Hello to all , I purchased a GMC K 2500 with what I thought would be an easy fix , a bad flex plate . That was the easily part , curing all the other ills of this truck has turned into a nightmare . Fuel system cobbled and hacked together , the wrong o-ring under the sending unit , an engine knock on #8 cylinder , leaking engine oil cooler lines , missing locking hub on the passenger side , and a hacked up air conditioning system which I am deleting from the truck . But all in all the truck is in good shape and would have been a shame to allow it to go to the crusher .
A little about myself , I must be a glutton for punishment as I restore and rehabilitate old engines , farm equipment , garden tractors , and fabricate my own equipment . My current project is a 1956 John Deere 420-C , (crawler) here is a link to one of my threads on it .

Most of what has been done on it is in this thread . I have built too many pieces of equipment to be listed here also .
I work as a Steamfitter to support my hobbies .
Thanks to davo727 for sending me here .
