    What have you done to your square lately??

    Today was heater core day. I remember the non ac trucks being much easier. This one with air was a little more time consuming. Bottom bolt held on for dear life :X

    Found issue with aux gas tank

    I haven't been able to use the aux gas tank in my 87 Silverado sine I purchased it. Went through the whole electrical side of it and could not find an issue there which led to the determination that it was the pump itself. After dropping the tank the issue became obvious, this thing is the...

    Newb question on t case retrofit

    I have a 87 V10 with a 700r4 and a 208 t case. I am getting ready to swap the 5.7 TBI out for a 6.0 and am keeping the 700r4 in it until spring. In the spring I will be swapping the 700r4 out for a 6l80e. My issue is it does not appear that anyone makes an adapter for the 6l80e to 208 t case...

    Tilt column vendor

    Where are you located? I just replaced the column i my 87 and would be willing to give you my old one to send in for rebuild. It had an issue with the high beam switch and the tilt was a little loose for my liking. I am in Missouri but would be willing to send it to them for rebuild if you...

    6.0 Header Bolts

    Makes sense but I have always preferred manifolds over headers as re-torqueing header bolts was a staple of my youth. Anyone had any success with the locking bolts and headers? Appreciate the input on the bolts Bucket, thank you for the response

    6.0 Header Bolts

    Getting ready to do the 6.0 swap in the 87 in the next couple of weeks and have read quite a bit about broken manifold bolts and the like. Since I am eliminating the manifolds in favor of headers I was curious which header bolts you guys/gals would recommend for this engine to both eliminate...

    Fair price for 1987 TBI engine?

    I have a rebuilt 350 TBI in my 87 V10 that I am going to pull and replace with a 2001 6.0. I have the paperwork for the rebuild, the tbi was rebuilt as well and new injectors installed. The engine has ~4k miles on it at this point and is a stock rebuild. Brand new ac delco sensors, Harris...

    Some Input on Roll Bars (show bars), brush guards and bug deflectors

    I can fabricate and weld, I make gun barrels for a living, time is my enemy though as I just do not have time to keep up with business and my cars/trucks. I may put an ad here in the classifieds and try that, if that doesn't work then I may just have to break down and build them. Thank you...

    Some Input on Roll Bars (show bars), brush guards and bug deflectors

    I have done a bit of searching (maybe in the wrong place) and have really not found anything that strikes my fancy. I am looking for a quality roll bar for my 87 fleet side swb truck. I will most likely mount some lights to it and would prefer something that wont have rust streaks the first...

    Steering column plastic cover

    I couldn't find a column local so I went and got a harness and floor switch for a 82 and hooked it up until I can find a proper column to switch out later. Not the way I wanted to do it but it will work for now. I really appreciate all the help with pictures, info and schematics guys it was...

    Steering column plastic cover

    Going to just replace the entire column if I can find a good one. The bar that runs the length is bent up pretty badly and binding as it tries to actuate the new switch. always something

    Steering column plastic cover

    After getting into it the rod is out of placement in both the switch in the lower part of the column and the multi switch at the top. Looks like I am going to have to pull the wheel and replace everything or at least try to figure out how the rod attaches at the top (bottom is straight...

    Steering column plastic cover

    Thank you sir, the combination switch works fine but I cannot get the switch to work between the low and high beams. I assume it is a pressure switch in there that is activated by the stalk when pulled forward but no joy.
