Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
More progress on the 10 bolt, inner seals and pinion seal. The inner seals were not as much trouble as I thought they were going to be, and I'm glad I replaced them.

More 10 bolt work, but it's in the truck now! I spent my morning swapping tires and grabbing some lug nuts and studs from the wrecking yard!

Nice work as always. Can you get a grizzly locker for your birthday?

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Slow progress, but did manage to get the 14 bolt pinion seal replaced and the pinion housing sealed up. I broke a bolt for the pinion housing, but it didn't give me too much of an issue.

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
This poor old truck has been sitting around feeling neglected. Figured I would take her for a spin, set the fuel gauge (that will someday be mounted in the cluster) and hit a quick trail. Pics and a video.

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Nice. Good to see it out cruising. That's a fancy gauge.

I really appreciate the footage you shot on that trail ride. I am a Louisiana guy, never been out west.

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Dave,
Love the truck and your videos. It took me two complete evenings to go through them all but I enjoyed every one of them. I started to watch one of them without the headphones this evening but quickly had to plug them back in. Love the sound effects and the editing.

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Love the off-roading video Dave! Beautiful scenery and the cave was really cool!! I wonder if anybody was ever ambushed from that cave bad in the old west days!

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Looking good! Fun trail ride. I like how you get your hood to pop up. I use the same technique.

Re: 84 K10 Custom Deluxe 5.3 build
Wheelin video from last night in Nelson, NV. The K10 did awesome even with open diffs, I was diggin the extra wheelbase and slightly lower gear ratio of the 4:11's. It idled up most everything with ease.
