    Looking for a good sway bar (No, I said "SWAY" bar....)

    Yo- SS - That should be sufficient to prove my point, wouldn't you say?

    Looking for a good sway bar (No, I said "SWAY" bar....)

    My lifted 78 K5 Blazer suspension (+37" tires) does not perform very well on roads with lots of bumps and roots when I'm going 75+ MPH. Bounces around a lot and leans left and right a lot. I have a front sway bar. Perhaps adding a rear sway bar would help? I'm inquiring about a SWAY bar...

    Water in Cab still after lots of resealing

    The water was running down the front of my blower motor housing, and entering through a spot that had missing sealant. So water made it into the blower and then onto the floor. A little sealant fixed it.

    I’m building my first 383 stroker and need suggestions.

    If its your first build, I would take your time and go slow. Watch LOTS of YouTube videos and ask plenty of questions. One little mistake, and you may have to tear it down and start over again. Put tape on the positive battery terminal that says "ADD OIL / COOLANT". Turn it over by hand before...

    Chassis brackets and rubber motor mounts.

    Maybe swap to another type of valve covers. Or put some speed dents in your current ones. Might use speed dents for the firewall, as a last resort.

    Newly rebuilt 4l80e (700 miles) now won’t shift into 3rd gear

    Disconnect your kickdown linkage and see how it does. Will this get it into 3rd when coasting at 30 mph? If not, try moving the shifter to N while driving at 30, and let off the gas. Then does it go into 3rd?

    Harbor Frate Winches, good, bad, evil?

    Maybe so. maybe not. I'm thinking about selling them. From what I'm told, they have a lot of value. But they are not worth much to me. I paid about a G. From what I have been told by people looking at them - They are worth 50 to 60 in used condition. But most look to be in brand new...

    Harbor Frate Winches, good, bad, evil?

    Ah. Misread that title. Looking at the comments, I guess I'm not the first. But ya, I am not a tool expert. Just a user. And you are correct - I don't know much about Snap-on. I recently picked up a HUGE amount of Snap-on tools at an estate sale, and many of them are weird / unusual. Stuff I...

    Harbor Frate Winches, good, bad, evil?

    Getting back to the original question about Harbor "Frate" wrenches: A wrench is a wrench, for the most part. I have owned Craftsman, Snap-on, knock offs, dollar store wrenches etc. Very few kinds seem to be any better or more durable than others. The best type of wrench I have ever...

    Headliner redo Crew Cab

    They are kinda cool I guess. And cheap. If I were replacing my headliner, I might install a Starlight type:

    Windshield washer pump problems

    I would probably get the wipers working, and then add a new circuit and button to activate the washer.

    74 C10 front left disc locked

    Did you replace the rubber brake hose that comes off the caliper? The hose fails internally and turns into a check valve. Open the bleeder to confirm.

    Horn blares when my ac high low fan switch comes on

    Take 20 minutes and just re-wire the horn. Send the horn power wire to an always hot fuse, or even directly to the battery if you want it to be as quick and simple as possible.

    Help

    Are there any other problems with the truck that have not been mentioned?

    Help

    Ya, that narrows it down big time. It should be easy to locate the problem now. Assuming that your not missing any parts, maybe a broken axle, blown diff, damaged trans? My guess is that it has something to do with the shift linage, either internally or externally of the trans. Or what...

    Does "park" work? If you put it in park and push and pull on the bumper, does the parking gear stop the vehicle in both directions?

    Help

    Is the engine on? Is there a drive shaft? Is there a rear axle? Is the vehicle on a lift?
