    Bought an '87 long bed on Bring a Trailer a few days ago

    Top dollar yes but a solid buy for sure. Good decision. Welcome aboard from the PNW.

    Welcome to the parade. Just a stone's throw from King Co, WA. Sweet ride to start with. Lots of good YouTube channels to watch on Squarebodies but my fav is Vice Grip Garage.

    Pumping gas is a pain!

    Thanks for the replies. My truck hasn't been on the road for awhile but I am getting closer to getting it running. I will check the hoses to see if that is the problem.

    Dodge 440 in K10 Motor Mounts

    Also, for those that like "dirty pictures," these are the mains and journals from the 350 I pulled.

    Dodge 440 in K10 Motor Mounts

    Appreciate all the feedback and great advice. That said, I took the easy out and bought a 350 from my neighbor. The 440 will wait for a dodge vehicle. Came close to buying one or two but the wife wants me to do one project at a time. Rats!

    Dodge 440 in K10 Motor Mounts

    I have the opportunity to put a Dodge440 into my 75 K10 pickup. I found a bell housing to hookup the TH350 but haven't located motor/engine mounts to make it work. Any ideas where I might find said items?

    Pumping gas is a pain!

    Hello all, hope the summer finds you turning wrenches. Quick question. Whenever I use public gas stations with gas fume capture hoses, the gas almost immediately backs up and shut the flow off. It also usually spits fuel out onto the ground. I have to hold the hose at the perfect angle and pump...

    Please Help me get this truck going!

    Rusty Nail, I like the way you think. Made me laugh as well.

    1990 Suburban V1500 - Forum Rookie

    Sweet ride. I can appreciate the color. Mine came from a rattle can until I could decide what to do, The paint was chipping off in silver dollar size flakes and the constant moisture in the PNW was causing problems. The rattle can bought me some time (5 years and counting) and now that I...

    1990 Suburban 454 Oil Pressure jumping

    PS, I have a 75 K10 with a mild 350. I ran with low oil pressure for almost 10 years. My son borrowed the truck and it overheated. Not sure what cause what but it appears to have blown one of the main bearings. I will likely never know what happened but it ran like a champ with low oil...

    Best Door Hinge Lubricant

    I confess to using WD40. My door hinges were the worst and WD cleared it right up. I don't use the truck much so the doors don't see more use. I have used various lubricants over the years but I find WD worked the best.

    New member, blown motor!

    Well, that was embarrassing. This was meant for another post. That will teach me to multitask.

    New Member - 88 Suburban in Arkansas

    Hello from PNW. Can't help you with the paint codes but I am not sure they would match the paint still. I would eyeball it with something off the shelf. I have used LMC. They are a bit slow to ship but most places are. I ordered a wing vent from them once. The vent worked fine but the paint was...
