Orange Peel Trouble
Nothing meant, but my dad has been painting since the early '80's when I was 10'ish. Anyway, I asked him about orange peel. He rattled off a bunch of science/experience. Can I remember it no. Did I ever see a paint job by him that had orange peel.....no. Guessing he looked at it as...- Camar068

I need direction.
and a suggestion...change the title to "LS swap...I need direction". The way it is, it's as open as red worms for bluegill or 33 inch tires on a vega just by reading the title lol. Just a thought lol. An admin can change it for you to get more views.- Camar068

I need direction.
Engine mounts, A/C, transmission mount and drivetrain, wiring harness, fuel system, exhaust, cooling (electric or not), speed source (VSS signal) for the computer AND speedometer, removing vats from your PCM. I'm sure I missed a few, but that is a good starting list of things you need to...- Camar068

All bolts in....will get chrome lights for the plates tomorrow -
What new tools have you got lately?
I stand corrected. It's $179. The $75 item was the little wooden chest sitting on top of the display table. My apologies. https://www.harborfreight.com/60-in-3-drawer-hardwood-workbench-58832.html -

Best idea for support for painting truck bed?
2 cheap saw horses They'll hold -
What have you done to your square lately??
I may have a bead welded around the edge or a piece of metal tacked on the edge. Hell a few "dress" bolts shot up from the bottom with the nuts on top may suffice. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Installed step bumper. Leaving drivers side a tad loose to cold bend it up. Trying to figure out if chrome carriage bolts and plate lights or black. Make it not so blacked out. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Got the rear bumper off. Had the truck backed up to a retaining wall for ease of muscle bar bolt breaking. I put bolts in the other 2 holes in case it decided to drop. Had I looked closer....it wasnt going anywhere with all bolts out lol. I had to smack it a few times to get it to let loose... -
What have you done to your square lately??
is that a crack on the bottom right bolt? Hope not....thought I'd point it out, sorry. Might be a scratch.....going from 1 o'clock to 7 o'clock. -
What have you done to your square lately??
where the tail gate hinges, mine were rusted....that's half the reason I put new bedsides in. Other half was because of the rust that builds behind the chrome over the wheel....the stuff u don't see until it's too late. No more chrome on my sh|t. It's perty....but damn it all lol. -
Speaker pods/General stereo questions
you don't have to depend on solder core. i use solder paste. If anything you'll use too much which can be cleaned up with alcohol. Good thing about the paste is you can see the heat start to flow with the melting of it....then the "flow" I mentioned above. In my eye's, better to have too...- Camar068

I've been thinking about a notebook or something in the vehicle for the same reason. -
What new tools have you got lately?
wanted to get a "spread" laser line tool to line up the LS upper mount A/C to the crank. $65 at HF. Will be looking at other options. -
What have you done to your square lately??
Bumper step getting close. Muscle bar and only 2 bolts left on the truck. Only 1 didnt break. 2 didnt break on the replacement. Chassis paint on the inside and rustoleum primer then rustoleum 2x gloss black on the outside until I ran outta paint (2 cans). -
Those wind/rain deflector thingys...
few years ago when I went to install them on replacement doors, luckily I remembered they touched. So when I installed new ones on the replacement doors I opened the wings and changed the location of the deflectors as needed.- Camar068

Speaker pods/General stereo questions
While hot, use flux on the tip of your soldering iron then quickly wipe off with a rag. Make sure it's clean. Just a couple tips to soldering....it's super easy once you "see" the solder flow. Good example video below with and with out flux. With Flux, you'll "see" the wire "take" the...- Camar068

Saw this shortly after I posted. Might be an option for me to use the old style hose on the new compressor. Sanden Rear Cover R4 -
R4 to Sanden whith stock ac lines(for serpantine)
I'd like to see hoses that we can grab from a junkyard that will work for this swap. My compressor has separate connections and custom hoses are ~$250+. It's Four Seasons 58580. I can start a new post if needed. -
What have you done to your square lately??
received evap, condensor, LS sanden high mount, and other a/c stuff. Waiting for compressor. Will have to order custom hoses.
