    Making adapter plates

    I have a set of Rainbow components I'm looking at putting in another car but I need to make adapter plates to fit the stock 6x9 location. Is it ok to use something like 1/4" masonite/hardboard?

    Dipstick (fill) Tube

    Recently we have had a real cold snap it is -9 today with a -25 wind chill. I have noticed that there is a strange problem recently. When the engine is still cold it seems to be slipping. From a stop I step on the gas and it will sometimes rev to about 1500 then slam into gear. Other times it...

    Door/fender alignment

    Since I got my truck it has been like this. Looking at the hinges there doesn't seem to be an adjustment that would bring the door out to match the fender. The truck has never been wrecked that I can tell or was told about. Maybe the fender was removed and never put back on right. The second pic...
