    What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)

    Ah fair enough, I must’ve misread that. Do you think it’s worth 10-15k ish? That’s about what I’d need for a down payment atm.

    What’s IT Worth? (Post all “what’s it worth threads here)

    Fair enough, not worth selling at that price imho. I'll just keep it as a winter DD and work on it as needed. I've easily spent 2x that on just parts and the trans rebuild.

    NP208 stuck between gears/nuetral

    I’ve been driving my NV4500/LS swap and recently tried to engage 4 low, couldn’t get the transfer case to move properly and now it’s stuck somewhere between gears or in neutral. I can’t force it up or down into 2H/4H. What can I do to diagnose/fix my issue? Is it the alignment? I recently...

    Fox shocks

    Hello, I picked up a pair of fox shocks with reservoirs cheap af locally from a K5 owner. They measure 25” fully extended and 14 compressed. Can I run these on the rear of my 84 K10? It looks like they’ll be a few inches longer than what’s currently on my truck. Open to any suggestions or...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    So everything is back to working normal (Coolant is now pegged for some reason which requires further delving), but why tf does a fusible link cause all these issues? Is the "slow burn" aspect of it allow power through for a period of time while the wire burns? Can I replace a fusible link with...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Truck started after replacing the fusible link. Now to figure out why it blew. Also now to figure out why I lost my dash/radio a few days before. Always something.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Okay, so after charging up my battery I’ve got no power at the firewall. If I jump the battery directly to the posts on the firewall and try to start the car I can hear what i think is the starter solenoid. Starter doesn’t attempt to turn. Since this is an LS swap and I didn’t do the wiring...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Tested my starter, works fine. I tested the firewall, has 12v, then I tested the wires at the neutral safety switch, and had no power at any time. Went up to the ignition switch, pulled it off and tested the wires. I had no power on any of the metal tabs. Currently looking at a wiring diagram...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Starter was good prior to today. Never had an issue starting my truck, one turn and it was going. I’m just getting and Shooting out ideas. I’m happy to get the volt meter out and test things. I’ll go over everything again tomorrow and verify.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Had a local guy say the starter solenoid could be bad. Might try testing that.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Nope, I could get the starter to click a bunch, but nothing even attempting to start

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Drove it about 150 miles, got back drove to the store and wouldn’t start. No clicking, could hear the fuel pump. Swapped in a different ignition switch, checked my neutral safety switch, starter was working, battery was good. Didn’t have a volt meter on me, but will break it out tomorrow.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Just started up the truck to swap vehicles due to snow. Nothing I did could get the dash/radio on. Trucks running fine, going to throw an ignition switch at it tomorrow night and see if that fixes it. Pretty confused if it is my ignition switch, why my truck still starts up just fine.

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    That makes total sense, I’ve actually had issues with my ignition switch previously and had to replace it. Since I have a spare ignition switch on hand I’ll swap that in and see if that’s the cause. Is the switch a on/off switch or is it gradual? I've also noted my rod is slightly bent, I may...

    Dash/radio lose power on ignition wires

    Been driving my LS swap for a week now and I’m having an odd electrical issue. Occasionally my gauges/radio will turn off, and when I test them they are getting 1-1.8v instead of constant 12v to the accessory/ignition wire. It’s gettting 12v to power and has a good ground. If I leave them for...

    Axle swap help

    Basically my thought. An axle swap seems much better than figuring out how to swap gears or paying a shop. Did find a set of 4.11s two hours away for $600 front and back. Is that worth it?
