    What have you done to your square lately??

    I put the RideTech streetgrip system on KY 87 R10, but found out the hard way I needed to have all the OEM suspension parts on the truck. Also, if you do get this kit, don't get the upper and lower tubular control arms, or strong arms as Ridetech calls them. They made my truck impossible to to...

    87 Chevy R10 New Member

    Welcome and I have an 87 R10 350 SBC w/700r4 as well and I've had it for 16 years now while being my daily driver for the last 10 years. She's been good to me so far, driven to the west coast and back twice and up and down the east coast, so far so good.

    Long tube headers/dual exhaust question

    I just had long tube headers and 2 1/2" dual exhaust put on my 87R10, but I wanted to know if I should put an H pipe on it or just leave it? An X pipe would be a lot more work. Would it be any better or the same leaving it as is or not. Thank you.

    LMC Parts

    Justhorns is right about shipping coat from LMC. Seems like I've paid more for shipping than the small order I bought. I only buy from them if I really have to because parts I buy usually never fit right, rust way too fast or are just bad quality. Case in point the bumpers I bought has the...

    Weird grinding noise coming from engine

    My 87 R10 Silverado is making a grinding/whining sound. Kinda like when a crappy car is backing up. It sounds like it's coming from the harmonic balance pulley, but I'm not totally sure. Any suggestions would be great. Saw some vids about maybe it being the alternator pulley bearing. I have the...

    High beam selector

    I have an 87 R10 with the quad lighting, reg on too and highs on bottom. I had an issue in my steering coulmn I took care if, but that plastic piece that holds the high beam selector metal rod fell out until I put it back in, hopefully the right way, but it's not doing anything when I try to...

    80BrownK10 Thanks for the info and clarifications. I've had my 87 for about 11 years now and for the past 6 it's been my daily driver, so I try to make sure I keep it running well. I've driven cross country twice and from NC to NJ and back a couple times. I guess I'm just trying to keep her...

    HVAC issues

    Ok all, I tried unplugging the purple wire that gives the motor power and the fuse still blew on high. I've changed the relay, resistor, even though I prob shouldn't have and the blower selector switch. I'm at a loss of what to do. Thank you for the advice though because I def wouldn't have...

    Power window/regulator

    I replaced both of my power window motors and the regulators on my 87 R10 with all new ones, but now on the drivers side when I roll the window down I'm getting a loud clunking noise. I followed all guidelines when replacing everything and I'm just a lil concerned that clunking will turn into...

    Hello all, I've been searching everywhere I can for how to videos for my 87 R10 and it's hard to find any that are specific to my truck. I know there's a range of time that trucks are about the same, but is there any where on the interweb that shows specific trucks by the year and not year range...

    HVAC issues

    Sorry just getting back to everyone. Thank you very much for all the help. I'll definitely try each suggestion. The motor isnt that old, bot even a year old yet, but that doesn't mean it cant be bad though. For the longest I was doing "shotgun" repairs to no avail. A couple times it worked for...
