    84+ Intermittent wipers in 1982?

    Lots of info on putting the dash mount intermittent into 1978-1983. Just get switch and module and plug it in. Also plenty of info on adding that switch and module to 1977 and earlier. Adding 1984+ column switch and module to 1983 and earlier? I haven't yet found a "connect this to that and it...

    Was there ever a turn signal / dimmer / wiper lever with intermittent but *without cruise*?

    84+ Intermittent wipers in 1982?

    I have a tilt column and intermittent wiper module from a 1984 or newer truck and want to connect the output of the new module to the wires that originally connected to the non-intermittent dash mounted switch. Wiper motor is original 1982. Will be much nicer on the stick than on the dash.

    1991 C/K ALDL wire colors & positions?

    When I got the wires etc from the 1991 Chevy standard cab donor truck I didn't get the ALDL connector. Later I cut one off some GM at a junkyard but where the pins are in it doesn't match up with anything I'm finding online. All the DIY build your own ALDL to PC data cable schematics say...

    1987 to 1982 column swap

    I just spent a fruitless time since my last post trying to find the pinout of the wiper/cruise/dimmer long connector. Found a large amount of info for the horn/lights connector. I found some forum posts of diagrams for the horn/lights, with replies by people asking for the info on the other...

    1987 to 1982 column swap

    I didn't pull the column. The yard I got it from said it was in an 87. The turn signal, horn and some other stuff goes to one long, single row connector on the right side of the column. That all matched. The dimmer, wipers and cruise control go to a second long, single row connector, on the...

    1987 to 1982 column swap

    I put a 1987 tilt column in my 1982. I want to connect the wiper and dimmer stalk in place of the dash and foot switches. I'd also like to add intermittent wipers and cruise control. What all do I need to get off another truck and what years (other than 1978 of course) would have the right...

    Need a pair of dash speaker brackets?

    I was out at CBASS today and found a pair for 3.5" speakers in vehicle number E007 so I set them on the passenger side floor in front of the seat. They'll need bead blasted and painted but the plastic dipped tab is good. If you need those, contact cbass.net Post here if you get them.

    Cowl vent retainers or clips?

    Looks like I may have to make something. Parts like these should be a priority for companies making reproduction parts for these trucks. Somewhere I saw repro cowl grilles, so why not the fasteners to go with them?

    Body mount nust broken loose. How to fix?

    The front one got held from above with a big screwdriver while I used an impact wrench from below. The rear one required a bit of heat from an acetylene torch. I'll likely cut some patches to pop rivet and seal over the holes. Quite large chunks of the floor on both sides have already been cut...

    Cowl vent retainers or clips?

    Found on GM Parts Wiki Retainer, cowl to vent grl (outer) 15598770 and 15598769 is the inner. Two outers and three inners are what it uses. Edit: Or perhaps not. Earliest year I find for those numbers in 1985, and I see other references to just 81-82. Haven't seen if those numbers supersede...

    Body mount nust broken loose. How to fix?

    And they are out. WTH didn't GM simply use rectangles of metal longer than the support channels are wide? Then all the retainer would be doing is holding the nuts in place instead of having to hold them against torque.

    Body mount nust broken loose. How to fix?

    Yup, those. And the collapsed cab mounts that have the floor pans almost touching the top of the frame.

    Body mount nust broken loose. How to fix?

    The nice, heavy bench seat will have to come out to get at the rear nut. The reason I was removing these is the only way to get the upper transmission crossmember angle bracket bolts out of their holes in the top of the frame is to lift the cab. I'm also replacing the six cab mounts because...

    Body mount nust broken loose. How to fix?

    What's the procedure for fixing a couple of cab mounting nuts that are broke loose from the cab? Both on the right side. The left ones and the two on the radiator support came out with an impact gun after getting a full turn with a really long breaker bar. This $1K truck gets more $$$...

    Firewall grommet for ECM wires?

    I removed the bulky OEM rectangular bulkhead fitting from the wiring harness because I was stripping out air conditioning wires and connecting some through to the ECM which formerly routed through the 1991 instrument panel and an interior harness. Now I need a grommet that can fit over or...

    Cowl vent retainers or clips?

    I need the retainers or clips that hold the rear edge of the cowl vent cover. As usual, web searches are being useless. Somehow Google interprets a search for 1981 chevy pickup cowl retainers as 1970 chevy truck grille on eBay! I've also found many sources for hood to cowl seals, which is...

    1982, switch on the gas pedal?

    OK, so a combo. Flamethrower, squat suspension, open a flap for more air intake and shoot the NOS. All on a C3500 flatbed dually.

    Where to get body mounts? Not polyurethane.

    I ordered P6411017 from Parts Train. Polyurethane ones :P but the best price I could find for just the bushings, just for the cab.

    Where to get body mounts? Not polyurethane.

    Is there a source for the body mounts that are NOT polyurethane? Just the mounts for the cab and radiator support. I don't need all the bolts, washers etc. I found a complete cab and bed kit at LMC but my flatbed doesn't need the bed mounts. It would help a lot if the forum search index...

    1982, switch on the gas pedal?

    So out it goes, or at least not connected, in case I want to figure out something else triggered by the gas pedal position.

    1982, switch on the gas pedal?

    What's the switch or linear rheostat/potentiometer on the gas pedal for? There's an orange wire from it that went to a plug on the TH400 transmission that was in the truck. Don't need that with the 700R4, but is anything else connected to that?

    1991 C/K wiring diagrams?

    I've only been able to find the R/V diagrams for 1991. The closest I've found for the C/K are 1988 but a bit of comparing to the harness I have shows there's plenty of differences at the bulkhead connector. For example, the VSS wires are in different locations in 91 than they were in 88...
