Re: Crash's 72 K10
Filled and bleed the brakes today. Decide to go with DOT5, not sure if it is the right thing, but it is what I decided.
Also installed the vacuum booster hose. I got one at the GM parts place.. it is designed for a LS.. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Part number 15097187 After that I installed the antenna coax. Had to drill the hole for he coax. ![]() ![]() Tomorrow I will be working on the remote door locks, gas pedal, front side marker wiring, etc..

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Installed the remote door openers.. They worked out well. I little bit of a learning curve on calibrating the system.
![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Installed some of the door hardware.. I decided to use buttonhead hardware instead of the original phillps screw style. ![]() ![]() Installed the gas pedal.. A lot of trial and error to get it like I wanted. ![]()

Few things can top the joy of working on the inside of doors. You're really making headway now!

Re: Crash's 72 K10
I hear ya. It really gives you an appreciation for what goes into getting one of these done. Yours is really going to be worth all the aggravation.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
I know.. After Kyle finishes up jobs for you and Bryan he is going to try and give me a hand on lining up the front sheet metal on mine.. once I get that done I will be on the downhill side of this..

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Are those lock poppers from VH Coachworks? I am getting ready to install mine soon along with the SS door wire looms.It looks like a straight forward install but i'm sure it won't be.Truck looks great.Calvin.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Phew just got done reading through this also. Nice build, I'm usually over at the 2wd 67-72 section but something has been drawing me to the 4wd side. Recently just got done on my 69 ls build just want to say your going to love this motor power output is great and no matter how long you let the truck sit as long as the battery isn't dead it will start and run just like when you left it. The magic of efi I'll never go back to carbs. Think my next build will be a 4wd. Thanks for the inspiration. Again nice work I'm following this to the end.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
I like the brake light idea. I assume you used some LEDs?
I'm gonna need more info on that for sure. Just another subtle touch that really pushes your build over the top. Keep up all that hard work. Downhill you are headed Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Crash's 72 K10

![]() ![]() ![]() Still having a little trouble getting the cargo light to seal up right.. Anybody have any ideas? ![]() Rebuilt the window regulators… ![]() ![]() Installed the windshield sprayers .. ![]() ![]() Debating on installing the steps bars now, or waiting. I think I might go ahead and install the brackets and leave the bars off until after Kyle does the final pass on the paint. ![]()

Re: Crash's 72 K10
I say small piece of carpet. Is a bench seat going to be in there?
