    Wiring Harness journal

    LOL the grounding struggle is real. The 78 I had was a problem child when I got it, after applying some grounding straps it really fixed a LOT of issues.

    Wiring Harness journal

    We did my daughters truck with a American Autowire kit after I kept finding terrible wiring decisions while troubleshooting stuff. At the end of the day it was worth the price of admission as everything is neat, labeled, and no unnecessary joints. If you really want to get sporty crimp then...

    Anyone have a coastal blue or teal with Maroon or Tan interior?

    I am looking at painting my project coastal blue single stage from Summit. I have an almost complete maroon interior for my blazer project that went bust (all new parts) but I don't think maroon will go well with the color. I am thinking Tan is the ticket on this color combo. Looking to do...

    Need Recommendations for 6 lug 16 or 17x8" Steel Wheel

    I purchased a set of these for my daughter for her birthday for her truck. They fit and work but while she likes them I think the rears are a little tucked. Fuel 17" Also, I know you are asking about steel but these cover the size you are asking about.

    3 inch rake after tuff country 4 inch lift.

    Did you leave the bolts somewhat loose until you put it on the ground? My guess is something is up with the rearmost hangers because I have ran accross a few that have been in place so long that they wouldn't budge even if you pulled the bolts. I replace them every time I mess with a lift.

    Cowl Hood

    Its currently in storage while I work up from the ground on my K10. I sold that Blazer tub to someone who took a real beating on something that someone hid all the rust on and passed off as a good unit.

    2WD to 4WD frame swap. Is it really that simple??? Help me out!

    I’ve been doing a c10-k10 conversion. I found a Blazer frame for the axles and some parts and bought the rest from eBay/LMC/ORD. A frame swap may have been easier but I was given the base C10 so figured I would roll with it. You can do the front end without even taking the body off the frame...

    What is this relay looking module box on my valve cover??

    I have a motor from a 84 sitting in my shop floor with that same thing on the valve cover. Unfortunately none of the wiring is still in place so no idea what was hooked to it.

    Can someone measure the rear cab mount on a 73-80 K10?

    I am converting a C10 frame to K10 and looking at pics of my old frame that I sold long before I got this frame to convert it looks like the rear cab mount is below the frame rail a smidge where the C10 mount is even with it. It looks like about 1.5-2" difference. I may have to custom cut a...

    1977 K10 Frame with 86 Cab Help

    You would use the bushing set for the 73-80 frames. They have simple round holes on the frame mounts. On the 81-87 they are round holes with flat sides.
