    Clunking noise when starting

    Did yours just randomly start doing it one day? Or has it since you’ve owned it?

    Clunking noise when starting

    It’s possible.. especially with it being a reman.. but what I don’t get is why it only seems to do it when the truck is warmed up.. unless it’s just by chance that it’s never done it when the truck has been sitting

    Bumper guards

    Hey guys.. I am looking to get a pair of bumper guards for my 79.. and all I can find on any aftermarket site is 81-87.. and i know I’ve seen the bumper guards on 73-80’s before.. does anyone know if the 81-87 will fit my 79? Or do guys put on the 81-87 bumper on the 73-80 and that’s how the fit?

    General question about transmissions

    So I’m a novice when it comes to these square bodies.. I was wondering if anyone could list all the different trans. that came in the 73-87 time frame? I’ve tried looking it up and I can’t really find a solid list.. also maybe which motors they typically went with? Or differences in 2wd and...

    Rear end question

    I was curious if anyone could give me some info on the numbers stamped on my rear end.. mainly curious if you can tell the gear ratio from it.. it’s a corporate 12-bolt on a 79 k10.. I’ve researched the heritage site.. and I can’t find any matches

    Questions about body work

    Thank you to everyone who has replied.. I like reading everyone’s different opinions.. the 2 main factors against me doing it myself are time and space.. my job is a very high overtime job.. I work usually around 55-65 hours a week.. sometimes as much as 70-80.. and I have 3 kids under the age...

    Questions about body work

    Yeah the frame is the main reason I bought the truck.. I owned a 86 before this and among other issues it had frame rot on it.. so I am happy to not have to worry about that with my 79.. and the truck has spent the majority of its life in Colorado until the previous owner brought it to Illinois..

    Questions about body work

    thank you for throwing some numbers out there for me.. you bring up a good point about losing the original value with the cab corners and rockers.. I don’t have an issue using after market parts.. as long as they are semi-quality parts.. I don’t want a paper thin door on a truck that I hope to...

    Questions about body work

    So this is the first truck I’ve owned that I plan on getting a major amount of body work done to it. I plan on having a body shop do the work due to me having zero experience and a job with a large amount of overtime.. I have a few questions for anyone with experience doing the work or taking it...

    Hello everyone, I just got rid of a 86 k10 that had some rot on the frame.. smoked and leaked oil.. and got my self a nice 79 k10 with a very solid frame with a strong running motor.. but the body needs some work.. I’ve been a fan of square bodies since I was a kid riding around with my dad in...
