    Is this fender original or aftermarket?

    Thanks, I was figuring it was aftermarket. I wish I knew that before I blasted and primed it but oh well. I've heard of the GM stamp but even my originals don't have it unless I'm just not seeing it. We've had the truck since new so I do know they are original. Where do I find the thread you...

    Proportion valve question

    It's been bad since the mid 90's ha, so I have to buy one anyhow. I was wondering how the Vette Master bolted on but I see now they are a bolt on.

    Is this fender original or aftermarket?

    It's really not that big of a deal, but a friend gave me a drivers side fender over 20 years ago and I stored it away. It "appeared" to be an original since I blasted what seemed like the original paint off down to the metal and sprayed it with epoxy. I'm just now getting around to fitting it...

    Proportion valve question

    Thanks much again for the reply and info, sounds good. Are you running the factory truck booster? Mine will sit factory height (level) with a larger tire in the rear also. I have the kit that uses 76 Eldorado calipers and Astro van front rotors for the rear. I appreciate the part numbers...

    Proportion valve question

    What year C3 fits? I searched C3 Vette and it shows they ran from 1967 to 1982. Thanks.

    Proportion valve question

    Thanks much for the reply and info. How does it do when you get down on them hard? Do you know the difference between the PV72 and the PV4? Both show the same line sizes and disc/disc. Maybe different pressures? I searched for several hours and all I found was somebody that said they used...

    Proportion valve question

    Now I'm seeing the PV2 valve is for disc/drum and the PV4 or PV72 are both being used but I'm trying to find out the difference.

    Proportion valve question

    I'm getting ready to blast and paint my frame for my 78 C10 2wd. I want to do all the brake lines while everything is easy to get to. I have a rear disc set up I'll be using and I'm unsure of what direct "bolt on" proportion valve and booster to use. I have done a lot of research already and...

    To remove or not to paint frame?

    Lego, on your second pic from the top, what are those two plates on the floor? I see them bolted on in your top pic. Are those just for lifting? Thanks.

    To remove or not to paint frame?

    After seeing your pics it's coming out today,ha. May as well since I can blast it at home like I did the cab and all the other parts. If I don't do it I'll regret it later even if you can't tell whether or not it's been out, but I'll know.

    Nice, thank you. I'll check out your thread. That cross member looks heavy.

    To remove or not to paint frame?

    Yes, I believe it's the k member, no rivets that I can see.

    To remove or not to paint frame?

    This one has three bolts on each side. The support underneath the engine. I'm building it as show and light driving but no mirrors on the floor or anything like that. Just local shows.

    To remove or not to paint frame?

    Hello, I'm not sure if I should have posted this in the paint and body section but since it's suspension I figured I'd start here. I'm fixing to sand blast and paint my frame for my 78 2wd. My question is I'm not sure if I should remove the lower front frame cross piece that's under the...

    hood cable broken

    I'm interested as well since I'm putting a cable latch on my non cable truck. I have all the components and have been thinking of rigging something up to make opening easy in case the cable breaks.

    Body to frame webbing??

    Thanks much! That's exactly what I thought. This truck never squeaked so It'll go back like it was without "webbing".

    Body to frame webbing??

    Hello, I did search and can't find an answer. I see on LMC truck they offer "body to frame webbing" for 73-87 C10. Part # 38-7460 for 25.95, 30ft roll. My questions is: Is this "webbing" on these trucks from the factory? I tore my 78 down to restore and it didn't have any that I remember...

    84 C10 rear drum brake shoe picture?

    I have a 78, not sure how similar they are but when I get back from work later today I'll take a few pics. That is unless someone post some of the same year as years before I get there.

    Where's the weld(s)?

    I put a side on a 73 over 20 years ago and it had welds but I don't remember the weld details. I guess some may have come with some type of bond material, prob later models. Not sure.

    Where's the weld(s)?

    Sounds good, thanks for the reply. I was wondering if they were only spot welds or full beads. I still have the factory seam sealer or whatever it is so it's hard to tell. I'll have to blast it all off anyhow but it's good to know they're only spot welds. Sounds good, thanks for the...

    Where's the weld(s)?

    Hello all. Are there welds on all three places with arrows on a bed side? I got this pic from the internet, it's not mine. I'm just trying to decide whether or not to sand blast my bed together or in pieces so I can get in all the crevices. Thanks.
