    Drove the 84 to work today. Got the best looking truck in the parking lot. Even chicken head can't help but look at it while he's walking at break. Lol

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Adjusted the 84's tv cable so it kicks down when I punch it. Seems to shift better too when I drove it around town. Stopped by advanced auto and got another Bosch 2 5/8" tach. This ones for the 84's steering column.

    Put some wire loom on the power wire for stereo and fog lights to prevent chafing. And it looks better. Lol

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got the 1156 led bulbs in for the reverse lights today. Had 1157 but they won't fit because the little tabs are offset instead of straight across. I'll show pics latter to compare to the old ones. A little smaller but the 1157 was bought years ago so design and technology has improved probably idk.

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Got the nut driver set in today. It's magnetic was the main reason I got it so nuts and bolts don't fall down somewhere and lose them. Lol

    Th350 not spinning the speedo cable

    My speedometer worked but was reading about 10 mph fast or so. Swapped transmission now it doesn't work. So where would I start to look into this problem? Do I have to remove the tail end and have a look? What in the transmission drives the cable?Thanks for any help.

    I like the bosch on on my 82 I mounted on the steering column. I think it's about 3 inches. It's held up for about 6 years now. Got it at advanced auto in town.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Added wire to the fog lights that I'm gonna use for reverse lights. Heat shrink solder connectors and a extra piece of heat shrink over the connectors. Then mounted. Tomorrow I'll hook them up to reverse wires. Anyone know the wire colors for the reverse lights off hand?

    Video has less glare from the lights. It's just the running lights and halos on. No headlights.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got the grill back in and the Chevrolet led mounted and hooked up. Looks pretty good if I do say so myself. Hooked it to the running lights. I'll take some more when it gets dark.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Finally got 99% of the paint stripped off the grill. Whata pita! So taped it off and sprayed two coats. Tomorrow I'll flip it over and give it a couple of more.

    What would you pay for this truck?

    I'm willing to bet that 4,500 is just the down-payment. They do that here in Houston all the time. You think hell yeah then find out that's the deal. They want way more than that 4,500 for the truck.

    Blinkers not working

    Maybe try a new flasher in the fuse box? If all the grounds look good.

    Blinkers not working

    Yes I tried led bulbs and they wouldn't blink when lights were on. Lights off blinked lights on no blink. I heard you need another type flasher when using led lights.

    Also cleaned all the atf that leaked out of the transmission into the bed and aired up the spare. It had almost zero air in it. Lol

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Got the horns working. I removed them to paint and to see why they weren't working. When I hit the button on the steering wheel I could hear a clicking sound but no horn. So I tried them individually by hooking up a wire to the horn then touching it on the positive side of the battery. One...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I gotta say that stripping the paint off the grill has become a big pita! I've done 5 coats and still have a little more to get off. If I knew it would be this way I would've just painted over the old paint. But if you want it looking right it's better to remove it rather than pai ting over the...
