Thanks so much! We appreciate you watching our stuff!

I use clean motor oil on them. It lasts a little longer than WD40 and will keep it from rusting. Thanks for tuning in. Jerry

Some fellers might call this one a "going to town rig" now! 🤣 Thanks for tuning in, Rick!

Have you watched Chevy’s latest advertising campaign for their new trucks? Not one word about towing capacity, pulling power, or durability. 100% of the 30 second TV spot regales the possibility of up to nine different cameras in it. I’m not opposed to customers having options and choices but try to buy a truck designed specifically for being a truck and you’re going to find it a daunting task and many times a more expensive vehicle than the dressed out vehicles. That’s where we are though so I guess that’s why I drive a 29 year old Chevy truck.

Thanks so much! We appreciate you watching our stuff! --Emily and Jerry

Hey Richard, this video should help you out. ua-cam.com/video/FDF76UCmB4c/v-deo.html Thanks for tuning in! --Emily and Jerry

I hate to argue with people, but 2 and a 1/2 thousandths is 25 ten thousandths .0025. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

Hello Jah. The crank would depend on its condition. If you have a good machine shop that would measure it up and give you their expert advice that would be nice. If there is any doubt, I would replace it. Replacing the crank will also mean having to have it balanced. You will definitely need a higher flow fuel pump with that turbo and bigger injectors. Will be a quick trailblazer for sure. Jerry

@@UglyTruckExperience oh I was asking about the fuel pump because I just put a brand new fuel pump in there and also had my transmission built, so right now I just need my engine rebuilt, both top and bottom and a turbo to add more power. but you’re saying if I upgrade my fuel injectors, I will definitely have to upgrade my fuel pump right away or can that wait till later down the line?

It would just depend on what the rate of flow of the fuel pump you installed. Would depend on how much you are going to put your foot into it. Wouldn't want to run a turbocharged motor to lean. You would probably want to ask the person that will be tuning it. Jerry

Glad to meet you, Thomas! And glad that truck went to a good home. We can't wait to see what you do with it. Keep us posted! --Emily and Jerry

@@UglyTruckExperience will do I can’t wait to get started on it it’s got fresh oil and I just ordered some no fowlers for it that should be in today or tomorrow and then I’ll get started on that hood and I got a new spark plugs coming in to and I might keep in repair the current bed that’s on it or get a new one and color match it white to the same as the truck. I’m gonna try to save the current bed that’s on it.

That's a bummer! 😞 Thanks for tuning in!

Thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying the videos! We actually just changed our merch store, so it's all higher quality and a little cheaper too. We appreciate your support! 👋 --Emily

The machine shop runs them through a washer and that is the extent of their cleaning unless we do more. They will check the heads and then resurface them for us if they check ok. The LS heads already flow great and you wouldn't really need to have them ported unless you are building a serious HP motor. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

@@UglyTruckExperience it’s so crazy I’ve been binge watching your videos from this morning and I’ve got a bunch of questions… but primarily I am rebuilding a 4.8L 2wd Silverado 1500 engine to swap into my Chevy Trailblazer (same year) I am going for a high HP application, I am rebuilding the bottom end of the engine as well as the top and I am adding a turbo… Which means I’m going with Double springs in my 702 heads and I will be gapping my piston rings, And I’m going with new pistons, ARP studs all around, i’m also going with an aggressive cam set up Brian Tooley truck Norris stage two, So my question is, should I change my crank (you know upgrade my 482 crank) or just have them polished…? again I’m asking because I am going for a high HP application at least 500+hp to the wheels. So do I need to change the crank to maybe a billet crank or will the 482 suffice? Again, I’m updating my cam and pushrods and adding a turbo….

Hi Augie! We didn't really use a "kit" on this truck. It originally had 4 wheel drum also, and we just installed spindles from a 72 C10. These are just stock replacement rotors and pads for a 72. The tie rods and center link are also different for a 72, but we made the 1970 tie rods work on this truck for now. It's a pretty common swap for these trucks, so there should be a ton of info out there. We need to do the same to our 68 C10, Frankenstein, and will have a video about it then. Hope this helps and thanks for watching! --Emily

@@UglyTruckExperience thank you very much for taking the time to reply. This is very good information and I am very very grateful .can I find a 72 spindle at o’Reillys? And did the center link and the tie rod from the 72 bolt on straight to your 70?

And yes, I would like to avoid buying a aftermarket kit, maybe I could save some money by installing just stock parts from a newer C 10

Hey Joey. Yes, send what you can. This is a link to the video that I was referring to. Jerry studio.ua-cam.com/users/videoUtX16_j0JlQ/edit

I think your getting the idea. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

Hello Marcio, It would probably be easier to fin a 6.0 to put in that car. Both of them are excellent engines though. The wiring will be the same for the most part and the ECM would need to have a tune installed for the 6.0 and whatever you have for a transmission and drivetrain. It would not be to involved to go with the 6.0. Either way you go, keep either engine with its stock heads and it will be much less headache. Let us know what you end up doing. Thanks for watching. We appreciate it. Jerry and Emily

Hello Fred. We hear that a lot. I honestly use my welder most of the time to get them out. The next time we have one that is broke off kind of deep, I think I will give the left hand bit a try. Thanks for watching and commenting. Jerry and Emily

Hey Jonathan. Sorry for such a late response. What you are describing doing, is exactly what we did with our 74 k10 swap. I used the donor pump from a 2002 Yukon. The fuel level sensor on that pump was different and at that time I just wanted to get it up and running. I would think the Hudson would have a separate fuel sender possibly, which would eliminate that issue. Thanks for watching. Let us know how it goes. Jerry and Emily

I bought that off of a Snap On truck back in the early 90,s, I have found them online. The one that I use has been used and abused and keeps on going. It is a great tool. Thanks. Jerry

Thanks Dale. We appreciate you watching and commenting. Jerry a Emily

Hello Krazy. Going from a V6 to that V8 would definitely have some different wiring. If not, as far as the transmission is concerned it might just be a matter of having it tuned for whatever the set up is that you have. I bet that 5.7 has a bit more power though. Jerry

Hey Jose. We did not on this one. The owner has no intention of ever lowering the truck. If I was lowering one, I definitely would. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

Thanks Heath. We will put your name on the list. We appreciate you watching. Your going to love that 70. We have been working on our 70 c10 today, getting ready for a trip. Thanks for watching. Jerry and Emily

Thanks Justin. It has worked great and is still holding up to the weather. Emily

@@UglyTruckExperience I did my truck two days ago, and uploaded a short it’s never look better in my ownership!!

This was a tough video to do with all of the talking that we had to do. It is not the easiest thing to stand in front of a camera and talk from the top of your head. We have gotten much better and hope you give us another shot. We do appreciate your comment even though. Thanks. Jerry and Emily

Thank you Imran. We appreciate you watching. Jerry and Emily

Thanks Jesus. That sounds like a great car for a LS. You will enjoy it. Jerry and Emily

Yes. Blue Loctite for sure. Jerry

@@UglyTruckExperience thanks. I made the mistake of not doing that so I just pulled it back apart to add some! Idk why it dawned on me but I’m glad it did.

Nice work. You will be glad that you did that extra work. It would have leaked oil for sure at some point. Jerry

We have done a couple duel tank set up videos. Here is a link to the latest that we did. studio.ua-cam.com/users/videoEd-4UaaArE0/edit

Thank you very much ​@@UglyTruckExperience

I clean it all up once everything is working the way we want. We end up making it as easy as possible for someone if they had to get in there and troubleshoot it. We just don't have time to show that on a video. Thanks for watching. We appreciate it. Jerry and Emily
