    Thank you! I have been searching all over, trying to find out that one thing, no one else showed (3:05-08), were you threaded the string through that little opening. Very good instruction and camera work. Thanks again, as you sure were a great help!

    Thanks for mentioning the year of the truck in the description. The first video I watched failed to mention it anywhere so I didn't know if his configuration was going to match mine. Your 1984 is going to match my 1981 C10, so I guess I'm going to have to pull the radio after all - didn't think I'd have to. Thanks for the video.

    I just spent 20 minutes trying to figure this out. smfh Didn't realize the cable went around that screw bezel and then down to the shift collar. Thank you, sir!

      My new one does that. I'm thinking I need to smooth it over with some sandpaper because it gets stuck.

    I was following your vid but my shift indicator bracket doesn’t have that bottom circle piece so there is no way to keep the cable falling out. I can’t find that replacement part anywhere. Any suggestions?

    • @BurnoutsAndRotorblades
      @BurnoutsAndRotorblades  3 года назад

      Maybe a screw could be used there instead, or glue something in place there to guide the cable. It's part of the gauge bezel if I remember right. So, I don't assume they are sold separately.

    91 crew cab had the 4 speed selector indicator since they were the only year you could get a 1 ton square with a 4 speed auto. On a different note can you put a 4 speed gear selector indicator into a 73-81? Or are the screw holes for the indicators in different spots between 73-81 and 82-91?

    • @BurnoutsAndRotorblades
      @BurnoutsAndRotorblades  Год назад

      They just print a different pattern on the same piece. That's why it's important to order the correct one for your transmission.

    • @SOU6900
      @SOU6900 Год назад

      @BurnoutsAndRotorblades Well that also answers another question I had bouncing around in my head involving a 4 speed auto swap into the 73-81 squares then. Also how good is that Gear Vendor unit you got in this rig? I can't help but see the controller mounted to the underside of the dash.

    • @BurnoutsAndRotorblades

      It makes 70mph on the highway with a big block possible. However. . . . I'm thinking for the same money and a little more work the swap to a 6l80E would be the way to go. I'm honestly thinking about doing the swap to make this ride a little more highway friendly.

      @@BurnoutsAndRotorblades I'm considering getting the GV for my 85 C30 crew cab dually to help the mileage whenever I finally get her on the road if the rot doesn't get her first. Like you're saying though I'm wondering if it would be just as much if not cheaper for me to swap in a 4L80E. Assuming the claims are true I'm not looking forward to the 8 or 8.5 mpg from a heavy crew cab dually with a 454 and 4.10 gears on stock size tires without an OD. Honestly I feel like the GV route would be easier since I shouldn't have to move the transmission cross member back and drill the frame for new bolt holes, but at the same time I'd get the mileage benefit of a lockup converter on top of overdrive if I went the 4L80 route.

    • @SOU6900
      @SOU6900 Год назад

      The $3000 price tag alone is why I've actually taken time every now and again to look for a used GV unit with the proper TH400 adapter and all the other stuff that goes with it.

    Got a similiar problem on my 89 OBS. Can somebody tell me the name of this plastic tube or bowl at the steering column where the cable is connected to? Or maybe the GM partsnumber (89 c1500). Cant find it on Rockauto. I would really appreciate some tips! Thanks in advance.

      The metal clip that attaches the cable to the steering column can be slid to align the shift indicator needle with the gear the transmission is in.
