As cucvrus said, I put a humvee crossover on mine, but I had a leaking radiator, so I did several things at the same time. I used a Summit double gauge setup, they are on sale sometimes for cheap. The Summit gauges I ordered were black with a black bracket. Fits perfect under the ashtray...

I'm going to. I spent 3 days working on it, I just have to wait for my next day off to be able to do anything with it. I haven't done anything on this truck yet that wasn't neglected or ignored by a previous owner. Apparently, these trucks seem to be really good places to hide money your...

Two good batteries. Got to start somewhere

Day 3 turned out not much better. I cleaned lots of connections. Eliminated a bunch of Fire Dept wiring, also a live 24v wire that was just taped on the end, just hanging out under the dash. Cranked after cycling the key several times, ran and warmed up, seemed ok. Fixed a leaky radiator...

Thanks, I'll check that too

To clarify, it does everything it should except crank. I'm cleaning connections tomorrow, might bypass some fusible links too. We will see.

Day 2 update, work all done, now it doesn't start. No click, nothing. It did this once or twice, I believe there is a bad connection somewhere. At least I'm not 30 miles from home, test light and battery charger for tomorrow.

You're telling me, I got a building with 3 sides and a dirt floor I work out of in the summer, winter means a lot of not really doing much unless I can sneak in somewhere

Thanks Buddy, I'm using my favorite brother in law's building, I'm only a few feet from the woodburner, it's T-Shirt weather over here. Hope my block heater shows up tomorrow, I think I have everything else lined up.

Removed the leaking radiator and some other things, ordered a block heater, hoping to get it all back together and running tomorrow.

If you have a brake line flare tool kit, single flare the line before you put the rubber line on it. I've done it a few times

Mine had a similar episode, the battery cable was bad between the negative post on the rear battery and the solenoid on the firewall. I put a jumper there, it cranked right up. I have always been suspicious of that cable, it's a homemade one

^^^ This has been my experience with most of my GM stuff, you know something is up when the turn indicator lights up

As I have discovered before, and I'm sure lots of us can attest to, sometimes we are our own worst enemy. This especially applies to electrical connections, even if we "say" it's a temporary or "test" connection.

Just asking, is that a custom camo pattern? Looks like some woodland over tan, but I like it

I use the gray diesel kleen in the warm weather. I use the white diesel kleen in the cold weather. 2 stroke TCW-3 year round. Sometimes I have leftover atf I drop in there

Man that is one nasty looking master cylinder. Did you replace the dot 5 stuff with dot 3 when you changed everything out?

omg I'm not sure I could have let that one go. It's a lot nicer than anything else I'm driving plus it's nicer than anything I've owned for the last 15 years. I think I understand fussing over it, I bet shopping carts and tornados had it on the radar

I saw that video, when I showed it the guys at work they were laughing like we did in high school

I found where my coolant is going today. Guess I need a radiator
