    Anyone vinyl wrapped their truck?

    A talented wrapper can manage very intricate convolutes. I’m not in that category, but managed to do pretty decent on the tight radius of trim. The center piece is a chrome wrap on copper fab.

    Anyone vinyl wrapped their truck?

    Employed wrap in strategic areas on a tri five. I would think the square bodies would be easier as there are minimal compound curves.

    Mangled Bolt Top Shock Mount?

    FYI just pulled my old Gabriel adjustables from the rear. Just for clean up as long as I was doing brakes. Bushings were toast. Gabriel does not offer replacement bushings, but Summit Racing has a great selection based on dimensions.

    Identify which rear drum brakes

    FYI on FF axles. If you intend to have a shop turn the drums you'll need to press out the wheel studs and the hub so the drum can be mounted in their lathe. Lucked out on my 11” drums. Still had enough to remain in spec. Waiting on hardware & shoes from LMC. If not a good circumference match to...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Pulled the full floating axles today to inspect the brakes. Less than 1/16” left on the riveted shoes. Fairly sure drums are original so a clean up cut might be enough. Both wheel cylinders are leaking & everything is a sticky mess. All that is except for the black widow that was calling the...

    K20 front leaf springs

    I’m on board w/ your fix. Relatively easy & maintains shackle control.

    A little info about wrench sizes

    Those minor discrepancies came to light for truck owners w/ the F150s. Fueled a storm of aftermarket lug nut sales.

    Wheel bearing problems… please help!

    Occasionally you’ll find backing off the castellated nut leaves undesirable looseness. Spindle bearing shims are the answer.

    Ran yesterday but not today… just bought it yesterday!

    Filter looks like gas on top of water.

    Flatbed to truck bed swap

    I ran duely bud wheels for a few years on a K20. Simple painted roof flashing screwed to the fender lips looked great as extended fenders.

    Air in fuel system

    Mechanical pumps pull (suck) the fuel. I have had that issue caused by a hose on the pull side that would suck air at its connection, yet it did not display wet with fuel.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Getting prepped for next plow season. While repairing and painting the body I decided to remove the running boards. They were a safety hazard with snow covered boots. Still needed a step to assist the climb in. Came up w/ this. A piece of perforated plate and some angle. Right now its spring...

    Dreaded ethanol carb issue.

    Been a busy summer here. Finally got a free morning to address poor performance on the K20 350. Had already done a full tune up, but still backfire and miss. Pulled the Ebrock 1406 and opened it up. Secondary circuits pretty plugged up. Soaked everything in carb cleaner, blew out all passages...

    Need advice on what to do with old bed liner and while we are at it sealing up these scratches.

    Hit the bone yard years back. Found a couple drop in liners, cheap. Makes the best fish shack floor ever. Lighter than plywood, indestructible, don’twear out, dont need paint. Thats all I got.

    Either this part is unavailable, or I don’t know where to search.

    Bless me father for I have skinned. I cut out the cancer and just replaced the metal, no bolt bracing. LMC has the complete inner well reasonably priced.

    Alternator and power steering belts keep coming off

    Pulley diameter is not the only factor that can cause rotational mismatch. Belts must be the same contact pitch and width. That last shot under the crank, front belt looks a little canted. Ive set up accessories from scratch and fasten archery arrows to the face of the pulleys. Stand back a ways...
