    TMI Carpet- anyone used one?

    I am looking to order carpet for a 79 I just had roll in and there is a TMI set locally available. It looks to be a pieced in operation vs fit. Anyone used one? I have TMI seats in one of our trucks and they are good to go but the carpet baffles me a bit.

    Is there a way to install a 81-87 bumper on a 73-80 frame

    LOL circling back to this as a year later and a different truck I am looking at the same issue. I am looking at abandoning my cab rework and just using a newer non rusted cab I have. It's almost like dejavu.

    What would you pay for this truck?

    Look around. If you’ve got 3k for that you’ve got 3k for a good unit. They are still out there. I’ve been keeping my search area out in the middle of nowhere and have pulled some decent units. It requires more of your time on the haul but it’s worth it.

    Rear cab cross support- anyone sell one?

    On my 77 project I think my rear cab crossover needs a LOT of love. Looking at AMD it looks like if you buy the entire floor pan you get the support. Does anyone sell just the support?

    Custom C10 Seats and Door panels

    I had him quote doing the buckets out of my square project and it was up there. In perspective though it was about what I paid for my TMI buckets/frame/console.

    Original bucket seat cover replacements? 1977 truck

    Thank you for the reply, they look similar to the low back blazer seats. I may swing that direction first.

    Original bucket seat cover replacements? 1977 truck

    I have a 1977 K10 project with original low back buckets. Is there a source for new covers? Are they going to be the same as the blazer low backs?

    Electronic Trans Swap

    Not a 4l65e but I installed a 4L60E behind a small block. It is doable, not cheap but doable. I had to do a bit of hack at first to get the torgue converter to bolt up (I used a LS spec 4l60E). I had to have the flex plate drilled for the bolt pattern of the LS style converter and had to use a...

    6.2l L86 / 10l80 swap in a 83 k10 suburban?

    Not in a burb but I started one on my c10 to k10 build. The trans was hitting the firewall but that was due to other issues. The parts exist to make it nearly a drop in conversion. I used- Swaptime Harnesses- nice unit and great customer service. At the time they couldn’t control a 10sp so...

    I get the square ones, I don’t get them from Amazon but it’s the same thing.

    I have 2 of the shorts in my stash, they are common and both came off 700r4’s.

    1984 k10 crossmember question??

    Not correct. This one works but you have to have a 208 or other. I used one on my last project. If your going the direction of the 700/400 it should be fine. Tejas

    1985 K10 6.2- won’t turn over

    Considering it, but also considering a Craigslist rebuild on this old dog (5.7 out of an 1975 C30) and I have a returned/repaired sniper system on the shelf. Still trying to find a running 6.2 and missed one out of a burb the other day for 800

    Freeze plugs into the block- how to remove?

    I pulled this out of a truck I’m stripping and it appeared they were fixing freeze plugs but then gave up. Well we were going to replace the plugs when I discovered both passenger side plugs were driven into the blocks cooling channel. Any thoughts on removal techniques? Internet search says...
