    How to switch from a DRW to a SRW in a 1981 K30 / 350 engine / 3 speed manual / 4x4

    To each his own. I think that's a really nice looking truck as is. As stated the easiest cheapest thing to do is just remove the inner rear tires. Leave the outer wheels turned out as is or it will look rediculous. It would work fine for you with singles. If that doesn't work for you it's going...

    Fuel Gauge passed full

    I've been chasing this for awhile but think I am closing in on it. The wiring path mentioned above is good info for tracking. The grounds, continuity, and resistor on the back of the gauge need checking. I think my problem originated last year when trying to get at the dash lights. I recently...

    I bought quite a few body and trim parts from LMC for a 56 and was impressed with everything I received. No experience with mechanical parts yet.
