    Cracks in transfer case

    use a large sharpie after cleaning the surface, then wipe the same area with a cleaning wipe just across the surface one time, if its a crack it should penetrate a bit but then the wipe will or should eliminate most of above-surface stuff

    There is 2 detent cable styles, 79 should be early… but I’m not sure

    Odd cable/control going to foot feed.

    Interesting other find. Didn’t know they branded anything as “sierra” only back then This is a gmc crane truck medium duty , the glovebox is unique but it looks compatible with squares. It’s kinda simple and no nonsense. The dash has a set of 4 dummy lights across the top not sure what they...

    17 inch steel wheels- 81 C10 2wd 5/6 static drop.

    Don’t they make absurdly large like 20 inch wheels in that style?

    17 inch steel wheels- 81 C10 2wd 5/6 static drop.

    19 inch tires tend to be cheaper than 18 inch

    17 inch steel wheels- 81 C10 2wd 5/6 static drop.

    Wdym by square ? I was just saying if you have wider rear wheels but same tire you’re going to have at least the appearance of the tire change axles and the wider ones up front may not match what you hope to see. The logic of the rear wheel being wider is there but by having the different...

    Do you plan to rotate only side to side then?

    Verajet heat soak?!?!?

    also its not trying to shove more fuel at the carb than it can use, thats just needlessly pushing and adding heat

    Verajet heat soak?!?!?

    convert to a three port fuel pump, if you install a new fuel tank sender for having a third port , then the fuel pump, just run a line to enable this. if you didnt want to change fuel pump you could run a external fuel filter with 3 connections on it that would hook up to your pipe connecting to...

    Caster adjustment question?

    MORE CASTER! Jk, its not necessary and would mean need more assist to steer easily, and on something like this they werent meant to have a lot anyway... but caster is good we want more! Just like the shopping carts!

    Part Choice-Brake System

    I think they usually have a hard pipe threaded into the CARB or tbi, so maybe no bracket

    i think if they are talking about a transfer case in neutral vs a sm465 in neutral that too may be a big part too. but a 11 or 13 inch drum with a set parking brake should be pretty damn strong.. lol

    Part Choice-Brake System

    for example this is wrong. To me if you dont have the factory bracket/pipe that holds it vertical off the valve cover area, its worth forming a pipe of the right diameter and using a hose to span the carb nipple to the new pipe (put a flare on it) then form the pipe into the area below the...

    Part Choice-Brake System

    false, its for gasoline vapors to be absorbed by the filter whhich will be sucked into the engine when its running. its to prevent the booster diaphrams from degrading from the fuel vapors. It was gone on gmt400, which had TBI. but on a carb i understand why its there. it MUST be installed...

    Odd cable/control going to foot feed.

    shouldnt it have those arms that stabalize into the ground kinda like a fire truck? Still not understanding why it would be needed to "lock" the front and rear brakes hydraulically with a parking brake. Maybe im not understanding something?

    Odd cable/control going to foot feed.

    line locks on air brake vehicle makes sense. on hydraulic brake, that doesnt sound smart... from factory this would be unwise on a vehicle old enough with a single system master, but on split just dont tap both circuits. what is the purpose of wanting to use line locks for you? Is the parking...

    Was wrong about the gauges, the truck has a vacuum not an air pressure. I suppose this was before hydroboost so was that for maintaining safe amounts of vacuum for braking?

    the passenger door didnt match the driver door , heres a pic of the dump truck You can see the door panels are different so prob a donor door on one side This c65 has a lot of gears plus what I think is an auxiliary overdrive or gear splitter, that switch maybe for the rear axle taped to the...

    if you wanted to lol, just realize you can sell the gauge for a lot so worth looking
