My 1990 C1500 SWB Build - Daily Driver

Well, figured out why my clutch won't disengage.

The Clutch kit I ordered, was shipped with the wrong clutch disk. Causing the clutch disk to intersect the pressure plate and not allow it to free-spin when the clutch is pushed.

In other news, since it's time to pull the trans and switch the clutch out, I figured I should unbox and paint the dirty-dingo tubular trans crossmember I bought a few months ago. It'll replace the factory trans crossmember.

I like that x-member.

Bummer deal on the clutch disk...

+1 on that crossmember. I welded my own, and I wish it tucked up like that one.

Picked up some parts yesterday, now we're back to a 100% stock interior.

Still need to wipe some stuff down, shampoo the seat and do some general interior cleaning.

I also received the replacement clutch kit, it seems the clutch disk is a bit smaller and clears the pressure plate, 360*. I'll get that thrown in next weekend.

Still one of my favorite GM steering wheels.

Yup, gotta be a member of the Red Line Club, but it's only $10 to join and really fast too.
This truck looks like it lives up to the hype; Lamley Group on YouTube did a video on it last night.

I'll tell you, i'm guilty of spending the $9.99 to join the club this morning.

Now we await 11am.

I started a new thread on this little truck, so as not to further derail all the threads I've talked about it on! See "the lounge".....

Caltrac bars reinstalled and fully adjusted, first time they've been on the truck since it left my possession in late 2020.
