    Installing windshield in a Squarebody

    Pinch weld first yes, glass second as stated above. We had to do ours twice because Easton chose a one piece gasket first and once installed had large gaps and leaked everywhere. Went to a two piece and been dry ever since. Used Precision gaskets.

    Single din install problem

    @plugugly , the kit when you get it has the two post holes intact on the template… you cut those out and you are good to go if that’s the route you choose. Post pics when you’re finished ! We love pictures

    Single din install problem

    @plugugly, They make a template that connects to three faceplate corner screws on dash and it works real well. Some kits are made of plastic (what we used) some are steel depends on vendor. The radio slides in, then faceplate then dash bezel and you are finished. There is no weight to the...

    Replacing carb

    Easton put an Edelbrock performer with electric choke on his about year and a half ago when original Carter started spewing gas everywhere. He loves it and we did nothing to it other than slap it on and start it up. Truck runs great, and he loves the choke. Randy and E

    Ammeter

    @hoagster , we just did the swap a month ago. Never wanted to go to that much trouble is why we did it by stealing power from the temp gauge. It was super easy and I did not have to take out cluster which I hope I never have to do again!! Randy and Easton

    Easton used no gaskets front or back just permatex “right stuff” and it’s been perfect going on 2 years

    First time replacing intake manifold gaskets

    Great info here @johnswie. Easton did his when he was 14 and it was not that bad at all, and the timing was the easiest part. You can do it.

    Mirror and Vent Windows

    We did ours, they were a pain but even an amateur can do it. If I had to do it over would have used Precisions rebuilds program as mentioned above. It’s turn key , powder coated frames and all hardware. A big time saver, and stress and cussing reducer….

    High Pressure Gas shooting out filler hole

    agree with all above, needs a vent. We had a similar issue with a strong gas smell around the truck all the time. Had a vented cap at the time (PO). We finally found the vent tube was cut and plugged (PO) by the radiator support and lower radiator hose. Could not find a factory charcole...
