It didn't block me.
Maybe it's some software you're running on your computer.

Re: Junk-Yard Shopping list

i ALWAYS look for wheels, specifically:
1) 71+ K10 6 lug wheels (60-66 guys buy em like crazy to have stock steelies for their disk brake swaps - hard to find)
2) mid-80's chevy 8 lug 3/4 ton wheels - 16.0" specifically. Due to the rarity of 16.5" tires for the original 16.5" rims on our 72's, so many folks have swapped over to 16" rims for wider tire selectiont that now even the 16" 3/4 ton wheels are scarce. Ford 16" 8 luggers are also a good deal.

Re: Junk-Yard Shopping list

*****Updated list pasted below********

1. Front ends to use for disc-brake swaps, years, models, what to snag.
Just go to lolife's thread; best ever...
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...68&postcount=4

2. Suspension
- sway bars from 73 up 2wd and 4wd GM trucks.

-sway bar from 84 chevy dually, mount frame to swaybar brackets (make sure to get these when get sway bar)

3. Steering Parts.
-chevy vans for tilt columns
--'73 through '78 truck and van variable ratio steering boxes (quicker steering)

-6 cylinder p-s from chevy cars/trucks.

-Power steering from 73-8? about $50 (get bracketts, check for worn outness)--out of other trucks


4. Transmissions (this might not be worth it)
-81-87 Chevy half tons and vans with manual tranny,many had the desirable A833/NP440/MY6 overdrive 4 speed tranny

5. Bench seat models and years--if different from the obvious.
-dodge buddy buckets can be easily adapted to our trucks.
-bucket seats from chevy lumina minivan, $40, sit at perfect height just drill some holes

6. Engines
-454 and trans from a '74 Caprice Classic 4-door

7. Cooling, i.e. electric fans.
-mid 80's Taurus electric fans

-Radiator Dimensions are the same as the Aluminum units in '89-'93 Chevy Trucks, not sure if the Flow is the same though.

8. Exterior parts
-GM van side marker lights.

-rear license plate buckets,73-87 trucks,73-91 blazers, will fit our trucks.

-headlight buckets in a 69 Caddy

9. Interior parts
-van AM/FM radios (not identical, but close).

- A-C controls from 65-66 impalas are same as our trucks

-early GM cars with metal e-brake handles that are chrome,screw on type.

-early GM cars with metal,chrome A-C balls same size as our trucks

-speedwarning buzzers from early GM cars can all be made to work on our trucks.

-camaro tachs

-Mid 80's S-10 Blazers for door weather stripping

-Dodge Dakota weather stripping for the doors

-1984 to 2001 Jeep Cherokee door stops--front doors better; back doors open far.

10. Ignition and electrical

-mid 70's 6 cyinder novas and, pull the electronic distrubutor AND external coils

- good bulkhead wiring connector assembly you come across for custom wiring harness


11. Rear Ends
-any chevrolet/GMC dana 44/10 bolt front differential will fit our trucks-60-87 on trucks and up to 91 on blazers and suburbans.

12. Odds-and ends

-72 caddy horns

-If you make a pickup bed trailer out of a 67-72, the 73-78 El Dorado rear straight axles work great.

13. Wheels

-71+ K10 6 lug wheels

-mid-80's chevy 8 lug 3/4 ton wheels - 16.0" specifically.
