    Fuel gauge stuck on full

    You should be able to feel around for the ground wire. the ground wire goes from the sending unit to the top of the frame rail, fastened right next to the tank. I'll see if I got a pic. well I just tried to see on my truck but due to some surgery I can't get under the truck. but there's only...

    73-80 Chrome brush guard - make me an offer

    Curious, Did the OP sell the guard that was originally posted? It all got a little confusing for me?

    73-80 Chrome brush guard - make me an offer

    The round bars look stainless but I'd bet the flat mounting brackets are chromed steel.

    Fuel tank leak

    I doubt you will find one locally, I'd buy the LMC one and be done with it.

    Fuel tank leak

    I'd remover the filler neck housing from the box side and work on it on a bench. if the clamp is still on you can use a hacksaw or Sawzall to cut through it.

    Fuel tank leak

    I'll also go to the big box store or local plumbing supple and get an expandable pipe plug to cork the tank inlet. It will keep the gas vapors in the tank and also keep possible debris from getting in.

    Is it bad to scrap parts versus selling?

    Around here the bed is worth 400 and so are the frame and axles, cab is 200-500 depending on the amount of rot. Buy the whole package and use what you want and get rid of the rest.

    Need help please

    The E-brake cables might be hanging up from rust in their housings. Try spraying the cable housings with a good penetrating oil to free them up.

    Paint code for the black radiator support?

    Well Eastwood has a semi gloss paint they call "Underhood Paint" in lacquer. I'll probably give that a try.

    Paint code for the black radiator support?

    Ha, I'm not being a snob, and I'm not building a show queen, I just like the sheen of the original paint. VHT makes a Satin Black in rattle cans, I've used it on my frame and it's real close to the original. I just figured with the amount of paint it would take to do the wheel wells and rad...

    Paint code for the black radiator support?

    Does anyone have a code for the underhood black that's used on inner wheel houses and rad support? I'd rather not use spray cans, but if you know of a good match I'd might consider it.

    How to remove filler neck?

    I'd try a new clamp and hose before i replaced the tank. the odds of it being the solder joint on both tanks are pretty slim.
