back in the fall started on my truck and removed the rear welded spider gears put new ones in from summit racing. Removed the old worn out tires and put on 255 85 r16 elderado trailcutter tires from simpletire.com. This past week I decided to do away with the factory one piece lights and I ordered new led tailights and new headlight housings for upgraded headlights, ordered new heavy duty light harness and new hood insulation the old was falling apart. Got it all from lmc truck and hope to put in this week or next.

Re: 86 k10

Took the np203 out this weekend and got the new gaskets and gasket maker on the adaptor plate. Got the new headlights hooked up from lmc , the new led tailights were screwing everything up so took them back out, but at least put on the new talight covers . Got to take it to Walmart with it shifting and driving nice. Some jerk pulled out of the Walmart turning lane last second had to whip the truck into the other lane last second so didn't wreck the truck, dang K10 can handle for a big girl

With the new headlights , removed the paint on the grille center strip and got chrome, and repainted the faded grille and headlight surrounds. All this after I got her home this Sunday.
