    Question about factory interior colors

    I guess I'm gonna update this just because, I went with the charcoal color, also getting the headliner redone in about the same color. I still can't figure out the paint code for the trim. It's a dark gray. I purchased both the light and dark gray colorbond paints from LMC and the light gray is...

    Overhead console swap into 93 RCSB ?

    Did you ever pull your headliner down to have a look? I've also been looking to add some kind of overhead console.

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Yeah and I feel like if I were to paint them as they are it would just be a shiny crappy looking wheel

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Any tips on doing that without dismounting the tires? Idk if the stripper would be safe on the tires or hitting the tire with the wand would do any damage. It's only a 2800 psi unit and I'd probably use a 25 degree nozzle

    How to spruce up these old rims

    Just wondering what some of you might do. These wheels look pretty disgusting. You can actually feel texture of all the crud on them, how should I go about this? Take them to someone to refinish Just give em a coat of paint Take a wire wheel to them first before painting(seems like a bad idea)...

    Question about factory interior colors

    Anyone recommend the mass backing or any of the other things the carpet companies offer? I have my own foil backed dynamat and closed cell foam, would the mass backing be better?

    Question about factory interior colors

    I only have the book that every truck came with from the factory, the little information book. I looked through it to no avail..but it looks like a may just go with charcoal anyways. Idk how I'd feel about the blue carpet and gray everything else anyways haha.

    Question about factory interior colors

    Yeah the picture makes it look dark gray but it's actually like a blue color. Maybe I will just go with the charcoal after all.

    Question about factory interior colors

    Hey there so I've decided give some new life to the interior of my 1990 standard cab. My question is what is the factory color of this carpet? I've done a Ron of research and read countless threads but in still not much closer. This all started because I had to remove basically remove the...

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Just wanted to update all you fine folks that helped me in this post. Drove the truck for about 10 minutes to get the ezhaust heated up a little. Got the old o2 sensor out easily and got the threads in the manifold cleaned up with the o2 sensor thread chaser. No more exhaust leak it's beautiful...

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Yeah I'm nervous about that and after my previous experiences with this truck..its what I expect. But I don't really see any other options. Gonna let the truck warm up for a few minutes first aswell.

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Well I guess I'm just gonna crank on it with my 1/2 breaker bar with a fence post over it..that should remove what's left of the o2 sensor hopefully. I can spray the pb blaster into that hole, not sure if that would be any more effective. As far as replacing the broken bolts that'll be...

    Bam and you're right again, grabbed a 1/4-28 nut from Ace and it's a perfect fit until I find a wing nut, thanks again!

    Will do, thanks! Also I did find that tap, they've got it at the parts store and it's specifically called an 7/8" o2 thread chaser.

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Thanks I don't have one of those in my kit but I'll try to locate one. Since you know this..do you happen to know which wing nut I need for the air cleaner? Mine fell into the yard and is gone forever.

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    I guess i will tackle this in the next couple days after letting it soak for a while. I don't suppose you know th pitch of this bung do you? I purchased a 1/2-14 npt(or whatever it was) for the heater hose at the back of the intake manifold since mine broke off..it wouldn't happen to be the same...

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    As a side question, my wing nut for the air cleaner fell off the truck and into the leaves in the yard and was never found..im sure my lawnmower will find it in the spring..but was size or thread pitch am I looking for in replacement? I've been unable to find this info, although I did see...

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    I will look into these manifold clamp kits, if not I'll leave it until it becomes a problem. Do these just break off on their own sometimes? I don't believe they've ever been messed with.

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    Gave you pictures to ensure all the vacuum is hooked up correctly..but check out the very last picture..is that the bung for the oxygen sensor?? Also there's quite a large gap at that flange..perhaps it's normal

    Exhaust leak after replacing Intake Manifold gaskets

    I believe I forgot to reply to this comment. The water neck bolt broke off when replacing he thermostat. Ending up putting a junkyard manifold on. After getting it all back together there's a pretty loud exhaust leak around the engine bay that was no there before. The passenger side exhaust...
