No problem buddy. If you pull the tank you can go ahead and install a new sending unit and lines. That would ensure extended life of the vehicle which already 15_20 years past its lifespan from factory.

I'd also change the fuel filter, you already did the lift pump I'm 99%sure so I doubt that's it, the pump could be going out. Any smoke from the exhaust? Also if you will clean your oil cap and cdr you will get less oil and crap in the intake. That's how it was with my truck anyway. So I would...

There are actually regular artist that do that kind of work. I've seen some beautiful stuff that is basically graffiti but was actually done legally. You will just have to check around in your area and find somebody

I'd definitely change the pump since you are already in there that far. So it made a racket when the oil and water started to mix? Good job so far, .

It's all just good clean fun.

You never know when the haunted forklift (The Demon Lift the killer of crossmembers) might run through your shop. Lol. I thought you might think I was BSing if I said that it must have been molested by a het or 10 ton dump truck.

Looks to me like it was slotted with a cutting torch. Maybe the factory one was trashed and someone changed with a junk yard one that needed some massaging to fit. That might be the factor one and some took it off to work on the truck and it got ran over with a forklift or something and the just...

Thanks That would be bad. She could hurt me worse than him. I hope Rick takes these pics well.

I'm a a phone, the screen is like 2in by 4in

Ok. From that angle and on my phone screen the brown kind of looked like a chicken. I'm glad I didn't go around telling people that you keep chickens in your truck. Thanks for clearing out up. Also I didn't think you were that old. (Experienced) Does she like the trucks?

What is on the side of blazer in the first picture ? Is that a chicken? 450 for front to back Mufflers and all really isn't that bad. (I know I know)

Ok. I guess the guy doesn't want to make some new memories in an old truck. I really like this good ol budget build.

That's cool you found a PO of the truck. Maybe he will buy it when you are done with it.

Not to hijack your thread but I saw this and thought it might be of some use. http://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?72537-CUCV-Rocker-panel-no-welding-install&p=1776571#post1776571 Remove if you feel necessary.

Me and dad where talking about this thread (he isn't a member) and he thought that they might be putting on cats is why the job cost so much. We thought that since they have inspection up there cats might be required or something. That's all

Bored ? NO!!!!! I like the build. Did they put catalytic converters in the exhaust?

Ok, so the pipes stopped somewhere under the driver seat or just behind. I cut mine there when I got it, they are loud that way and have a raspy sound, but withe full pipes I like it, it doesn't seem any louder than my dad's 454 with duals and some no name Mufflers that don't muffle much. But I...

Did you drive it with a full exhaust front to back just with no Mufflers? Or just the headers?

Hope this doesn't count as a hijack, if so remove post. How does a H or X pipe help the engine? Just asking.

I have straight 2.5 in true duals with 20in long 4in diameter tips. It has not had any adverse effects so far. The truck did have like 1.5 in duels with super restricive Mufflers, it is now a bit peppier and nice sound. It should work the same but who knows, at 1500 its has some POP...
