What are you all doing to keep the plug for the fridge from vibrating loose?
Mine is supported and under no strain, but randomly wiggles loose and the fridge turns off.
I have a set of pretty mint jump seats out of my 1978. I need shoulder belts and front facing for my kids, so these are up for grabs.
Both have original foam, straps, springs, paint etc, and fully operational. Zero rust.
Asking $500 CDN + shipping.
More pictures on request.
PM me if...
Can someone with a '78 and up take a picture and a measurement of the height between the rear quarter and the rear bumper, as well as the side-to-side?
I need that height to weld the interior of the rear sill to the quarter, it sets the height of the whole tub.
I have a 1980 that isn't terrible but has some holes and some pock-marking that needs addressing as part of the rebuild.
I'd like to see people's pictures of what you've done, how you did it etc.
If you patched in new metal, did you maintain that 'curve'? I have no special metal working...
Was this pin bare metal from the factory? What are folks doing (if anything) on a refurb/resto truck?
I'm waffling between drilling the pin out and powder-coating it it, or just greasing the crap out of it.
Going to be cutting out the rear quarters for some new panel replacement on my 1980, question:
1) How do I cut around / remove the steel that surrounds the fuel filler? Any tips to being non-destructive?
2) Should I drain the fuel tank prior to cutting (I assume so)
Any advice or pictures?
Got a new to me 1979 that is need of some non-rotted metal. Surface rust is reasonable just not obliterated like mine currently are.
Need all doors and fenders. I'm in Calgary Alberta but would pay reasonable shipping from wherever.
Thanks.

I'm in the process of installing some component speakers that I've been sitting on for 10 years.
Yes there are literally hundreds of threads on stereo upgrades and speaker installs, but I'm undecided on where to put the crossovers as my driver's side kick panel is full (JDM) of relays and gak...
I'm wondering what everyone does to keep their fridge/freezer cord from getting tangled or pinched when on a slide.
I've previously wrecked a cord on one of my trucks, now I have it taped to a bungee cord, which is pretty jobber. I have a Dometic CFX-40 and an older style ARB...same problem...
So I'm getting an error code 41 from my O/D light, and I don't have torque converter lockup since my injection pump rebuild.
The Error Code 41 is: Throttle Position Sensor. I did the resistance test on it and it ohms out ok. The wiring harness seems ok, and I've already (foolishly) replaced...

ARB, Engel, Dometic, Waeco, Norcold, IndelB etc...I'm looking for a used fridge freezer for my other (non-LC) truck. Must be compressor style, in decent shape.
Ideally 35L-50L, obviously one that works well all the way down to freezing...and I'm in Canada (Calgary Alberta).
So, anyone in...
Two question:
1) Is the ECU for this transmission (https://goo.gl/photos/oWu8Za8tR1uvjh2b6) the only thing that engages the torque converter lockup, or is there some other kind of early 90's computer wizardry?
2) How do I know if the torque converter is slipping when locked? RPM's higher than...
I have a lockup torque converter switch from my 1993 HDJ81 for sale. I installed it when I towed a trailer with the cruiser, now I have a one ton Dodge to tow the new BIGGER trailer so I removed it from the 80.
Basically when your truck drops out of overdrive when towing up a hill and your...
I've googled and can't find anything, is there a vendor that sells a winterfront for the 80?
Example for those in warmer climates:

My 81 gets chilly sucking in all that cold air, and the cardboard trick gets old.
Is there any quick attach/detach hardware for a fridge or could be adapted (like from McMaster Carr or something?) that is an alternative to the Engel Transit Slide lock? $80-$100 for basically 4x latches on a board seems excessive.
