    Needing some paint advice

    That could be an option. I don't have an air compressor the size it would take. What size did you use?

    Needing some paint advice

    I have the ubiquitous white peeling paint. It's got to the point where I need to do something. I've got several surface rust spots on the roof, hood, and bed rails. As well as peeling paint down the side of the drivers door and a couple of other places. I can't see paying $5000-$6000 paint job...

    Another peeling paint question

    I have a couple of these spots in various places(fender, door) on my truck. What's the best way to deal with these spots? My truck needs a respray, so starting to work on some of the prep work. Any paint prep(for respray) tips would be appreciated as well. TIA - Micah

    Por-15 on frame question

    @Drunkcanuk Just now getting the time to work on it, but here are a few pictures. This was taken right after the second coat. Heed the warnings about this stuff sticking to everything. Got some on my hands, looks like I will have por15 on my hands for a few weeks. Otherwise, went on well. I used...

    Por-15 on frame question

    I’m cleaning up the inside of my frame. Does this look descaled enough to put por-15 on. I still need to clean and prep.

    Pre-Bent Brake Lines

    Kind of off topic a bit. The line that runs to the rear along the driver side frame, does the gas tank need to come down to replace?

    Pre-Bent Brake Lines

    I'm not sure. Was trying to avoid buying a bunch of tools that I might not need again and hopefully saving some time with not having to bend.

    Pre-Bent Brake Lines

    I know LMC makes a kit, but is there an alternative? LMC's kit is a bit pricey.

    Por15 on surface rust on roof

    @kennythewelder, thanks for the response. You wouldn't recommend using any of the rust to primer converters?

    Por15 on surface rust on roof

    I've got some surface rust in a couple of areas on the cab roof. Could I use a por15 type product? If not, what do y'all recommend outside of a respray?

    Peeling paint advice

    Can anyone offer advice on the best way to prime this? The hood is pretty much half peeled off, and the top of the doors and roof are getting there as well. I plan on painting in the next year, but need to keep these areas from rusting. I know nothing about paint/body repair; so talk to me like...

    White peeling paint question

    I know this is a common issue, and I've done some research. Needing some more experienced thoughts. My peeling is occurring on the hood and roof only, no peeling on the sides. I'm wanting to repaint, and was looking at doing most of the prep work myself to help cut down on the cost. My thought...

    Spyder headlamps.....my take on 'em...and LIGHTING in general

    Thanks for the replys gents. Trying to educate myself, I'll have to set aside some time and read through the entire thread. BTW, this should be a sticky, if it's not.

    Spyder headlamps.....my take on 'em...and LIGHTING in general

    Question, about LED's. I've read the majority of this thread(not all, pretty long). Is the problem running LED's the lights themselves(quality?), or the headlight assemblies for these trucks aren't meant for LED's?

    Factory Trailer Brakes?

    I've searched the site and googled, but have not come across an answer to this. Did the 89-94 c/k1500 come with a factory trailer brake option? My specific application is a 94 k1500. I apologize in advance if this has been covered. If it has, feel free to comment to the thread. If the trucks...
