    Suburban Back to OE Grille

    You will need a rad support and all the associated parts for the 87 grill. Wiring you maybe ok. The process is pretty easy. Unbolt the whole middle and rebolt the 87 stuff.

    86 K10 pickup Column Shift problem

    The switch does have some adjustment to them so it maybe not quite in its spot and the key isn't all the way back.

    Inner rocker choices confusion.

    Full inners and outer rockers is what you would want to buy to answer your question if you haven't bought anything already. But. I would be doing floor pan patches. They come with inner rockers or at least a good portion of them. And they make lower cowl footwell patch panels.

    Externally mounted TFI module

    I knew a Ford guy too and left him in the dust. Now he drives a tesla and leaves me in the dust. We don't talk much. I remember I did the external pmd mount for the 6.5 TD and we did kinda same thing in his mustang with a old cpu cooler. It did make it last alot longer

    Haynes manual suggest silicone dielectric grease for ignition module?

    True on the white paste but it was not technically thermal paste. Its just a thick silicone/grease white paste that has a higher melting point. And it worked. They needed to put it on the pmd's on the 6.5 turbo diesels lol. Thermal paste some are still silicone/grease based but has metal...

    Haynes manual suggest silicone dielectric grease for ignition module?

    You guys know that thermal paste was not invented till the 2000s and computers got super fancy. Sure there was some other products out back then in the 90s but you had to have some big bucks to spend on a computer So technically speaking the manual is correct for the era of vehicle it was made...

    Original Headlamp Wiring

    I'm really tempted to use one of these relays on mine when I do it. My outside light rarely gets left on so give myself 30 seconds or so of headlight time to get to the door.

    1976 K10 rear shocks

    I used those rancho 9000 adjustable shocks and they were ok. I really like the bilstiens 5100s but are pricey.

    Trans Linkage parts

    I hear ya I was looking for 3.5 speaker enclosures. Couldn't find them. Until reading here lately. If you search speaker pods nothing search speaker baffle and bang there they are.

    81-87 Front Clip on a 73

    When my buddy did it he had a extra cab and cut this all in his 73 blazer. There maybe other ways to do it like with some new fancy hybrid hinges that mount on the face of the cab like are for 67 72 c10s.

    81-87 Front Clip on a 73

    You need the entire front clip and hinges assembly. Thats the biggest hurdle is the hinges. 73 are on fenders and the 80s are in the cab.

    '89 Burb V2500 JB7 Different Pad Options?

    I will say about brake pads is that the brembo ones leave a brown brake dust on everything. Napa ones if you get the commercial grade they grab like a mother after a bit and if your just creaping to a light they make noise.

    Truck shut off at stopsign on occasion should open my damper permenatly ?

    good call on the fuel stuff. ^^ Also the line being busted in the tank but usually if that brakes it don't want to restart. I wouldn't rule out your distributor. I went through 3 in one year until they finally gave me back my money and I ordered a good one. Same symptoms pull up to light and...

    Barn door won't latch fully...

    Yes those latches top and bottom slide back and forth. My barn doors do the same thing and drives me nuts. I've spent hours adjusting to get to close nice then dust comes in cause its not tight enough. I have old weather stripping too.

    Truck shut off at stopsign on occasion should open my damper permenatly ?

    Have you checked your distributor? That little vent in the bottom of it likes to plug up with dirt and corrodes the inside. That made my truck randomly die at lights. Also jiggle your keys back and forth and see what happens. The coil is hot of the ignition and if the switch is worn out it can...

    Door Speaker Depth Clearance

    I remember the plastic ones. They were junk unless you used a tube of silicone when installing them. I'm looking for some 3.5 ones all I can find are the 6.5 ones. Something for the front dash speakers. Doors would be nice aswell. If I ever get done fixing rust lol. @Doppleganger I'm...
