Posted a few weeks ago about a bench seat, finally got everything worked out. This is the kit from LMC, with new bottom and back foam. It's a real pain to get this together. I assume if you reuse foam it's a hell of a lot easier! Plus, the new foam is so much firmer...the steering wheel about hits the belt buckle now. hoping it breaks in soon
And yes, the daily is a bronco. square body on the weekends, sue me!
I replaced the wire running down to a small terminal on the starter of my 1975 Chevy K10 with regular household 10 gauge copper wire. I believe it’s stranded, but I need to double check. I don’t know the insulation rating.
It’s inside a heat resistant sleeve and isn’t touching the engine block. The truck has been starting totally fine so far, it’s been about a month and a half now since I replaced it and I daily drive this truck.
Is this acceptable long term if properly routed and secured, or should I replace it with automotive wire?
I take this truck into remote woods and want to avoid getting stranded. My mechanic has been unreliable so I’m trying to figure out whether this needs immediate attention or is something I can replace myself when convenient. Looking for input from mechanics or anyone familiar with these older GM trucks. Thanks!
