Re: Mtn man k10 build

82 chevy k10, replaced the wore out 305 with a 350, got rid of the rust and dents, hot rod flat red paint, custom emblems, custom 15x11 rally's. Newest additions will be 52" light bar on top and a 4" rough country lift. She's my baby! She's the fifth square I've had and this is one I'll keep! My other toys are 64 c10, 82 c10, and 72 nova. Instagram people my name on there is mtn_man thanks!

Re: Mtn man k10 build

I had a fan like that on a car, will never use another. The metal ends flexed so much one broke off and went through the lower radiator hose. Left me stranded. Those fans flex like a beer can and will break in time.

Yes, I didn't really research it when I got it but I plan on putting my clutch fan back on sometime

It's a lmc hood, it's a pretty good hood. My other truck has a hardwood 4 inch fiberglass and I love it, if I could go back I would've got one of them for my red one

If you haven't already don't get the rough country lift. Instead get the tuff country lift. The tuff country rides better, flexes better and is more usefull off road then the rough country which imho is for mall crawlers who never see dirt. They ride terrible and don't flex at all.

Stepside bed and the updated grill make the truck really come together. I love the turbines!!
