    Parking Brake Cable Broke

    I have a 1984 K20 and the top of the cable where the round head is broke off where it goes into the assembly. I see how to fish it out and back through the floorboard. There is a connector piece that I am assuming that I remove it from and purchase and new correct cable? Is this how it...

    Behind Seat Storage

    Good Thread. I definitely like the organizer from DeeZee. They used to make a soft case that would screw to the wall it had several compartments in the front of it and you could also slide a gun thru it. Does anyone know where to get one of these?

    Behind Seat Storage

    1984 Chevrolet K20 with a bench seat appears to have quite a bit of room behind the seat. Does anyone make "DuHa" or etc something that will fit nicely behind there? To hold a gun or other stuff?

    Headlight Upgrade

    I have an 1984 K20 that we have been rebuilding. My son has been driving it and has asked if we can upgrade the headlights. It currently has Sealed beams 2B1-Halogen lights in it. Are there any upgrades to help make it brighter while driving at night?

    Sway Bar

    I purchased a FSB141 Front Sway Bar from Classic Industries and received it yesterday. Got it installed last night and the truck handles much better. Definitely worth the money for this item.

    Sway Bar

    Another question about my 1984 Chevrolet K20 with 4" lift and 35" tires. Just replaced the steering gear box, everything on the front end, ball joints, brace for the gear box to the frame from off road design and the truck drives much better. Everything else checked out good as the raised...

    Just started on the vent window overhaul

    Basically, I installed new gaskets from LMC. They leak very badly. On the outside the gasket is buckled up between rivets. I have since put silicone from the window rail to the gasket. Not- on the window itself. It has stopped all of the leaking but it looks bad from outside. If I redo...

    Just started on the vent window overhaul

    Does anyone know of place that these windows can be sent and rebuilt? I can not seem to get the seals in correctly.

    Vent Window Help!

    That is what I am reading- the seals from LMC are not as good as other companies. The vent window themselves are in good condition so I may just try to replace the seals once again with some better quality ones. They are definitely a pain in the $$$ to replace them.

    Vent Window Help!

    Hello, I have replaced the seals in my vent windows with seals that were bought from LMC Truck. Installed them and have been driving around for the last 3 months with air leaking in. I have tried tape between the glass and seal and it did not work. I finally discovered that it is...

    Mud Tires

    i agree 100% with you, however my 16 year old son will be driving the truck sometimes and I want the truck to be as safe and stable as possible. For the most part, it will be driven down county road but there will be an occasionaly 2 lane undivided highway running 70 mph.

    I am in the final steps of rebuilding my 1984 K20. It currently has 35x12.50x17 Toyo AT tires and they are nearly worn out. I would like to put the most aggressive tire on it in a radial. I like to looks of the super swamper tires however they are bias tires. I never had bias tires but I...

    Help! NV4500 Clutch Z Bar Linkage

    I have a 1984 K20 that has had a NV4500 transmission put in it. I recently had a rebuilt 350 engine installed into the truck. The engine has a 1 piece rear main seal. It also had a new clutch installed at the same time. The problem I am having is that the very little travel on the pressure...

    Lift Help

    It is the drivers side front and slightly back in the driver's side rear. We have since taken the springs off and found that the bushings in rear of the springs are worn out. I am not sure if this is the problem but we have ordered some to replace. They will be in tomorrow.

    Lift Help

    I took the project truck to the mechanic today (which is my friend) to take a look at the lean in the truck. It has about 1-1/2" from side to side. He has looked the truck over and said that I probably need to get a new set of springs. The truck currently has blocks under the back spring...

    Identification Help

    I think the rear is a corporate 9.5 14 bolt. I am still undecided on the front one. Maybe a GM 8.5 10 Bolt?? I am able to upload pics from my computer but not my Iphone. Anyway, here a are a couple of pics.

    Identification Help

    Also- we jacked up the rear end- spin the one tire- and the other tire started spinning in the other direction. Then it stopped. I kept spinning the tire but the other one never spun again. Anyway- 1 complete revolution of the tire was around 2-1/4 turns on the driveshaft.
