    Fix Slamming Doors - Striker Door Latch Repair

    That's what I used, except mine is blue to match the interior, lol. Put it on several years ago and doors close great. No need to buy the whole striker unless yours is rusted or damaged. I bought a 1 foot piece and it will last me forever. If anyone local to me has a need for some, during our...

    Upper door weatherstrip question.

    I recently saw a picture or a post somewhere, I can't remember of an 81-87 pickup with weatherstrip along the top of the door as well as around the door frame. Were there some models that had this? If so, how would I know if my 84 C2500 base would have had it? Thanks and hope you're all having a...

    Underside of hood coating ideas?

    Back in the 90's, my best friend had a bedliner business, and I had him spray the underside of the hood of my 65 Suburban(gloss black). Yes it added weight, but it looked killer and sounded very solid. I also had him do the gas tank on my original 65 Chevy II Nova 4 door. Rocks were always...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Going to replace all the steel brake lines on my 84 Sierra 2500 daily driver. I cant get the front rubber line off as it's pretty well stuck so might as well replace it all. Got all 4 pieces at inlinetube.com for under $100

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Just about where I put mine only to the left more. Bad idea. I can't see it. Looked great as I was leaning over installing it though, lol

    What have you done to your square lately??

    My wife had a knee revision in Flagstaff June 27th but for a couple of months before we were driving I-17 from Cottonwood to Flagstaff for pre op appointments and 17 South was really bad as they were working on it. People including trucks were driving on the right shoulder to avoid the huge...

    Whats you gas mileage on your squarebody truck?

    I get about 8! I replaced the vacuum lines, has a new distributor, carb in 2019, and getting new plugs and wires. Runs smooth at idle, but under a load, it feels like it's missing. Sending it in to the shop in a couple weeks to have it all checked out

    Starter wires near exhaust manifold

    Does anyone have a picture of the tube that was mentioned? I never knew there was such a thing. Mine is long gone as I have an aftermarket 350 in my 84 Sierra

    Spark plug wires

    I have a drawing of the routing out of my 84 shop manual. I'll look at it and see how they were routed. I don't have any holders either, and want the cleanest look I can get.

    Spark plug wires

    Do you get a pretty good fit with them? I looked those up just now, and even after entering my vehicle info all the sites show are for 1999 and up. Do you have a part number? Thanks

    Spark plug wires

    I have a new distributor, and the it doesn't have the cover ring. My old one didn't either

    Spark plug wires

    What can you all recommend for a factory fit set of wires for a 350? The set I got from Autozone are definitely universal. Some are very long and some are short. I need something that fit the way they are supposed to. I would prefer pre made but if need be, a set I can cut and put boots and ends...

    Cab roof lights

    Update: Went to my local auto electric shop and he told me to use a butt connector on the end, then strip some of the coating from the feeder wire where the lights are. Did that, wrapped the light wire around the stripped feeder wire and taped them as he said. Got them hooked up and working. Got...

    Which is the correct seatbelt?

    Thanks. I like the metal ones better anyways, lol

    Which is the correct seatbelt?

    I have a question for everyone. My 84 Sierra has had these 2 different styles of seatbelts in it since I bought it in 2019. Which is the correct one? The plastic buckle or the metal? Thanks

    base GMC dash emblem

    Thanks. I haven't used Speedway for several years and forgot about them.

    base GMC dash emblem

    Does anyone repop these? I know the High Sierra ones are available, but can't seem to find a base truck emblem. I repainted mine and will use it as it's good enough for a daily driver until I can find a new one

    What have you done to your square lately??

    These were on the truck when I bought it in 2019. Yeah I know. Why did it take you so long to change them? Got the most important stuff fixed: U-Joints and carrier bearing, sway bar bushings, Carb etc.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    New rear shocks. The old ones we're pretty well trashed. Hopefully these will eliminate some of the bouncing when I go over holes, ruts, etc. When I go around a corner and there are holes in the blacktop, it feels if the truck jumps as it goes around the corner. Roads here suck!! ADOT likes to...

    Rear Main Seal

    My dad always told me, that if you use any type of "stop leak" what else is it going to plug up?

    Grille restoration

    I wish I could restore my 84 GMC grille, but it's too far gone. I only have to mounting points to hold it in and that's the 2 screws on top. Few fins broken out like most of them. I cleaned and painted it in 2019 when I got the truck and hoping it don't come out while driving

    Bubbling fuel filter

    I'm running a stock fuel pump. No issues until the day I posted this. Now the engine started dieseling a little when it's hot.

    Picture Please: No Spare Tire Holder

    I used to have a 65 Suburban, which had an underbody carrier on it, but the original owner took it off and made this for it. Simple steel bracket with all thread that goes through the rim with a plate over the center hole.
