    What is this????

    Looks like the 12 bolt on the 69 I just cleaned up. Guess is it probably was from the coil sprung rear. Someone probably welded some leaf perches on cuz that’s what they had laying around.

    Harbor Freight Tool/Product Review

    I meant to post this a while back HF has some decent tools and some that are throw away. This usually happens within the first day of use with these two tools. I’m not sure at what point during the project it happens... I’ll go to pick it up to realize it’s got a little more flex than usual. I...

    Remove Lift and Figure out what I have....

    Wow. Lift blocks in the front. I have heard of people doing this but never seen it. That’s a huge NoNo. Good thing you’re already smart enough to take it off.

    12valve/nv4500 into 79’ K30

    Those prices look to be about the markup I see in my area. Literally the reason I do my own work and have done so since my first brake quote in high school. The quote for my 98 c1500 to get new brakes, rotors and drums came out to 900 bucks. I said yeah right .... They tend to swear they use...

    I ordered some sheet metal from brothers because they’re close to me. I was pretty satisfied with their rockers and floor panels.

    Brake booster

    I guess my question is what am I measuring from? Pedal pad or back of arm, strait down or perpendicular to the pedal?

    Brake booster

    My issue i think stems from I had a brake pedal booster from a 78 and my truck is a 73. when I was building it I looked at both assemblies and couldn’t remember what came from which. so I mounted one set I had together. I guessed it was the 73s. since. Ordered a 73 booster and my pedal is all...

    Homemade and modified tool thread

    I’m a cheap bastard and wanted a stand up ashtray for the cigars we smoke. Had a couple drums laying around and figured fuck it. I’ll make one. The poor Oliva Serie V that got naked was due to a female smoking it with very long nails. She managed to peel the wrapper clean off LOL. Other one...

    4 Link coil over talk!

    Awesome. I’ll order those. Been looking at them but worried about issues. I’m not ready to switch to larger rims. I love my 15s. On the coilovers for the front, do they use the upper spring pocket and bracket to retain the spring on the coilover? Or does it still use a retainer to capture the...

    Those the d52 replacement ones? They mention that some people had to grind them down to clear the 15” wheels? Any fitment issues?

    4 Link coil over talk!

    My set up snapped a lower coilover bolt running single shear. I told myself... why would they sell kits if it wasn’t safe? I Can do it too. Going down the freeway at 80 MPH snap! Pulled over, inspected and limped it home. Immediately ordered the stuff to make it double shear and will never do...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Yeah the icon boxes I see have the adjustable knobs to make them stay closed. The soft close thing... my Matco 5s doesn’t even have that. So.... it’s still comparable.
