Re: Crash's 72 K10
I have worked on many many cars and trucks, all years and have never seen ujoints not indexed the same, just slid the slip yoke end off and back on so it lines up with the other end then it will balance better.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Nice work on the rust removal, man I hate the rust issues on these trucks and the repair panels aren't much help, you doing a great job. amazing how bad some of these parts (don't) fit. Later

Re: Crash's 72 K10
I just noticed in some of your new pictures that you posted....The cab you are repairing doesn't have a high transmission tunnel hump. Does the original cab? Hopefully youll get lucky and keep the low profile hump and not have clearnace issues. Less work that way...

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Nice work on the drivers side rust repair Mark. It looks to me you are a pro at this stuff already. It also looks like your floor pan fit pretty good. Not sure about the u-joint indexing? it makes sense to me that that should be indexed a certain way.
Keep it up! |

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Back to the rust.. Started the day with cutting and welding the new front pillar support. Be careful when cutting the old pillar. You can get into the plate that holds the nuts for the lower door hinge. I did but was able to fix the problem.
After that I started on the toe board. I cut the replacement from the old cab. Next up is the rust near the seat belt area. I will be cutting a replacement out of the old cab. Spot welded the floor pan to the toe board. Thanks for lending me the spot welder Mike... Starting to look better.. I still have a lot of weld to grind down and cleanup..I still need to fit the Driver Side Cab corner and both rockers. Hopefully I get the rust on the cab all repaired by the end of this month.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Didn’t do a whole lot today.. cleaned up the shop and started fitting the rocker and cab corner.
Next week I hope to start cutting out the rust above the windshield. Still need to cut out and install the high hump. Removed the u-joints and indexed the drive shafts. Still lots of work to do on the rust… Lots of grinding and sanding still to be done.

Re: Crash's 72 K10
The bolts that hold the high hump in, how are they mounted? do they have a nut or are they just screws that stick through to the under side? Sorry I have no 4x4 to reference for my build. Started with a 2wd and got a 4x4 long bed frame cut down to a short frame, so I am kinda building blind!

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Mark,
Where did you get the fuel hose that connects to your filter/regulator? A part number would be great if its not to much trouble... |

Re: Crash's 72 K10
Sorry for the dumb question...after closer inspection of your awsome pictures I relized you used a quick adapter and hose clamped the fuel line to them. I know it was months ago but still....GREAT JOB!! It looks so clean and wicked

I got it at o'reillys. I don't have a part number.. I asked for high pressure fuel injection fuel hose. I used regular fuel hose on the suction side of the pump. Hope this helps.
