    Front end lowered problem

    Evening all. I just finished the front end part of my 5/7 drop on my 84 c10. Aside from having to shave off some material from the western chassis spindles and waiting a call back as to why their shocks don’t line up with their tubular control arms all went well until I had to move it. The left...

    Wheels

    Got a lead on some 16x10 and some 15x10 rims. Same price. I am about to do a 5/7 drop (using spindles from western chassis). Would it be better to go with the 16s or 15s or does it not matter? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Front end

    So I bought the western chassis 5/7 for my 84 c10 long bed, but before (or while) I dive into that I figured I’d replace the ball joints, tie rod ends, a-arms or just the bushings. I’ll probably go with moof parts from rock auto, but does any one have any insight into replacing the control arms...

    She's dying

    Driving my truck the past few days she's wanting to die on me. I turned down the radio to hear it. Sounds like it's struggling for fuel. Should I just replace carb and pump or somewhere else to start? Maybe tuning carb (which I'm not experienced in at all)? It's a 1969 307 with a q-jet and stock...

    Washer sprayer issue

    I have an 83 c10. My wipers work, but sprayer doesn't. I've had the truck for almost a year and the sprayer hasn't worked since I've had it. Finally feel like fixing it. Any ideas where to start? I figure if the wipers work, the whole motor module "should" be good. There isn't a pump in the...

    Pull n pay

    It'll just be me and the wife, but I'll try my damndest if I can. I think this place won't let you use a cart for deals like this though. I saw a guy on their site from last year carrying an engine in his arms. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Pull n pay

    Local junk yard is having a $60 all you can carry deal this Sunday. Anything I should be looking to grab? I remember reading something about camaro dual fans and possibly the radiator? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Drop questions

    Looking to drop my daily either 3/5 or 4/6. I'm good with either a flip kit or piecing one together. I've read that DJM is no good and mcgaughys is no bueno with my stock 15s. Eventually I'd like to grab some 17s, but until then I'm looking to drop it. While I'm under there I was wondering if...

    Affordable engine replacement?

    You and this 307 crank in the 350. Lmao I'll have to do some research on it, but if it's the best bang for my buck I more than likely will. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Affordable engine replacement?

    Alright plan is to get my setup correct right now. I do plan to change my set up significantly as finances allow. My 307 is blowing oil out of the exhaust as well as all the plugs being wet. I figure its only a matter of time until she goes. I found a straight 350 block for $100 and figured I'd...

    Affordable engine replacement?

    These are what you're talking about? Price range is crazy. They go from $100-almost $300. What do you recommend? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    83 c10 rear disk conversion

    Rear brakes stick after sitting for a while. I have to step on the gas pretty good to get the truck rolling. Right now it's not an issue, but when the snow hits I'll be sliding everywhere before I even start to take off. Since i need to work on the rear brakes I decided why not go with rear disk...

    Affordable engine replacement?

    I have this sitting on the shelf and my wife just gave me the go ahead for $200-$300 budget. What should I get first? I was informed this might be a little too much of an intake for what I'm trying to accomplish. What one should I get and what should I pair it with to stay on budget? Should I...

    Affordable engine replacement?

    Well now that's two votes for keeping my 307 for now. I guess that's what I'm doing until I can save up for something really nice! Thanks fellas! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Affordable engine replacement?

    Thanks man. I don't have dual exhaust or headers right now. I'll have to look at the ignition timing. Right now it has the old style distributor. It currently has stock rims and tires. If I change the rim size (eventually I will) I plan to keep the overall size of rim and tire combo the...
