    What’s #15 mean?

    It means toss that book and get another one of better quality. A shoe is for drum brakes, disc's require brake pads.

    Yes, but took a bath big time on the replacement cab I scored for a great deal. $100 for a rust free cab with a small dent in the roof. I am not a paint and body guy so I took it to a local body shop. I had had it media blasted so they had bare metal to start with and we are at over 80 hrs...

    Working on my 77 K25 Sierra Grande and have kind of hit a road block. Anyone know of a source to get a grille for a 77 GMC? Here is a pic of my current grille, but would love to replace with a nicer stock one. Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
