Here's a Q?. Can I take braided steel gas lines off my K5 and use them for extended brake lines on my K10?

Power steering cooler

furd exploder tranny cooler from junkyard 5$ or so
longer return line 5$ or so
clamp 3$ or so
steering filter 3$ or so
Also some dodge caravans have a nice auxilary cooler. It even has a mounting bracket attached to it
 
move your rear shackle eye foward...
cost-only a couple bolts from the harware store.
purpose-to greatly inprove your shackle angle for a better ride and better flex.

Im about to do this mod myself so we will see how it goes.


PS- also make a set of longer shackles out of some steel to compensate for the shackle angle..

would you care to explain the headlight realy mod? does it make them brigher of cause less power draw?

You lose your voltage drop due to the smaller wires that gm used.

I essintially have the same setup as Dontoe, except I have 4 headlights and used two CB'sl, one for each relay. Don't shortcut it with a fuse, because if the fuse blows you lose your lights. If the CB trips, it automatically resets.
 
ah...so when i have my headlights on and use the back window my lights wont dim anymore? SAWEET! this is my next mod :) haha
 
I must say cutting out fenders is a massive PITA. I just sawzalles of a bit and took the 10 pound stainles sledge to it. Still rubs a bit.

Edit: Cut of wheel is a lot easier

removable doors, which happens to be on the home page here. i like to see outside the truck and mud taste great too!!!! j/k
 
Mix JB weld [ or any thing thats 2 parts ] in the bottom of a cold coke can.It wont harden so fast.
 
Pam

Spray some PAM or other nonstick spray on the wheelwells before getting in the mud. It makes cleanup a lot easier.

it allows the low beams to stay on with the high beams
you wire the relay to power the low beams when the high beams are on
the power wire for the high beams is used to switch on the relay
