    PVC and PEX for Compressed Air

    It would be important to note here the service pressure. A high line vs. a regulated line is a whole nother bunch of grapes. Call me old fashioned but for a high line I want steel. A regulated line can be whatever you are comfortable with. I am also not a fan of shark bite or compression...

    Best way to transport 19 55 gallon barrels?

    Glad you made it to safety prior to the rust monster attacking. In my youth we cut waste oil with any solvent handy. Diesel, gas, kerosene, fuel oil, or whatever. If you can get it out of a nozzle to apply, you win. when fighting the rust monster. Eric

    Best way to transport 19 55 gallon barrels?

    no advice on stacking or transport. However Capt. obvious says if using the plastic barrels for garbage you need to cut the top off inside the the rigid ring. if not they deform and flop all over the place. Ask me how I know? lol I cut my first batch the wrong way. Eric

    87 door window track

    The track is most likely bent, or tweaked. I had the same on my 87. Found a set of doors that were complete trash and pulled the guts out to swap in mine. Problem solved. Holding them side by side I could not tell what the issue was, it was beer thirty though. lol Eric

    The 1986 bent and bruised C10 SWB

    Howdy and welcome. Local body shop with a frame machine should do the trick. Full frame trucks are easy to straighten enough to save. Unibodies not so much. Eric

    Shocks are like steel bars.

    I only drove my truck about 200 miles after the rough country lift was installed. It took another 2 to 3 hundred miles to break in the suspension. Be patient with your new install. It will take a while to be able to drive it without spilling your road soda. Eric

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I did not do anything per say, except drive it to the package store at 4:30 for a case of beer. F social media, if you want new friends do what I did. lol I was there so long talking to people about my rig, I put the tailgate down, grabbed a beer, and got after it. Good times, makes the blood...

    Red Oxide Primer

    My other two cents. You have come this far with prep work, your going to get a decent job. You do not want a problem with top coats peeling off primer or worse yet the base layer making the top coat soft. Call the factory help line and ask them. Eric

    Red Oxide Primer

    Thick layers of primer are not your friend. I would shoot a test panel to check for coverage ability before I did anything else. Eric

    Any Tricks for stuck oil filter ?

    My donor engine had one MF stuck filter when I got it. I tried everything mentioned here and still no go. Old mechanic buddy gave me his snap on version of this to try. It came off like butter. WTF? I consoled my ego by convincing myself that all my previous efforts had loosened it, lol Eric

    LMC carpet color for '87 standard cab

    If you have not read the reports on replacement dash pads, do so immediately. Paying someone or you saving your oem pad yourself is the way to go. Eric
