I'm only going to use the front part for the cab, but would like to see pics of the mounting brackets up close, out of and installed on anyones truck please? I think the guy said the boards I'm...

    HELP?

    It works very well and did the job in a pinch. I'm keeping it on my phone in case my new cable breaks. Seems the original length cables aren't available. Only too long, or stretched to just barely fit. So far it's doing ok

    Seatbelt question

    I have always hated 12 point sockets. They always seem to slip off the bolt or nut.

    OEM Seat cover question

    Check your SPID. My 84 Sierra 2500 currently has a velour seat, but the SPID says it actually came with a vinyl seat

    HELP?

    When my Speedo cable broke a few weeks ago, I downloaded a speedometer app on my iphone. It was pretty accurate. I set my phone on my dash so I could see it. When I got my new cable, I used it in conjunction with the speedo and they were matched.

    New guy, father and son from CA

    Great looking truck. I'm partial to all original, and long beds. I started a group on Facebook called "All Original Squarebodies", and the membership has exploded. I didnt think that many people were interested, but was I wrong. Keep that old truck up, buddy!

    slow wiper motor

    Thankyou for that info. I'll start with cleaning the linkage and making sure it's not sticking and go from there. I will also keep in mind the info about wiper motor brands.

    slow wiper motor

    Good Morning, and hope you all have a good weekend. I have a question about my wiper motor. I have an 84 Base model Sierra(C2500), and when I first turn on the wipers, they are real slow, but then get to normal speed, on low and high. Also, my washers don't work, but all I see is a rebuild kit...

    Windshield antenna connection

    I used duct tape to hold mine on. My truck(84 Sierra, Base model) had a fender antenna originally. It was cheaper to buy a windshield with the antenna in it, than not

    Dumbo Mirror Question

    My 84 had 1 of those huge tow mirrors on it so I put the original style on it as well. I need to replace my doors as whoever had the truck before me, actually pulled the tow mirrors off and left wallowed out holes at the top. I got 2 of the "S" shaped supports for it online, so will use those...

    Painting dash pad

    I used Krylon Fusion paint on my door panels and dash pad. My dash pad is trashed anyways and it's covered with a dash mat. Also did my console, which was originally tan.

    Dent removal

    What would be the best way to get this dent out of the side of my truck? I have tried 2 different suction cup pullers, single and double, and have tried from the back side but no room due to the gas tank. Do I have to remove the bed? I was hoping to do it the easy way. This is the best picture...

    Sliding Rear Window Restoration/Parts

    If my memory serves me right, I thought I saw replacement latches on one of the truck parts sites. I'll look and see if I can find them

    Cab roof lights

    Screws aren't poking through. What is the best way to run the wiring between the roof layers? Fishing line? How would I attach each light to the main wire? Sorry guys. I guess I should have done some research before doing these lights.

    What do I need to do? This is a set from LMC and this is how it says to wire it. I thought it was weird but.....

    Dent removal

    What would be the best way to get out this dent in the side of my bed? I have tried from behind, but no luck due to the gas tank being in the way, and I've tried 2 different suction cup pullers, but they wont "stick" to the metal. I'm thinking I have to lift the bed, or remove it, as I need to...

    Cab roof lights

    Good morning everyone. I've added these roof lights to my truck, and have one wire going to power, but it's supposed to go through a separate rocker switch. I want to hook into my light switch so they are on whenever the lights are on, but not sure how to do this. Do I tap into the light switch...

    Show your daily driver

    Our other daily driver. 2003 Crown Vic Police Interceptor. Got it in 2013 from a good friend and has been the best car we've owned so far. It came from the local PD in Camp Verde, AZ: Yavapai-Apache Police, no pursuits, or hard use. Only the usual maintenance has been done: Coil packs, and plugs...

    Hubcap restoration

    Here's my caps in November 2019 when I bought the ruck. I have one good one, and as you can see in the before and after pics, the other 3 aren't so good. I will be eventually getting the truck painted in Strata Blue(USAF) and hope to get 3 more good caps, but thought I'd try my hand at restoring...

    Hubcap restoration

    I have the stock hubcaps on my 84 Sierra C2500, but only one is shiny like original. The other 33 are almost milky in appearance. I have tried 0000 steel wool, soap pads but nothing works. Anything I can do to bring the original shine(anodized) back short of replacing them? I'm needing to...

    Vent window handle replacement

    My problem is on my 84, is I can't get the pin that holds the handle on, out. I tried lightly tapping it with a center punch, but no luck. I don't want to break the glass, so what is the secret? Would a spray lube possibly help(PB Blaster, WD-40)?
