    Hood

    Will the hood off of a 1981 Chevy GMC fit 1980 GMC k3500? How does the shape of headlights affect what Hood fits what truck?

    17-in rims

    My 1980 GMC k 30 dual wheel truck came with 16-in rims from the factory, tires for this 16 in are getting harder to find so I thought of upgrading to the 17 in, the problem is GMC went to metrics and finding a set of dual wheels that will fit that can be a challenge but I found that Dodge did...

    700r4

    I'm not real sure the size of the camshaft in this truck, the way it idles it's definitely not stock, maybe I can talk to a crowler representative and explain what I got perhaps change the camshaft with lifters just to be on the safe side but the engine is very strong and it's not that old since...

    700r4

    I think everyone for your replies! The advice is priceless and seems a lot of headache with experimenting, I will look into getting some gears in the 308 range and hopefully that will make this truck very happy!

    700r4

    I don't quite understand how to link one of my posts that talks about the 700R4, to this post it's in one of my only three posts regarding my truck, I had to post about gears and what size differential gears may have came in my 1980 GMC 1 ton, my father ordered it from the factory with a 400...

    700r4

    In a previous post it was mentioned that I should get a 700 r4 transmission and put in my truck, what would be the most cost-effective way to acquire one of these and to either rebuild it or ensure that it's in good working order?

    Good, body parts

    Maybe this Hood wouldn't be an exact replacement?

    Good, body parts

    This Hood one day decided to buckle in the middle when we tried to close it, I've seen other hoods that have done this too so it must be characteristic of the hood after many years?

    Thank you for the help! I don't know how much I will try to restore this thing, Unfortunately the steering column was changed to, my brother took everything out of another truck, put it all in this one to make it work.

    Gears

    I misspoke, it seems like the gears are too low I haven't driven it in many years but it seems like at 50 or 55 mph the tack is anywhere between 25 and 3,000, my father ordered this from the factory so I remember the Gear ratio is 410, but pictures will have to wait because my truck is at my...

    Gears

    My 1980 GMC 1 ton truck came from the factory with four 10 gears 400 engine and a th400 tranny, my brother put a 454 in it with a three speed manual transmission and it seems like the differential gears are too high, my question is what size differential gears would have came with a manual...
