Post good threads.
I'd like to break it up into at least six broad topics;

• Electrical
• Interior
• Exterior body
• Brakes-steering-suspension
• Driveline
• Wheels & Tires

driveline: Transfer Case rub through, Transfer Case slip joint clunking.

interior: A/C selector motor replacement, A/C drain plug removal/opening, dash and a/c light bulb replacement/solder, instrument panel motor replacement, tow select replacement, Automatic column shift handle spring replacement.

Exterior: Hood/Grill exchange for other years.

Engine: oil cooler line leak/replacement


to start with...

This is a rough outline not a refined finished product.

I'm looking for threads from this forum to fill this. I've started looking through the posts in this forum starting with the oldest.

If you have additional topics that's great but we need threads to go with them.

Good thought process into the overview/outline. Looks great.

One area that I am working on is Rustproofing ... many of these old trucks would benefit from such a treatment. .

The truck I just purchased came form SC so it hasn't encountered no salt and snow thus ... it doesn't have the typical GM Rust.

I looked at Zierbart, Fluid Fill, and WoolWax.

I am going with WoolWax - will get my truck treated in a couple weeks.
