    Rear Brakes Locking Up

    i really don't have much to add but; does the '10' series truck have a valve in the rear? the one that opens up as the weight in the bed increases? if it did, and was removed, then the back gets full juice even with no weight on the wheels. my K20 4K ultra HD does and it still works properly...

    Did this K20 come factory with catalytic converter?

    my 85 k20 has the C6P option which, as you said, put it over the threshold for 'no cats'. i don't know the specifics of the camper special though a non C6P k20, of that era, would have cats i expect. i'm no expert or even a novice at what a truck needs to pass inspection in states that require...

    2005 Ram 2500 Free Spin Install & Other Goodies

    i was just messing with ya when you asked what will fill the void. :) the hemi and i are outside of salem, which is south of rolla. this pic is from getting the rear brakes squared away but you can see the rear wheel arches are rotten. just cosmetics. the poor ol' truck starts/runs great...

    Intro & opinion

    mighty kind, but now i'm sad i'm a hermit that never goes anywhere. way too far even for sweet truck parts. :( i'll live. stepside might have been over played from time to time but if you go stepside, it would be SWEET. flatbed are useful but my memories are always stake sides 6 feet tall...

    Hard starting after sitting for a few days

    i am sub-novice skill/understanding level but i'll share my sure-fire startup ;) turn key on, half a beat while my chinamart tach 'calibrates' itself. slow press of gas pedal to floor with slow release. crank truck. 1thousand one, 1thousand two, 1thousand three (maybe a 1thousand four) -if...

    Old Bedliners

    i've found those hard plastic 'corrugated/channelized' liners don't trap moisture as bad as some. air can move around a little better than the rubber mat stuff that seems to accelerate the rust-out process. :) good luck 'monkey

    Rochester Quadrajet Woes

    the divorced choke is a good sign it's the 'right time frame' quadrajet. my '85 uses an electric 'all on the carb' choke. i agree that not firing on ether or dribbled gas down the throat points at an ignition problem. maybe in addition to a fuel delivery issue. (my truck came with a...
