    Spare Tire Mount

    I have a 1984 Chevrolet K20 with 35" tires and it does not have a spare for it. What are some places and ideas to have a spare tire mount. I am pretty sure that a 35" tire will not fit under the bed. Anyone have some ideas?

    6 x 9 Behind Seat

    I am looking at adding some 6 x 9 Speakers in the cab corners and was wondering the best way to mount them. I saw where a guy built some brackets for $65.00 but I can not seem to get a hold of him as when he advertised to sell them was back in 2008. Anyway, are there any other good ideas out...

    Steering Gear Box Adjustment

    I drove it a while this evening. It helped but probably needs a new box. I called NAPA and they can get one for $158.00 and it USA Cardone brand. Will this be a good replacement? Secondly, how hard is it to install?

    Manual Window Hard to Roll Up

    My passenger side Manual Window Is Hard to Roll Up. I have had the panel on and off the door around 15 times adjusting and trying to make it work correctly. 1st of the all, when the window would go up about 3" above the trim seal, then the leading edge would work its way out and the window...

    Door Alignment Help

    That is what I am wondering- If they are bent. I do not see how 1/2" play is going to line up the door as shown in the 2nd picture and the gap there.

    Door Alignment Help

    There is about 1/2" movement on the outer edge of the door. Where can these bushings be purchased? I saw in the LMC catalog where you have to purchase the entire hinge. Does the door need to have some shims under it?

    Windshield Wiper Help

    It does not have a module under the steering wheel. But after further investigation, it does not have a intermittent wiper switch in the steering column. It has the correct blinker/wiper handle for intermittent but that is the reason for the "hard clicks" and limited movement back and forth...

    Windshield Wiper Help

    Thanks for the information. That is great. One question- if the truck is not wired for the pulse module, do I need a complete wiring harness for it or can I put the module inline from the wiper switch to the wipers?

    Has anyone used gauge overlays?

    Yes- Just put them on a few weeks ago. They are hard to weave around the needle but do look good. I also painted the needles orange and added white LED lights for the background. I think it looks good. I will try to get some pics in the next few days. I am away from the truck for a few...

    4" Lift with 35" Tires

    Thats a good idea. I was only thinking along the lines of the 37" tire because there is not many choices for a 36" tire anymore. The 35" tires appear to come in around 34-34.5.

    While I have the dash and everything out, I would like to install a new stereo. The truck has not had one in quite a while. I have replaced the dash speakers with the ones from LMC. My question is: Is there a certain type, brand, or size radio that it needs to be to fit the factory bezel...
