    "Where does this go?" or "It's lost" . . .

    Or the rain the comes and washes sharpie off the labeled bags of bolts.Then floods the bags making it all utterly useless. Last night wasn't fun. I cleaned the intake with break cleaner it makes quick work by jetting it in.

    Ex Wife- my LONG term build

    I also put the right stuff in the channel seams where it comes together. Not sure how much if any that will help the seal.

    Ex Wife- my LONG term build

    Got my headliner in the trunk right now about to drop it off at an upholstery shop nearby today. I took apart the hvac and welded it all back together yesterday with the jounjip plastic welder and the stock rods that came in the package. Not pretty but who is asking. SO far it seems adequate and...

    Interior factory firewall sound deadener

    The one deterrent for me is the fact that the factory stuff builds a firmness for the hvac to sit against. By removing the "in between" i fear it may fit more loose.. Its crazy to me that no one re manufactures this stuff. Am i wrong?

    Interior factory firewall sound deadener

    So with the rats having been in this truck and there still being an odor my assumption is that this factory sound deadener may have been pissed on.. I was going to pull it and run dynamat but noticed that the factory stuff is thicker and has molded contours for hvac etc. Anybody replaced this...

    Single 38 gal tank wiring

    I got this from another post. However I assume that by using this method have to retain the fsv connector? The front tank wire i want to go away (get rid of anything not neccessary). Hence why would I tie it in per the direction above?

    This does not look good

    Went to change fluid and pinion seal. To find this... what now? Is rust at all common? My assumption is that gasket either failed or wasn't installed correct at all. I scraped nothing from the face. I'm way over budget on this thing. How difficult fix?

    33 gal rear tank?

    I just ordered a 38 gal rear tank for the conversion. Then I got to thinking by the time the 38 gal is installed and the sump pick up is put on the bottom this thing will be pretty low. I thought there was a 33 tank option? Am I off on this. Obviously for diesel. All help appreciated.

    Factory Turbo Y pipe fit issue

    Its a 6 9 So as you can see in the pic my y pipe is not close to fitting. Hits the intake manifold and even the block from what I can see. Pre attaching it doesn't allow the turbo to sit on the pedestal. It's an either or situation. I can cut the tab off and it wouldn't be enough. What am I...

    E4OD from Monster Transmission for my 1993

    Monster transmission from my experience is trash. Yes I have bought one. Yes it took longer than expected. No it didn't look like what they sold me. No it wasn't easy to get a hold of someone, at all! No they don't do their own work. No it wasn't complete on arrival ( neutral safety switch...

    1987 Crew Cab 2WD Build

    Ok... so i got the intake on. Wow. that was a reeeaaal harlot. Primarily because I had to .Enlarge the intake bolt holes to 27/64" .Shorten roughly 8 Bolts. .Sanded the intake head surface Its fairly soft material which makes this a lot easier than something more dense. Even still it was twist...
