Radio Rack Installed the rear radio shelf this weekend... Sanded it, then used rust stripper and conditioner and then painted it. I am planning on making some sort of padded cover for it so the kiddos don't bash themselves up with it. I will post some pics when all is done.

Removed the topper for the summer... Camping with the kids soon.

Looks Great especially like the price

Have added an AB-15 Antenna on the Bracket and Brush Guard. Looks great. Planning on purchasing a CB radio for it. I also used the antenna hole on the other side for an after market GM radio antenna. Just a temp mount for now. I have been moving into my new house and that has taken priority. I...

Where in CO?

I added my ab-15 antenna with an antenna bracket and brush guard. Still don't have a CB but that will be next. Also put in the new headlights.

K9Vic wouldn't you want to fix the rear window crank before you spend more on accessories?

I finally went to the hardware store and mounted my center console to the floor. It's just the OEM from an 85 K5 that was in the Salvage yard locally.

Did some tightening of the belts and added some belt conditioner... replaced the trio-diode and voltage regulator in GEN 2, no more idiot light coming on... Still need to get a new GEN 1. Installed a touch dome light... Cost me $6 at Ace takes AA batteries. Great low budget lighting. Here are...

Here is another couple of projects done this weekend. I painted the rear bumper black (going to do the front grill and bumper as well). I also installed a roof rack made by Thule and Yakima combined. I found the gutter for the rack along with the towers at an REI garage sail for $150 (that's an...

Here are some pictures of the new tie rods. The first pic is of the old wheel bearing that was trashed. I know I'm not the first person to do this but it was my first time trying... I am becoming more of a weekend mechanic as I thought. I am proud of the work. I have more posts coming.

Oh yeah Tie rods need to be replaced as well... Doing that next.

Had a close call today... Noticed some noise this last weekend while driving. I couldn't figure out what the noise was... Turned out today that my wheel bearings were shot on the passenger side! I was luckily in Napa's parking lot when it started to go out... I replaced it with the help of a...

I finally added my bridge plate to the front bumper... I have a dash mounting plate coming in the mail..That's next.

What type or brand is that

Have one just not in the picture... I know about the donkey d--k!!!:mrgreen:

Ok So just a few more things to add... I have replaced my rear window crank, mounted a 5 Litre fuel tank in the rear, jimmy rigged a wing nut for the spare using misc parts from the hard ware store. I also have a new center console and a power inverter I plan on plugging accessories in. I added...

Replaced both alternator belts, windshield wiper motor from another chevy truck, new wiper blades, new review mirror, replaced starter/battery cable, doghead relay, jimmy rigged a wing nut mount for the spare tire, and hmmm... I am sure there is more... Will add later.

I finally replaced my flexplate (flywheel). I have been having so many starting issues and it finally came down to the flexplate missing some teeth and being worn... Now it starts like a champ.! It only took two of us approximately 7 total hours. But we got it!

how did you mount the ammo can for a console? There is the angle sloping down between the seats...How did you compensate for it? I have the same can so I was just wondering.
