    Fuel Tank Selector Switch

    Bucket, you are probably right. All weekend the problem came and went. I'll start with the easy fuel filter swap and see how that goes. Not looking forward to dropping the tank

    New seat bottom foam vs re-building existing?

    The only reason I switched out the bench was because I wanted new foam back and bottom as well as replace the cover. No one within miles would do it, and couldn't find new back foam online. Money from the bench sale paid for the new buckets.

    Fuel Tank Selector Switch

    New problem all of a sudden. How many things wrong could make the engine not idle right and make the transmission wind out to higher RPM shift point, all happens when I switch fuel tanks. When I switch back to the other tank everything acts right again. Could a bad ground cause this? Bad...

    Kilmat/new seat project

    Had almost a box leftover from my boat project. Had just enough for the floor and some in the doors. Pretty significant difference in the sound. While I had the seats out, I changed the Tahoe seats that were way too big for Range Rover seats. Fit much better and more comfortable. No more hard...

    Blown rear axle seal

    While I'm at it looks like rear disc brake conversion is on the agenda. Anyone have good experience with Little Shop?

    Blown rear axle seal

    Thanks Drifter. Lots of miles (200+K) and hard work (citrus/beef industry) she got. That was then, not now. Just recently started driving highways again 100 miles at 75MPH. I guess I'll find out Tuesday when I start digging into it.

    Blown rear axle seal

    Blew a seal on rear hub. Thought she could handle highway speeds after 33 years. Turns out not so good. Now I need to replace a seal and without even looking I can already see new bearings and seals for both sides. New brake shoes for the leaky side. If the axle is warped or pitted, new axles...

    New gauges installed.

    When you put $10k into body work and paint, $300 is nothing.

    New gauges installed.

    Got for Christmas last year. Had a problem and they sent me a whole new kit. This one works great, not diesel. They were out for a long time, had a small supply for about a month and now it appears LMC is out again indef.

    Another awesome accessory (BLUETOOTH)

    Another great item for the 33 year old truck. This device plugs into the cigarette lighter spot and when you dial into a blank FM channel on your radio, it will bluetooth your smart phone through the speakers. Thats both Sirius XM music and hands free phone use for about $16. Plus it charges...

    Great back up light bulb replacement

    Not sure what everyone is using, but I just got these to replace the weak backup bulbs in my V10. I can now see when backing even with tinted windows. Seem to be very high quality. Very happy with them...

    If you don't have the clock in your cluster, you still have a blank space.

    Gauge Cluster Swap

    LMC Tach Conversion Kit. When available they are listed for $299.95. Since the guy that was making them for LMC passed away, who knows when they would be available again.

    Rubber or poly bushings

    Last month installed ORD Kevlar bushings for all leafs and sway bar. The ride is smooth and for the same price as other kits you get greasable bolts.

    I'm taking the plunge....2005 seats in a 76

    At first it felt odd, but now I love it. It rides like a cadillac.

    Kevlar Suspension Bushings vs Polyurethane

    Already see one top bolt hits the exhaust the other side hits linkage. If I can't wiggle the stock bolts out, I'll cut them and just slide the new ones with nuts facing in.

    Kevlar Suspension Bushings vs Polyurethane

    Any of you folks have an opinion on the Kevlar greasable suspension bushings offered by Off Road Design? Looking at replacing all three bushings on all four corners, including the sway bar. ORD kevlar kits plus shipping should be about $232. The polyurethane kits available everywhere is about...

    Leaf Spring

    I'm looking to replace the bushings on the leaf springs front and back with urethane. Looking in the Classic catalog, it shows 2 different OD bushings for 87 V10, that are about an inch off my 2 1/2" wide leafs. Any advice on which sets would work?

    Can't believe this gas mileage

    Not factory. LMC tach conversion. Adds tach in place of giant gas gauge and places the small gas gauge in the original unused spot.
