    What have you done to your square lately??

    Ahhh yes, I get that, hence the reason I have stuff everywhere too! Expensive, you aren't kidding, so for me it's one slow project at a time if I'm lucky.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yeah--but if you might use it someday, you'd probably want to keep it ;) The second you sell it, the perfect truck for it would fall into your lap that would need it!

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Another cool clip of it showing the duals...my buddy Simon got this clip of me (his diesel powered 51 Shoebox Ford is sitting outside in the video) as I was leaving the Podcast.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Part of the reason I bought it! Never have seen one like it before. It has a J.C. Whitney "dually kit" on it. This truck was originally a single rear tire. With this kit you put on your inner rim with long hex shaped standoff (female threads on one end, male on the other), then put on the big...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Yes it is, the guy I bought it from installed them, and did an awesome job, such nice cuts in the racerback it looks factory. I left them as is for a different look, and it looks good.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    FINALLY found a racerback for this baby like it had before I bought it!! (Guy I bought it from asked if his nephew could keep the visor, and racerback--I said "yup, take them, I don't want them". However I then found the guy that build this dually in '82/'83 and I regretted letting those items...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Haven't done much lately with mine except add more fuel (lots and lots of 91, been driving it all over) to feed that Big Block Olds... The Podcast I was invited on just put up another teaser clip, now you guy will know what I look like....not sure if that's a good thing or not :p

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I've been a way from here for a while! Been having too much fun I guess! Got to have another fun weekend with the truck this past weekend! I was asked last week if I'd like to be on a newer Podcast called "Peace And Grease" with my dually, so I said heck yeah! This took place this past Saturday...

    Looking for a Racerback for my 76 GMC

    Anyone have a racerback similar to this one?? I'd like to get one for my dually like it once had.

    LMC truck has the wrong window regulator rollers....

    You're welcome, glad it was useful information! It just sucks when you go to order an item, the website/book shows the right item you need---but then when it arrives it is wrong!! Aggravating, but then I saw there was no other option, so my only option was to modify it. A little more work, but...

    Truck cover

    This is the same thing I am looking into also now. My 4-car garage has NO room for my 51 Ford Truck project I wanted to do over the winter months. So, as shameful as it sounds I think I may park my dually outside on some wood planks, and throw a cover over it. What is a GOOD heavy duty cover...

    What year tailgate is this??

    Well that's good to know! Man, if I keep this up I'll have a song similar to Johnny Cash, except about a squarebody :Big Laugh:

    What year tailgate is this??

    Hey gents, here is the underside of the hood--what's your thoughts?

    What year tailgate is this??

    @bucket @TotalyHucked @HotWheelsBurban My fricken brain hurts after gaining all that knowledge from reading your posts!! Holy crap---did GM keep anything the same besides their exterior sheetmetal design! I'll get some underhood pictures for you and post them up, hopefully soon, because I am...

    What year tailgate is this??

    Well....dam. The person I got the blue one from used the hardware, hence why it's not on there. I like the patina on the blue one, it matches the rest of my truck so maybe I'll look for that hardware. Here is the hood I got, very nice one too. I'm unsure of year, looks like an early one...

    What year tailgate is this??

    When you say pegs are you talking those finger gizmos at the top of the green tailgate that align it to the top rear of the fender? Or the peg that holds the pivoting bracket? I honestly don't know what either are technically called, so I am making up my own words here :p That green gate came...

    What year tailgate is this??

    Gents, I picked up a tailgate and hood, near the same blue as my dually, tonight I'd planned on putting on the gate, however I soon noticed my parts from my green tailgate won't work on the blue one. The blue one doesn't have those upper alignment fingers, and it looks like it had the release...

    2001 Suburban 3/4 Ton oil block off plate

    Welp, I slept on it....said screw it, I will put in the new oil lines....I had a feeling I shouldn't take the easy way and block it off, which for my 99 Classis OBS was fine, but I'm not experienced enough with a 6.0 to feel comfortable doing that. Elbow deep in grease now, can't think of...

    2001 Suburban 3/4 Ton oil block off plate

    The rubber itself is wet and compromised now because I tried taking them off this past Sunday and jad to really force it to move it and then got to the point I ran out of time so I put them back on because they would not come out without dropping the front diff from it.... One line at the crimp...

    2001 Suburban 3/4 Ton oil block off plate

    Gents!! Curious to know if an oil block off plate on my 3/4 ton 6.0 would hurt anything?? For towing, I pull our 34 foot camper and the longest trip is typically around 300 miles one way, once per year...other trips are a lot closer. Other than that, it's just driven with no pulling. Other...
