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!

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.

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.

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.
