I have an 81 K10 with factory lights and wiring and im planning on upgrading to leds. Do I need to be concerned about upgrading housings or wiring to ward off potential overheating issues or electrical fire from the old wiring?

I have another question. I have a 1955 Chevy truck 3100 second series and have a 6 lug 15” wheels. With the front disc brake conversion kit can I still fit the 15” 6 lug wheels on it. It says in the comments on the kit it may not. How will I know if it does and if not what happens with my purchase. These are not cheep and I want to also purchase the firewall power booster.

That tank looks like it drops very low. Is there another option for a smaller tank that won't need all the cutting of cross sills and frame? I would like to do a dual tank set up.

Question: On a 85 chevy c10, putting fenders back on and the cage nut for the front fender (located just above the upper door hinge) disappeared. Probably fell down into the lower part of the cowl. Cant find it and can not get to the spot where this nut goes from the inside of the truck under the dash. Only holes there are to high or too low, any ideas???

I have a 1986 K10 short bed, that short bed injection really counts when talking about the dash instrumentation... Ha. That inset pic of the original incandescent lighting is not representative oF MY dash lights. My dash lights were SO DIM, that they might as well not be on. I actually bought a GPS self lighting bicycle computer to see the mileage and speed (MPH) of the truck. More on this later. I had some work done on the truck and when I got it back, my instruments, other than the speedometer, were dead. My voltage, Temperature and fuel level were non responsive. Now These square bodies come with a 16 gallon fuel tank. MY K10 averages 10 MPG so I'm good for 160 miles per tank. Without the fuel guage working, you stand a good chance of running out of gas. The GPS bicycle cyclometer tracks speed and mileage. I had the carborator worked on before this fiasco, so when I reached 100 miles, I checked the mileage, I was at 14 mpg. Even better. I was prepared to use the GPS Bicycle cyclometer to track gas should the tank level device be bad till I can drop the tank. thank goodness, that was good. So the job of going into the dash that I had put off for years now, had to be done. I had done some work in the past when I added some LED indicators in the lower left position, which on my dash was blank. Those indicators were for some switches to indicate they were on or off. To get to the guages, all you have to take off is the bezel, the clear plastic dust screen and the light reflector bezel. Some time in the past, GM switched from guages that had screw terminal to guages that just plugged in. If you had the screw type terminals, you had to remove the entire guage instrument panel assembly. Luckily, my model has the plug in guages. Watching the vids, there are scenarios were the guages can be burnt out or the printed ckt could have burnt open, but lets call this extreme. Fact that most don't know is, the guages have a resistor on the back in ckt with the sensors that feed them signal. I am told, that 8 times out of 10, that resistor will go bad. When it does the guage associated with it stops working. I tested the resistors and every one was burnt out. And yes these are specific resistors for the guage, and if you can find them will cost about $25 to $35 EACH. But you can replace them with a 5 watt 90 ohm CERAMIC resistor for about $5 apiece. Now along this adventure of fixing the guages, my dash lighting was terrible. I thought I recalled that when the truck was newer, the dash lights were brighter, but today, you can hardly see them. Maybe its my eyes, or the incandescent bulbs turning dark from use but the dash is dark. HUGE TIP, now that you are pulling the guages, you have access to the bulbs to replace with LED bulbs. Put the parking lights on as you put them in as they are polarized, if you plug them in and they don't light, pull them and turn them around. With all the lights replaced you can plug in the guages and test for operation. All my guages came back, big thumbs up. Reassembling the panel was fast and that evening I took it for a drive and enjoyed the best bright dash lights, that ARE Dimmable to the headlight control switch. WELL WORTH THE UPGRADE.

Hello, we've spoken before,i have an 88 blazer and i have buckle seats and i am going to replace my cracked seat belt sleeves.As i was taking the bolt out that holds the existing sleeve down to the floor i noticed there are a couple wires that go from the body on the floor into my sleeve.Do i need to be careful taking the old sleeve off and do they end somewhere inside the sleeve as i dont see anything out of the other end? Are they needed in my 88 blazer and aren't they just an indication on your dash that your seat is or isn't buckled?

Thanks for giving a detailed installation of the seals and window. This was a good instructional video with full view of installation versus the start and fast forward to the end as some videos illustrate. What was the second tool that was metal with what used to look like a bottle opener called. I see on Amazon the plastic tool and some other window installation tools but I am not seeing the beveled on the end prong. Any suggestions? I do see the "Worldity 12 piece windshield installation tools kit" but again not like the item shown today. Thanks for any suggestions.

Great video! Thanks for posting this. Usually when I do this job I'll put some silicone grease on the cross shaft journals and a little on the inside of the control arm bushing inner sleeves and also on the outside rubbers so that nothing freezes or rusts in case I need to disassemble the bushings again in the future. The silicone grease won't attack the rubber bushing like petroleum grease would and it keeps the bushings conditioned so they last a long time. Great video!
