    Power steps

    Those are freaking cool, look like the mini version of what's on my Frod Expedition. Expensive, but cool.

    Is there posi in this?

    It's a locker if you weld those spider gears together. But please don't.

    I fount this, any ideas?

    That piece is a GM-style interior trim or panel retainer, specifically one of the hinged / swiveling quarter-panel or cargo-area tie-down/clip screws used on 70s–80s GM trucks and Suburbans. What it looks like it does The wood-screw portion goes into a plastic or metal interior panel. The...

    Another 700R4 question

    This is a violent quick thing, for falling out of fourth would it be more of a slipping?

    Another 700R4 question

    I did in my first post. I'm sure he's a very busy guy. Maybe if I say it 3 times like Beetlejuice he will appear. @NickTransmissions @NickTransmissions @NickTransmissions

    Another 700R4 question

    I figured I'd go for the ChatGPT diagnosis..... Worn or sticking TCC Apply Valve (VERY common 700R4 problem) This is the #1 cause of violent lockup dropouts. Inside the pump, the TCC regulator valve bore wears. When it suddenly vents fluid, the converter clutch drops out instantly, not...

    To buy or not to buy, for daily usage.

    In high school in the '90s, I had my current 1981 C-10, and a 1986 Camaro Z28. I put Bridgestone Blizzak snow tires (which had just come out) on the Camaro in the Massachusetts winter, and that thing was unstoppable. My C-10, with regular all-season tires and posi, was horrible in comparison...

    Another 700R4 question

    I have an aftermarket fuel injection intake that is designed for 700R4 TV cable geometry. I tested the line pressure on initial setup 3,500 miles ago, all was good. It still shifts perfectly/appropriately in all gears. Just this popping out of gear feeling thing. And it's not consistent which is...

    ATK Engine Swap in 1980 Chevrolet C10

    I've never had one, just the reputation I've heard. And an F from BBB isn't great. https://www.bbb.org/us/tx/grand-prarie/profile/engines/atk-high-performance-engines-0875-90932158

    Where was USA1? Oh wait, they'll probably show up in a year and a half.

    Another 700R4 question

    Yes, another 700R4 question. As I have worked out nearly all the bugs in my truck since finishing it, this one now pops up not too long ago. In 4th gear, in lockup cruising on the highway, I occasionally get this thing where the best way to describe it is it feels like the transmission is...

    USA1 Industries

    I wish LMC would buy USA1. Not everything about LMC is great, but I've never had a single problem with them as far as knowing if something is in stock or not, shipping times, etc. And I've made a LOT of orders with LMC.

    Vintage Air Gen 5 worth it?

    If you have a perfectly working factory system I would stick with that. I put the Gen IV Vintage air in my 1981 non-ac cab. It definitely works great, coming from no AC. The down side I would say is it is pretty loud on full fan speed, and plus it doesn't draw in any outside fresh air as it is...

    Can anyone ID this suspension setup?

    Can anyone ID this suspension setup?

    For the rear, that is a traction bar for reducing axle wrap and wheel hop. I have them, I've never seen anyone else with them before. I can tell you they are simple but they work...

    700R4 Aftermarket

    Makes sense to me. Your trans was built in 1986. The 1990 Corvette 700R4 I am running was built in 1989 based on the number.

    700R4 Aftermarket

    What king of power are you making? And the real question is who is making that Jegs or Summit transmission, cause it obviously isn't them. I would encourage you to have your transmission rebuilt and beefed up by a locally reputable shop before buying a mystery trans from one of the big box...
