    VGG 1776 Clear vs Poppy’s Glossed Out Clear

    I'll say this. No way in hell I'd use Poppy's clear of any kind/version. Lots of people that have had it lift off and bring the paint with it. Or it doesn't lay down nice and tiger stripes and then you have to sand it off to start again. IF...big if there...If I were to ever clearcoat another...

    K5 ls swap

    If you're on Facebook, join the "LS and LT Swapped Square Body GM Trucks" page and check out the files. Lots of good info there. Scotty Baccus runs the page and also owns Tejas Steelworks, they sell the mounts/transmission mounts/fan shrouds/etc to do the swap. I used his engine mounts/trans...

    Question for those that have R&R a Fuel Tank!

    Another trick is to use the opposite side sender and loop the hose long enough to drop the tank with nothing keeping it from coming all the way down next time

    Replacement Seat Opinions

    This is what I have in my truck, works fantastic. Gave me a spot to mount the console too. I used his sliders on my '04 Subaru WRX seats. I did re-drill the holes on the front brackets to get it down a bit more and drilled new holes for the seats cuz my spacing was different than what he already...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    I need to get some semi-deep sockets at some point. It's rare I need them but there's been a handful of times lately

    Bucket Seat Tutorial

    I used SloshTubz' seat base and sliders to mount some '04 Subaru WRX STI seats in my truck and then built a custom console for it. Still need to finish the console https://www.sloshtubz.net/store/SQUAREBODY-UNIVERSAL-SEAT-BASE-FRAME-p327471202 Had to do some slicing and dicing cuz the...

    Gear Ratio Help

    It's the cam. A rowdy cam doesn't like to be lugged and basically won't do anything at low speed in 4th. My daily's like that, anything below 1800-1900 and I've gotta make it downshift to get it to go anywhere

    Good R&R 16-gallon gas tank video?

    I just used strips for a '69 Camaro gas tank cuz I had a pack laying around

    RPO not ID'd

    That's strange, I don't think I've seen that style SPID without descriptions beside the codes

    Gear Ratio Help

    I'd put a 4.10 or 4.30 in it and keep the OD just in case you wanna road trip it

    85-86 ZY6 paint stripes measurements

    If...and that's a huge IF...I ever decided to change up my paint scheme, this is what I'd do. Keep the same 2 blues but do the ZY6 instead of my ZY5

    True paint code look!

    Since it's ZY3 and not ZY5, wouldn't the blue be on the bottom and/or on the roof instead of a stripe down the side?

    Pulled the body back off to get started on the TinWorks center chassis brace install as well as their front cab mount and core support mount frame brackets

    True paint code look!

    Yeah your truck would've been white and the dark metallic blue that's in the middle of my truck. My truck is a ZY5 paint code, so yours wasn't this 2-tone There's some good info in this thread: https://www.gmsquarebody.com/threads/what-body-color-paint.18505/ Also, you can request the...

    New bed side recommendations?

    I'm the AMD guy they're referencing above. I've installed several of our bedsides and other than opening up some holes and doing the normal alignment dance, they've always turned out nice. It's a very nice stamping. I'm not aware of any dealers in Nebraska off hand but Summit Racing is our...

    About Those Synthetics and Trusting Big Names

    Meh. I just run whatever has the best deal at the time. There was a bunch of research done a few years back that proved WalMart's Super Tech was some of the best oil you can buy and it's also the cheapest. I've run it, I've run Mobil 1, Castrol, STP, Pennzoil, all of them. There's so many levels...

    Tailgate graphic wrap

    Yeah I've never seen a tailgate graphic on a squarebody that wasn't airbrushed.

    LS rear main seal leaking

    Unfortunately they're right, there's several places at the back of the engine that like to leak on LS's. The oil cooler plate/block off plate has weeped or leaked on every LS I've ever had. The rear corners of the pan if the sealer gives up or was not applied, the valve covers will leak back and...

    Need People to Look at you Funny?

    Other than the gap in the rear side windows, that's kinda awesome lol. Around here, lots of people would think it's badass

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yikes, she'll definitely run better with some fresh plugs. Since it's been sitting for so long, when you start diving it I'd probably pull the plugs every so often to keep an eye on things until you get comfortable with the engine.

    Chuck’s engine build thread!

    Woah, that's a huge difference. Enough that that's gonna effect closed spring pressure. Definitely prefer the look of the Howards, but that may just be because that's the heights of what I'm used to dealing with (LS stuff sits just like that).

    all time 4 wheel drive

    As stated above, that's not an '85. I'm gonna assume that's some kinda thrown together hodgepodge of a truck. If this is something you're looking at buying, I'd be very weary of it. Pretty sure full time 4wd was gone by the time the '81-up trucks came out
