    L59 swapping into 86 K5. Crossmember?

    For a 4x4 yes, I would prioritize keeping the bellhousing in the same location as a Gen 1. That way i wouldn't have to make 2 new driveshafts. The universal 1" setbacks do that, but crash the oil pain into the crossmember, which is why ORD and PAC Fab and others offer a crossmember. You can...

    Wiring tools

    I'm about to embark on a scratch wiring job on my C10 in the next 6 weeks here or so. What tools do you guy's find necessary for good, solid wiring? I have a set of auto strippers, but I don't have any fancy crimpers or anything. Also, I need a source for good spade connectors and whatnot...

    L59 swapping into 86 K5. Crossmember?

    Yeah I can see why 1/4" of washers would give someone cause for worry... :emotions34: Anyhow, if the truck is lifted at all, and the transfer case is dropped, that helps as well.

    From 85 on they all had V6 options,until you get into the Trailblazer, that went back to It's.

    I don't think the general public is on board with any further bailouts of these companies. So whatever it takes for them to sink or swim is what it'll take.

    I work for FCA, the FCA REnualt Merger was shot down by the French government 3 weeks ago. There were never talks to merge with GM.

    It's all about money and what sells, and how to maximize profits.

    L59 swapping into 86 K5. Crossmember?

    Depends on what mounts you use. Alot of people just stack some washers and space the engine up to get the clearance they need.

    99% of Blazer's ever produced were S10's, IFS fullsizes, or Trailblazers. You say Blazer to the average person, they'd never conjure up a K5 in their minds eye. I have no problem with it, I just spent a week driving one, it was a nice car, drove it 85 mph with the AC and satellite radio on...

    They are cast in two pieces,cab and bed, so it's probably easy to straighten them out.

    Is it bad to scrap parts versus selling?

    In Michigan frames are way easier to find than cabs lol. All I'm saying is, it's not worth fighting over. If he thinks he has a gold mine, let him pan that stream.

    I paid 25 plus shipping on Ebay for mine and I'm not mad at all. Totally worth it to not have to talk to the fawks at Autozone :banana-mario:

    Fuel tank leak

    Lol, tanks are cheap. If I go to the effort to drop one, I replace it.

    Is it bad to scrap parts versus selling?

    Scrap em all, I already have mine. The thing's were mass produced 5 or 6 days a week from 72 until 87. There's plenty out there. And plenty out there not to be dealing with all those shenanigans. If he's not willing to sell at a price you're willing to pay, move on.
