I did a quick search and didn't immediately see anything specific to this so here goes...
When installing the lower column steering bushing and bearing, is it best to; (1) do the white plastic bushing and then press the bearing in or (2) press the bearing into the bushing and then assemble to the the lower column shaft?

Come get them!!

I'm trying to find a home for 3 of my trucks, I am not looking to sell any of them simply looking for someone who may want to come get them. If you or anyone on the site you know migh want them I will help load them. They all 3 have clean titles. I haven't looked at them in person since December of 2023 so they are surely just as in need of repair as before.
> 1) 1987 Sierra R10 LWB, no engine or trans, 10 bolt 3:73 with Detroit Trutrac
> 2) 1983 K20 LWB, 350, SM465, NP205 Holley 650(I think Holley)
> 3) 1984 CUCV blazer, 6.2 Detroit, no trans or transfer case
> I do have a few extra NP205's and sm465 but idk if I can freely part with them rn
> If you or anyone you know that won't scrap them is willing to pick them up I'm in St Mary's, Ga
This is a link to photos I have of these 3 trucks.

TV bracket for Dualjet carbs?

I havent been able to find a straight answer

I have a Dualjet on my 81 305. I am planning on swapping to a 700R4, but looks like all the TV brackets are for a Quadrajet, and the pictures dont really help if they will fit my dualjet, complicating the issue is the vacuum port on the back of my Dualjet for the brake booster.

Thanks

Gas gauge issues

June 21, 2026, 01:37:20 pm by JohnnyPopper

'88 R30 Dual tank. Pollak valve.

Gauge will intermittently read the fuel level, and then go dead. While alive, it correctly reads the level of each tank, and switch the valve.

I have determined that the valve works without the gauge being operational. I think that rules out the switch.

I have cleaned the connection at the valve with DeoxIt.

Any thoughts on where the gremlin lives?
