Should I move the axle back?
Debating on whether I should put in the work to move the axle back to center it in the wheel well or just run it the way it is? It's a qp 9 inch and I need to order my drive shaft very soon.

Project 1976 K10, my daughters truck
Found some old school rims on Marketplace for this truck, just finished up installing all the smog related items to pass! After I get done doing body and paint on my 1986 K10, and my wife’s 1988 K5, I’ll learn to replace a few panels on her 1976 K10. Square-body Family

Need help
Had a fan shroud break in my dad's 1978 Chevy silverado with a/c. The part number on the shroud is 470906-1. Its the top piece. I ordered a new one from npd and it doesn't match. Its too short. Theres a version of it thats heavy duty cooling and one's thats not. If anyone knows what the difference is or where I can get a fan shroud please let me know. Thanks

1981 Chevy C20. Need advice please.
Hello all, first time on this thread. Recently acquired this old square body and plan on keeping it a while. Auto transmission. Asking for some thoughts please...planning to upgrade in phases.
Phase 1: get it running reliably. It does now, but is sluggish. Thought about replacing plugs, wires, air/fuel filter as a start. What else?
Phase 2: slowly upgrade performance. Initial thoughts are to start with intake/carb, headers/exhaust, and ignition. Would rather not get into the heads/block because at that point, I'd probably just do an LS swap, turbo or supercharger, trans/rear diff upgrade, etc.

She's is ready to be worked on in the summer
1/10 What do you think
got it for 800$. Is that a good deal? I got it last week, and I drove it like twice, which is fine as i am going to order some new parts. What are some common square body issues I should look out for?

1979 Custom Deluxe K10 - value?
We are looking to sell our 79 K10, the body is rough but it runs well. The floorboards on both sides have rust holes and the passenger side outer rocker at the top pinch weld is rotted. I have the replacement pieces to fix the floors and outer (and inner) rockers, as well as the cab corners. Wondering what it would be worth if we sold as is or if it would increase the value much to fix with the parts I have. I can do the work myself but its more a matter of having the time. Engine is a 350 and the Trans is TH350 (NP203 TC).

86 c20 "What dat do?"
Buttoning up a top end rebuild on my 350. I did remember accidentally tearing this wire, that was grounded to the back of the cylinder head when I pulled it out. It seems to come out of that loom and be black in color. For sure a ground, but specifically to the head? Or can I ground it to the cab?
Anyone got an idea what it could be for? 🤙🏻

I need someone to explain this to me. I’m not understanding. Or maybe I’m overthinking it.

4x4 question
Just bought a 75 sierra. 4x4 question, looking at the shifter I take it being in “n” is two wheel drive, up for 4x4 low and down for 4x4 hi? Then lock front hubs in hi or low for true 4x4? And how can you tell which your in at any given time. Like I haven’t touched it since I bought because I’m not sure and don’t want to break anything. Lol.

She’s losing fuel pressure as it gets warm, popped the hood after about 15 minutes and saw this! Send advice please!
It’s a 383 Blueprint with an inline filter, aluminum tank to pump lines, and new 3 port fuel pump. My setup worked all last summer, now she’s giving me problems!

Does your door shut hard even hard after new seals?
Even after adjusting door post had to slam the door. This really helps. Brush a lining the seals
