1991 crewcabbie
Went and bought this from the ex bro in law.
1991 r3500 swapped to 5 lug with 1/2 spindles and a 10 bolt. No real plans for it yet. Now I have a first and last year square... now I'll have to find a '88 to go with my 99 crewcab.

Re: 1991 crewcabbie
TBI questions, this truck sat for a year or so. Went to start it and fuel was dripping from the injectors. No start- unplugged both injectors then plugged them back in, and fired up like it should.

Re: 1991 crewcabbie
No answer to your question, but I sure do like the looks of your SRW crew cab. I had a nice, low mileage '74 454/TH400 for awhile when I lived in Cali. Bought it from the original owner. My plan was to static drop it and put in a gear vendors overdrive. I sold it (and a whole bunch of other projects) when I made the decision to move to Texas. Still regret getting rid of that truck.

Re: 1991 crewcabbie
Could start with re-sealing the TBI unit, you can buy a kit that comes with all the seals and gaskets, very simple to do, I think it took me 45 mins total on my Caprice wagon. If that doesn't work might need new injectors

Re: 1991 crewcabbie
Glad I remembered what this rear end came from, the park cable was seized up applied.
Drum brakes are still lame.. rube goldberg would be proud. And got the plate tucked in the bumper
