I can't wait in a couple weeks to get my C10 out and start working on it to 67 Chevy truck short bed having a blast with it for 12 years. Lucky you are inspiring thank you so much from Erie PA

[@luckysgarageshow]

mark kowalski Thanks for watchin Mark

[@joelwilliams7805]

67 is a great year. Good looking and strong. Have fun !!

[@darrylvohs5526]

Thank you, now I need to check my 4x4 van I built. When I installed the Sterling rear I just eyeballed the diff to the transfer case and welded the perches. I must of gotten seriously "lucky" because it drives really nice! Thanks again.

[@gnaxel]

Thanks for all the great KZbin content Lucky. Really appreciate it

[@zevkarter9600]

I dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly forgot my password. I would love any help you can give me.

[@gaelharlem656]

@Zev Karter Instablaster :)

[@zevkarter9600]

@Gael Harlem I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im trying it out atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@zevkarter9600]

@Gael Harlem It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thanks so much you saved my ass !

[@gaelharlem656]

@Zev Karter no problem xD

[@erikrapoport7318]

Just downloaded the Tremec Toolbox! Thanks for that tip, I'm going to tackle a c4 suspension on a 58 Chevy truck, that'll help!

[@deegan727]

I used the TREMEC app for setting up my pinion angle on my lifted K5 blazer. I had to go with a double cardan joint shaft so I had to cut off my perches and weld new ones on. Great app and very accurate I verified with the tried and true protractor because I was skeptical but didn’t need to.

[@johnburch6927]

Always great spending some time your shop. I think most would agree that there is a lot of sweat and blood that went into that truck, not just anyone can put it together like you have. Respect!

[@1966badnova]

dude I literally sent that app to all my gearhead friends. I hope tremec is paying you. Thanks from Houston.

[@the_langss]

Thanks for the Video.... Cool Rolling Billboard.....all great products....Thanks for the Tip on the Tremec Toolbox.... That is really going to come in handy. Stay Healthy and Safe My Friend....Regards.

[@aguerra5344]

Dam thanks a lot Big Luck I did a drop on my truck well suv lol an my Block were angled an I think I installed the backwards so my rear end is pointing up instead of down lol after everything was bolted back up dropped on the floor I got underneath the rear were the spare would be an I said hmmm 🤔 🧐 🤨 that don’t seem right if I hit a bump technically it would possibly hit the floor lol 😂 it a project so I haven’t moved it or even flip the block foward lol but now I know an saw this app you used definitely will use it wen I flip the blocks around they came angled for the 3” inch block 2” inch are flat but thank for the information Luck 🤙🏼💪🏼

[@captainalex8923]

Haha I was just thinking about my pinion angle on my c10 lol. Just got the frame and suspension back from powder coat and ready for assembly thanks for the tips !!!

[@stevekegerreis1962]

Thank you for your tips. It sure helps me . My next project is lowering and leveling ot my 05 Chevy crew cab

[@stingray427man]

“Lucky” to have pretty much all the top brands on that tailgate 😎🤙

[@joelwilliams7805]

Yeah right

[@mikescott4007]

I used the Tremec app when I built my truck. It’s great and it’s free.

[@mikescott4007]

Hi Lucky I am using the Tremec app on my truck build. I used it to position the motor and trans .And when I cut the frame in have to make the truck a short bed.You can get super precise.One tip if you have your phone in a case and the buttons stick out take the phone out of the case .The buttons will give you false numbers.

[@herbiederby3394]

I dig the tailgate and the app thanks for tech tip lucky.....👍🤙

[@chrismarshjr86]

I have been wondering how well that app worked thanks lucky

[@avalillyshow2113]

Thanks...for the awesome app info!!!

[@markkowalski3575]

I love this guy he's like us Chevy all the way in the blood along with an ice cold Labatt Blue

[@PJ-yx8ug]

Chevy for life. Old Fords with Chevy engines is my thing.

[@chevelle19721]

@8:40 don't forget to tighten those U-Joint strap nuts!

[@davidhess3320]

Sorry if this is an old video. not really mechanically inclined but did my drop on my truck myself. I'm trying to understand the app. Would the drivline operating angle be what determines the shims you would need for the leaf spring? Thank you

[@tdawg8169]

Great video with user friendly app...thanks!

[@charlestorruella8591]

Love your channel man your one of the good guys so many KZbinrs worry about plugging and selling merch although you do that form time to time it is done so tastefully everyone else Rams it down your throat and we love ya for not doing that

[@markkowalski3575]

Thanks for the feedback

[@aggie91kuenemann76]

Really enjoy your videos. What is the tire size on your ‘67 C10?

[@mdplemons]

MSD is always generous with the stickers. The Tremec toolbox is handy

[@chevdad1566]

So just for the record, do u have any AFR heads on the pickup? Lol. Tremec app will be great for my 70 chevelle rearend swap.

[@nygelali3716]

[@charlestorruella8591]

[@projectinlinesix]

How does that manual master cylinder treat you on the street? I've been thinking of nabbing one for my C10

[@TheCanadianBubba]

[@bornwestusa]

So why does it vibrate if the angle is "green" ??

[@TheCanadianBubba]

Is that your original rear axle back in ? Older footage ? Thats not looking particularly 9 inch ish...

[@hotrodjones427]

The Vibrolas! I've seen them a couple of times in Lexington. They flat out rock.

[@ldnwholesale8552]

Those hairpins on the front are an accident waiting to happen. They bind up suspension big time, The pinion angle thing,, On racecars I run them about 5 deg down as they hook harder. Road race car was 170mph car with no problems,, and that with a equal length axle Ford Commercial so the tailshaft was offset as well. Oval track car is even greater angle and again with no dramas and around 8" of travel at the shock. 5" down and 3" up

[@luckysgarageshow]

Hairpins ?

[@luckysgarageshow]

Oh your talking about the Roadster.....

[@joelwilliams7805]

That will help.

[@bryanroupe8646]
