    never jerk a stuck truck with a chain

    I don't do any yanking when I help get a vehicle out of a ditch in the winter time....that's about all the recovery I ever need to do. If I can't pull them out, I can get them a ride to a towing outfit. I live in a semi remote area and folks do help each other. I think I will go ahead and get...

    never jerk a stuck truck with a chain

    I have done this many times and not cut the strap. But is the pin strong enough? Looks like the pin is still intact in the pictures where the hitch broke. I am using a tow strap, 3" x 30 ft...is that only for towing? Should it be a 'recovery strap'?

    Is it a problem to connect my strap to the receiver hitch using the pin?

    AFR GAUGE addition?

    That 90 deg part next to the air cleaner must be what I'm looking for. I have the short acordian piece,and thought that went on the air cleaner. Thanks for the pic I now see it goes on the front radiator support. Do you know where I can buy that other piece?

    1987 Fresh Air Intake

    Looking at the LMC catalog they only list the air hose connection from the air cleaner to the front grill for trucks up to 1986. My 1987 is the first of the TBI injection engines, anybody know what is different? The LMC 1986 part number is 38-4359. My truck has a 2" cowl hood...is there a...

    I'm surprised that a simple hose clamp can contain that pressure.

    K10 Frame Body Mount Looks like K30??

    Maybe the truck was rebuilt with a different K30 frame years ago.
