    What have you done to your square lately??

    I have been to NCDMV every day this week with 6 trips but finally got my 79 registered. I'm enjoying my first sunset with it legal to drive.

    First post and introduction

    Roger that. I don't get that far south usually. I may take them off exit 49 and down NC53 to White Lake occasionally though. I have a '76 High Sierra K15 that I am hoping to get around to fixing soon. I've had it for over 30 years and it is definitely in need of restore. Again, welcome in and...

    First post and introduction

    Let me welcome you with a neighborly Harnett County hello! Thanks for sharing the pics of the '76 as well. I see Cumberland Co. once a week usually with my Driver's Ed route. What part are you in if you don't mind me asking? HS

    New fella sweet truck!

    Welcome from the Tarheel State just to your south. Share some pics of that rad ride & I'm certain some of these folks will share some diagnostic info with you. Let's begin with asking if the carb is mechanical or electric choke? HS

    NP203 removal and rebuild

    GM offered manual (stick) shift throughout the entire run of Squares. I have a 76 SM465/NP205 K15 & 78 K25 with the same setup. Heck, 25 years ago I had a K10 with the overdrive 4-speed/NP208. I'm not understanding your question right or something... Half-Stumped

    Tranny issue for a newbie

    Check the fluid level with it at operating temperature. If it's 4x4 make certain the transfer case isn't in neutral. HS

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Putting in the hours & the work but it is closer than it was on Thursday. Now comes all the hook-up & body aligning.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Doing rust repair the...easy...way. My old PA K10 is a rusty hag for certain & me & SIL just scored this local C10 as a donor. I really hate cutting up good trucks but this one was advertised as "no title" so I figured I'd use it instead of letting it meet the crusher (possibly). We're using...

    Question about center support bearing.

    I changed one out last year and just used the cut-off wheel to remove the center race. I believe it was the easiest center bearing that I ever replaced. I totally agree with @DoubleDingo about it not being easy to go to the parts house and get the correct stuff either. Chinesium and the google...

    Welcome from Central NC. I agree with @Moodyalaskan that the rim diameter isn't as crucial as is the tire diameter. Great looking truck BTW. HS

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Roger that. Aluminum heads is a fair amount already and I don't blame you one iota if you have the time and budget to go the extra mile. Doing a 383 is going to involve machine work on the pan rail and crankshaft area anyway. Keep us informed on the progress. HS

    What have you done to your square lately??

    To be fair...a machinist ALWAYS wants to bore, deck, square and broach the same way that the doctor wants you to take each test imaginable. Sometimes the budget doesn't include spending the extra cash on many new parts. I have had several "refurbished" or "refreshed" engines that gave great...
