    US General Tool Carts, Tool Chests, Tool Cabinets

    I'm a big fan of the US general carts and boxes at HF but over the blak friday holidays I saw a HD husky toolbox that piqued my interest, if only because it as almost as big as the HF 72 inch, came as a double stacker, had the soft close drawers, and had a crazy price. I think it was around 900...

    Any body ever use these wiring kits?

    I have one that came from from ebay. Your link didn't work unfortunately. The one I got is a bare bones but it does have the marking on the wires and switch ends, but not the plugs that go into lights, the proper fuse panel that has bulkhead connectors and stuff like that. It is not a problem...

    Vibration at 70mph+

    If you have had the tires and wheels and u-joints checked already try flipping the driveshaft 180 degrees to the yoke on the rear axle and see if it changes anything. One other thing to do is check the front rotors and see if they have any crud up in the vent holes on the rotor, and likewise...

    Craftsman tool chest question

    You can buy some sliding rails on amazon and even get the soft close function. All you need to do is figure out the length of your old ones and go look here. Weight handling is 50 lbs per rail from what I can tell. https://www.amazon.com/LIBERTY-941805-Soft-Close-Bearing-18-Inch/dp/B00PHL3R1Q

    Auxiliary trans

    Plenty of 700R4's went behind big blocks and lasted ages. Just add a trans cooler and make sure its not rebuilt by a hack and it should be fine. Otherwise you can go with a 4l80e and get a trans controller. The GM 0411 PCM can be used as a stand-alone controller as well as the ones that are...

    Old air compressor question

    Yep its a pressure relieve safety valve. You should be able to file the boss down flat and tap it with a 1/4 NPT thread cutter. Just make sure that it is about 20 to 25 PSI higher than the max cut-out pressure. In the meantime you could just plug it with a pipe plug to figure out the pressure...

    Another vortec thread

    Don't confuse the LS vortec with a 5.7 Vortec firstly. If you have a 5.7 Vortec the exhaust is the same as your old engine for the most part so it should just bolt right up. Like others have said whatever your bolt pattern was on the old block should carry over to the new motor but the only...

    241c transfer case

    Just checking why you think you need it? Is there something wrong with the current unit you have? You can get a NP208 and convert it to 32 spline shaft and adapt a Dakota Digital VSS adapter and have a freshly rebuilt transfer case for about 250 to 300 bucks if you already have one...

    What is everyone's go to for converting rusty frames nice looking frames

    The only proper fix is elbow grease and grinding cutting and patching, or some kind of blasting equipment and then cutting and patching.. Anything else is just a rusty spot turning into a hole with paint on it while it waits to be fixed.

    77 K10 LS Swap

    Sounds like they don't have the flanges centered. Probably misaligned while welding if I had to guess. Some guys never do learn how to counter heat distortion properly.

    Cam decision

    I'm going to recommend that you decide what company you want to buy a cam from, and then call them and ask them for their support. It's free and far more accurate than the internet pro-literate can offer. They know their products and have probably done far more testing with various...

    Front axle tube slipping out?

    You could measure to see how much wider the front axle is from the mounting surface compared to the rear axle mounting surface. It should come out to about 3 inches wider than the rear if I remember correctly.

    Ashtray to USB

    Why not just get a lighter adapter that has 2 USB ports on it? https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Dual-Port-Charger-Android-Devices/dp/B06Y58WLX9/ref=sr_1_3_acs_sk_pb_2_sl_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1543720865&sr=8-3-acs&keywords=double+usb+lighter+charger

    77 K10 LS Swap

    i used a three wire sensor for F bodies and it has feedback for the stock gauge and the pcm. Goes in the stock location. ACDelco 12551708. Cost about 21 bucks on Amazon. The pigtail is part # HP4440 and it will also come up as a TPS and MAP sensor but its for the coolant temp as well.

    vortec heads on 350

    There are some ebay vortec Aluminum heads I have been reading that are on ebay, not sure of the brand or seller, but from all accounts they are affordable and decent but not sure on exact numbers. I heard it discussed on this video but can not recall the details and don't have the time to go...

    77 K10 LS Swap

    they can be found between the Help brand and Dorman has them as well. I think they also come with the new bolt in case your's has a groove worn into it. I believe that the replacements are made of delrin, which is a really durable material.

    77 K10 LS Swap

    FWIW you can go down to a local autozone or other name brand store and they are in the help section, usually right next to the door pin repair kit. Usually if you need one then you need the other. I think we all know there is a replacement part, just pex is cheap(er) and probably will have the...
