    Hesitation going up hill.

    Yeah I'll see what he has when I go by. His listing states that he has various carbs from the 50's to the 80's. He said he would match up what I had and make sure I was taken care of. An electric choke would definitely be a big plus to have.

    Hesitation going up hill.

    I actually just watched a power block video where they rebuilt a quadrajet and did the same thing. I'm found a local retired guy that is clearing out his carburetor shop. Going to pick up a quadrajet from him. He quoted me $70-75 for the new one. Sent from my RM-860_nam_usa_100 using Tapatalk

    Hesitation going up hill.

    Well after talking with one of my co workers who is more knowledgeable about older V8's. He seems to think that my issue is my carb needs to be rebuilt. I know mine was rebuilt but it's been more than 10 years and with the truck sitting for that long. I'm fairly convinced he's correct. I have a...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    After 5 hours of removing the old stereo, equalizer, and door speakers. I finally got my new stereo and speakers installed. Rear speakers need to have new wiring ran so that is on hold for another day. Also swapped out my tail gate with a working one I got with the truck. Now my truck is three...

    Satellite receiver placement?

    I may just wait and try and figure out a better solution for mounting the receiver. I have to pull the headliner out anyways to fix the sagging and remove some of the old equipment the PO installed in the truck. Anyone want a vintage escort radar detector or a lamp? lol

    Satellite receiver placement?

    Yeah I'm gonna have to look into a place for it. I don't have marker lights or a rear cargo light. Thinking I'm going to drill a hole, mount it, and silicon the hole to weather proof it. Sent from my RM-860_nam_usa_100 using Tapatalk

    Satellite receiver placement?

    For those of you that have installed it. Where did you mount your receiver? The instructions say to mount on the front of the cab for a truck. Just curious as I was thinking of mounting it on the rear of the cab. I was also wondering if I should drill a hole and run it into the cab or run it...

    Weird issues with charging system.

    My speakers were swapped at some point with a alpine set in the doors and some kind of house speaker behind the seats. Finally ordered the replacements on Thursday. Figured out the audio buzz is from a failing equalizer. Looks like I'm without a stereo till I get it all swapped in Sent from my...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Finally bit the bullet and ordered the rest of the stuff to update my stereo system. The equalizer is failing and I only have one side. Got 5 1/4" speakers for the door. The rear speakers are still in good working order.

    Squarebody Differentials.

    That seems correct. The PO never said anything about the diffs being swapped.

    Squarebody Differentials.

    Would the original build sheet tell me anything about what kind of diff's I have? My truck is 77' K-20 Camper special so I've been wondering what it came with. The only thing I can tell is that it has 4.10 gears.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Probably not but felt I may as well replace it. May be little overboard but one less failure to worry about.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Lost my low beams on the way home last night. Got a dimmer switch and head light switch this morning. Swapped out the dimmer and fixed my loss of lighting. May go ahead and replace my bulbs as they have some age on them.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    LOL nope it's the temp gauge. Got my valve cover gaskets installed today. May have to pull the gauge out and check it as it's not reading temperature anymore. Also realized that I need to replace my transmission gasket as it's leaking a little bit.
