    LS rear main seal leaking

    Ok well that tells me it is leaking only when running / shortly after, would you agree? IF it is the rear main on further inspection, I will buy the cover with seal already installed. The seal that is in it now is new and i think i may have messed it up when installing. It was a PITA, I do...

    LS rear main seal leaking

    I have not. Driveway is still very mushy. Definitely could be (and hoping it’s) leaking somewhere else. Just talking hypothetically right now. Main question: Where is the oil line at rest?

    LS rear main seal leaking

    Hey guys, trying to diagnose a leak which I am guessing is either the rear main seal or the cover itself. It does drip but it doesn’t leak bad, in other words the level on the stick stays fine, I haven’t had to add any oil yet. So I am partly trying to decide if it’s even worth it yet, and...

    K5 Frame Crack Honest Opinion

    I know the K5 frames like to crack by the steering box. I read something like “they are all cracked” or “if it isnt cracket yet, it will be”. Well, mine isn’t cracked. At least i cant see any cracks and I have looked damn close. I know i should just get the plate kit but I am also from the...

    Which bulbs are high beams

    Hey guys, with high beams on, which bulbs on this style front should be illuminated? And with sealed beams is there a different part number between high and low beams?

    Master cylinder ran dry

    Ricko hopefully getting to this tomorrow. I havent touched the pedal. I am not getting anything at the bleeders but I am getting fluid at the banjo bolt at the calipers. I have a 9/16 flare wrench that should arrive tomorrow for the master. They are tight. Should I still crack the master...

    3055645 duct baffle

    No, i put everything back without the baffle. Works great. All i can tell is theres a small pocket in the airbox that the baffle diverts air away from. So its hardly necessary. One thing i did was seal up where the defrost duct riser meets the airbox, you will notice there is a decent gap there...

    Master cylinder ran dry

    Good advice. Thanks. I havent touched the brake pedal yet. Are you referring to the hard lines? Only the rear went dry however I suspect the front will too as I am changing hoses and calipers up front due to seized bleeder screws

    Master cylinder ran dry

    Hey guys, adding extended brake hoses on my 87 K5 due to lift kit and finding some cracks. In the process the master cylinder went dry. At the time I thought it wasnt a terrible idea as the fluid looked pretty crappy anyway. Can i bleed the entire system as normal, cracking farthest bleeder...

    Under dash speaker opinion

    Thanks, ok I will run the 2 - 3.5” then. Those kenwoods are nice, i found something very similar. I had 2 - 6x9s in back from the PO which I decided to remove. Just fronts only will be fine for me. My interior is all stripped down. What are your thoughts about running the 2 - 3.5” on the sides...

    Under dash speaker opinion

    Looking for opinions. This is all budget oriented. Not a resto or hi end or anything like that, I have been sitting on a nice pair of 4x6 aftermarket speakers i planned to cut in under the dash before i realized that its tight. I actually screwed up and cut in the passenger side one before...

    Defrost duct gap

    There is a gap between the defrost duct and the inside hvac “main” box. This is a 87 K5 with AC. Am I missing a piece or is this how they came?

    3055645 duct baffle

    IYKYK. This baffle is in my 87 k5 blazer hvac box. The truck does have ac. The baffle is tied to a metal damper via a linkage on the outside of the box. The baffle is driven by the metal damper. There is a rod that goes thru the center of it. These baffles are prone to breakage apparently and...

    Vents smell like piss

    Yes and no, i found the “baffle” they call it, the plastic door. Its worth its weight in gold. So that one i will try to repair. And the metal door, the plastic latch they make a metal replacement for $16, so i have that coming. But i believe due to the baffle being broken, when i actuate the...
