Hey all,
I'm the new guy. I just bought a 69 C/10 4wd with a fairly good body. The engine and tranny works pretty well, but the transfer case leaves some to be desired. It's OK, but I think it's a little loose as it sometimes falls into 4wd. I do know it has no windshield wiper motor because I drove it over a hundred miles over the mountains from NC to VA where I live in the rain, barely being able to see...so if anyone wants to get rid of a wiper motor.....
This thing also had power brakes at one time, so I'm in the market for a master cylinder, booster, and associated neccesities. I'm waiting on my Chiltons bible etc to get mailed to me. I wanted to ask you guys a question..can you recomend any certain references? I need a parts interchange manual cause I know alot of the 73 and up stuff fits on these trucks, but I don't know which. I have heard that the 67-72 parts interchange manual is pretty worthless, in that it only mentions which parts are interchangable from within those years. Any other publications, ideas, thoughts?
I'm pretty new to this, just got a good job and could by a truck like this..I've always wanted one of these, never had the time or money. I have had some off road late model stuff (89 blazer, 97 ram) that I had lifted and ran into the ground repeatedly, but I'm really excited to get my 69. It has so much style and charachter. There is so much I want to do to it, it's crazy. Brakes and wipers first, then some rust spots.....I really want to do Tennman's gas tank swap too, get that thing out of the cab. Anyway, I'm really pumped to be a member and to talk to you guys, these boards are great. I look forward to talking to you guys.....I'm in Bristol TN/VA, by the way.
