    The AC system works great. It was an easy install (Classic Air was great to work with) but needed help with the two relays for the e-fans to come on by water temp and when I turn on the AC. I did not paint the truck. I did help strip it down to bar metal. My friend painted it...3 coats of...

    It has been awhile since my last post on the 89 GMC. I have been researching spray on bedliners; LineX, Rino, and finally decided to go with the Vortex product. See pics below.

    2 quarts and 2 rattle cans of POR 15. Next step is to Line-X the bed with a clear cost to avoid turning gray and dull.

    Does anyone know where I could find "CLEAR" one piece front side markers to replace the stock "AMBER" ones? I have seen them on only one truck and have been searching for 5 months.

    Correct...POR-15. This is a great product. I hand painted most of the areas and used spray in hard to reach areas. Also installed the B&M Trans Cooler and will be installing the Powerstop Extreme Rotors, Calibers, and pads to try to improve the poor braking. I am trying to avoid the...

    I spend a lot of time looking for a 3 ROW Aluminum radiator that has both engine and transmission coolers. I also I install a secondary B&M transmission cooler in front of the new AC condenser. The fan controller is operated by engine temperature or when the AC compressor comes one. I am very...
