Please add me, thank you

Hello Im in thanks

Did you ever figure out what the resolution is? I have this same problem with surging.

I agree, driving skills are more important than 4WD. I grew up driving a 4Cyl RWD Manual S10 in Michigan. That truck was horrible in the winter, but loads of fun. I understand rust will win the battle, I just want to prolong the battle. My goals are simple. I want to drive this truck daily...

I have been told repeatedly not to drive this truck in the winter, but that was my primary intention. I want something robust enough to handle it and provide many years of use. If I rust proof, undercoat, and monitor the rust, do you think I can meet my goals? Is there anybody you know that does...

That's actually the main reason why I decided to get this truck. I wanted something simple and bare bones. At this point I do not feel confident enough to perform my own work, but in the future as I learn more I will take advantage.

Great I look forward to it. Right now my priority is the Powertrain and Chassis. I really want to make sure I have this truck ready for the winter. I am more than willing to do whatever I can to reduce rust. I definitely intend on knowing as much as I can about this truck. I want this to last...

If I glue the patch panels in place then will the rust hole get bigger eventually? How long will the glue hold? My plan is to repaint the truck, do you think I should repair any holes beforehand?

Awesome. I thought it was as straight forward as that. I think the hard part is finding the reliable body shop. Thanks

I finally got around to taking some pictures. Please don't mind the stupid bush. The rust hole is on the driver side between the lower cab and bed. Does anyone think this hole is repairable? Thanks

Where are you in your pictures? Its looks like there are mass quantities of cucv's waiting for restoration.

Awesome I may contract you for a paint job sometime down the road. Do you drive in the winter? How do you prevent rust from accumulating? I took your advice and I appreciate it. I have noticed my truck starts quicker when I hold the pedal down, but I am afraid the Starter will burn out soon. I...

I will look into doing some rust proofing and undercoating. I would like to repaint the entire truck. Do Paint Shops offer rust preventive primer and paint? This truck does not have a lot of damage from rust. I have found one spot between the bed and cab that will become a problem. Would a...

I understand what you mean and I fully agree. My intention is to drive this in the winter and take all precautions necessary to prolong it's life. I cannot own something and not use it. Do you think that reading the technical manuals would be beneficial or are they primarily for...

I just moved from Franklin, TN to Ferndale, MI. I loved Nashville, but I had to move for work. I helped launch the 2017 GMC Acadia and Cadillac XT5 down in Spring Hill. That project is over and now I am moving onto something new. I most definitely will start shopping for my go to diesel shop...
