It takes the larger brakes. Don't let anyone talk you into using the small width shoes just because they fit and work. It is brakes you are working on. \ https://www.rockauto.com/en/catalog/chevrolet,1984,k5+blazer,6.2l+379cid+v8+diesel,1050589,brake+&+wheel+hub,brake+shoe,1688 AC Delco 14473B

Today I was off early to help a family friend split some wood. I always knew why I bought the towing package. It spilt a lot of wood. Mainly I run the lever. Then I came home and repaired my little wood hauler. I removed a used starter from a parts tractor and fixed all my issues. Something is...

Also keep in mind you can get self exciting voltage regulators installed in the stock alternators and then the idiot lights in the dash are not needed. I had them put on 2 plow trucks that I had to work on every year or two. That is over with now. Good Luck.

That is a civilian jack that you have. that is for the earlier 80's model 2WD that were so low they came from the factory with Tire Size(s) 225/75R15 = 28.3x8.9R15 235/75R15 = 28.9x9.3R15 tires and that loop goes on the front lower control...

Ship it PA and I will fix it for you. You can drive it back home and enjoy the scenery. Sounds like a challenge and it is probably something simple. The guys at the dealerships were babies when they built these trucks. I was a young guy just starting out when they came to the dealership I worked...

Here's a nice stock Chevrolet Civilian truck set up that fits on the left inner fender well under the hood. I was digging around and came across lots of parts and misc. stuff. I had a vehicle that was going to the crusher and always clean up and fill it with scrap smalls and what ever is...

Those are Ground Hogs. Speaking of Ground Hogs I feel like one after a day like today. Very dirty and tired. I will elaborate later but right up front. The M1009 project never happened today. I did manage to locate some awesome grade 8 1/2" flange bolts that will work perfect for the cab...

Today my progress will be thwarted a bit. I have mandatory work at my day job. All is well I will do my best to get things done. Manchmal laufen die Dinge nicht wie geplant. Aber ich werde es wieder gut machen. Have a Great Day and Be Safe.

???????? I always try and be a problem solver. Thank you.

Throttle shaft seals. IMHO it needs a rebuilt pump. Don't dance around the issue. Fix it once and done. That is my best advice. I changed many and it cures a lot of issues at once. Good Luck.

I have a few. I used them jacks for leveling a few sheds.

There will be no boredom here in my barn this weekend. I can always find stuff to do when the mail and parts arrive on time. The Energy Suspension body mounts have arrived and I didn't pay the shipping. Free is always good for shipping. I should have bought the RED at least you can see they...

You can cut and drill the 27 MT support bracket to fit the 28 MT starter. All you need to do is mount the bracket up on the block loosely and pivot it back and forth to scribe a mark where the starter stud will make contact. Then remove the bracket cut it to length and drill a 1/4" hole. And the...

I have the luxury of having a loader and a back hoe so I decide where the water runs. I smash thru snow piles and spread them out everyday the sun is shining. It does create a lot of runoff if not managed. Keep it a far away from buildings as possible and shovel everyday to thin it out and get...

My point about the steel pipe nipple in the aluminum alloy coolant manifold is not whether you can get it out. It is can you get it back in after you get it out? I see the threads in the manifold coming along with the nipple. Maybe not but I find it easier to remove the coolant manifold since...

I would remove the entire coolant crossover manifold. I would think no farther of removing the steel nipple adapter from the aluminum cross over. Like I stated the gaskets on the coolant manifold need serviced anyway. And if things get desperate I can send you a few new M10 flange bolts for...

You need to use an impact on them bolts. The hard strike of the impact will free them from the corrosion. If they are that bad the gaskets need changed anyway. Good Luck. Get impact sockets and move on.

I would park on the uphill side and plow all down hill. I had a few lanes like that in the past. All mountain dirt roads. I used to drop off a truck the day before the snow or drive up with the plow raised and plow down hill. Plowing up hill is fruitless and hard on equipment. Good Luck.

I don't cut the nuts off. Just heat them and hit them with the impact. Done.

Made my order for the Energy Suspension body mount kit. part # 3.4118G Motor mount and transmission mount kit part # 3.1124G Both in Black. Red was tempting but I knew that wasn't an option. My last build has RED but I didn't buy them they were gifted to me. Never mattered they look just as good.
