little softer ride. Spring shop said they could level the truck and give it a softer ride by re-arching and maybe remove a leaf, came with 5. As for the front, the old springs would be softer than replacing them with new.

    255/60/15 vs 275/60/15

    I saw these, looked to fill the wheelwells. 265/75/15’s if I blow up the picture, could be 255’s

    3” header back exhaust pipe kit for 2wd?

    I just ordered tail pipes from Walker, sales were very helpful after I sent an information request. You might try them, couldn’t hurt. This is what they sent me, I was having trouble finding the double tailpipes out the side that came with the truck.
