new to me 1979 K10

Today at 10:21:15 AM by Robin | Views: 31 | Comments: 3

I just picked up this 79 K10 this weekend, the odometer reads 79,000 and from the looks of the truck I believe it's correct. The truck sat for quite a while and the frame is pretty badly rust out back but the body has very little rust or rot. I'll pull the bed and wire brush the frame. Needs rockers, tailgate is pretty bad, needs new springs (2" lift) and tires, keeping the same look.
This will be my daily driver, selling my 13 Tacoma to keep the wife happy. I restored 72 k20 for a sunny days.

Rear brake adjustor?

Today at 09:20:11 AM by pcdreams | Views: 38 | Comments: 3

I've got a 78 c20 with the full floating rear axle that you have to pull the axles out to take the rotor off. Well, my back brakes aren't working I've checked the hydraulics and know the pads/wheel cyliners/hoses are good because I replaced they last summer. This past week I replaced the Master and booster, no air in the lines. I thought maybe they were just out of adjustment but when I go to the backing plate there's no hole to adjust them. WTH? Anyway, that's why I'm here hope someone can help me out.

255/70/15 verses 30/9.5/15. Your opinion?????

March 18, 2019, 07:38:03 PM by Dave W | Views: 28 | Comments: 0

I have a 1978 2wd c10
Changing the puny 225/75/15's
Now using 15x8 rally wheels
Going for a beefy look (all terrain tires for almost a 4x4look)
I'm using 15x8 rally now
And I'm thinking of either
255/70/15 or 30/9.5/15
I don't want the front tires sticking out
Past the fenders.
And obviously need no rubbing.
Any insight is appreciated

1978 k10 308 rear differential

March 17, 2019, 02:42:04 PM by 2tone4by | Views: 42 | Comments: 2

I pulled cover to change oil and have notice a spring sticking out back there. I don’t know if it is supposed to be like that or what . Glove box tag say it a g-80. Can any one shoot me an image of the rear end with plate removed or a diagram of the thing taken apart thanks

P235/75/R15 tires on 15x8 rims Will they work on this wider rim???????

March 16, 2019, 04:05:11 PM by Dave W | Views: 63 | Comments: 2

1978 2wd C10
I found a nice deal on 15x8 rally wheels.
Also found some new Goodyear all terrain P235/75/R15 tires.
I know it's better to use the "LT" 235 instead of the "P"235
But 1st will they mount up on this wider rim?
and will there be any draw backs
Originally came with 15x6.5 rims 225/75/15
