I just picked a 1984 k10 Silverado. Rusting in the usual places cab corners and rockers not too bad. I love the truck though! It has headers edelbroc carb and intake true duals sitting on ar wheels and 33's. Interior is really dirty but I think will clean up ok. Sony CD player and a couple of 12's behind the seat. It sounds amazing , very surprised with the quality of sound!

So to the part that has me scratching my head:shrug: I went to change out the door striker on the drivers side because the busing was gone. When I took the old one out I heard a clunk and there was just a square hole no threaded piece to screw the new one in to so now I can't close the door and it stay shut. How do I fix this?

Welcome to GMSB !!!


Geez, I wish you had found the How to fix those slamming door thread first. I'm not real sure how to get that door striker fixed. Maybe start up a separate thread asking about ideas. We'll come up with something, we always do.
