PART 2 C10 Dashboard and Custom Speaker Installation | 73-87 Chevrolet
Рет қаралды 305,161
Күн бұрынIn this short 2 part video series, I install a new dash pad for my 1977 Chevy c10 project truck. This dash pad was purchased from Classic Industries and fits 73-80 Chevrolet and GMC squarebody C10, C20 and C30 as well as the 4x4 K10, K20, K30, K5 Blazers, Jimmys and Suburbans. If you have a 81-87 (81-91 Blazers, Suburbans and 1 ton trucks) you will need a different dash pad. The installation is Nearly identical. I am also fabricating a custom speaker panel to replace the dash speakers with a pair of small 3.5" Sound Ordinance 2 way speakers.

A lot of vids dont show these small of details such as the addition of speed clips etc . My new dash actually started sticking out a little on the drivers side to where it started to touch the door when closed. I now know i need to put a clip and screw on it. I like your gauges too. Thanks for making this video.

nice work. I am adding to my truck collection a 1982 Chevy 1 ton Dually 4 x 4 which is a total rebuild , only 28,000 kmBeing a professional upholster, I just wanted to comment on one thing.. When drilling a new hole like you did, use a small flatpiece of sheet metal with a hole in it between the drill and the dash so In case you slip, you wont damage the surface of the dash. You can also use a flat piece sheet plastic with a hole in it.

I enjoy your videos. I inherited a 75 C10 Custom Deluxe from my parents estate, my dad bought it new in 1975 and it has been a true working truck. I want to restore it as I can afford and even thought the original color was green and white, I want to paint it blue with red and blue interior, so the dash install will be very helpful.

I just installed a brand new OEM dash pad - Mine doesn't look as smooth and tight as yours... Do you recommend uninstalling it and reinstalling? The thing cost about $400 LMC Truck Parts. I tried installing speakers after market - i think they are causing the issues....
@milkcrate82 9 жыл бұрын
Zachary Palmer It's possible that it's the speakers. If it's bowed up in the middle (under the speakers) then the speakers are the problem. I have a Part 1 of the dash install and I show how to recess the speakers.

I agree. I have a 1982 C10 Silverado, 305cid w/ Muncie 4 speed. Wouldn't have it any other way( except for the engine. when the 305 craps out im going to drop a 350 in it.)

Would you be willing to share the cost of your gauge set up and where you purchased it? Also your dash pad? Both are very nicely done! I'm restoring a 77 Blazer that I have a lot of time & work into (and $!!) and would love to duplicate your quality.

drivjc I don't have a video for removing the dash. I can tell you that it is the exact opposite of installation. Remove the gauge bezel, the screws along the bottom of the dash, and pull the dash pad straight backwards. It will come right out. Thanks for watching!

Did the holes your drilling disappear from the time you first disassembled the dash or did the factory forget to drill them? Been into my fair share of the trucks and have never had to drill anything when going back together with it! Bet by now you regret the choice of fasteners. New Dash Pad, custom cluster, what looks to be attention to detail in your electrical wiring and then a trip to the hardware store to finish it off. Step up your Finishing Game! Peace!

i watched the LMC install video also, they gave it a 2 on toughness (on a 1 simple - 5 very hard) scale. Im not to fancy in the mechanical department, but i have an 85 C10 that needs a dash in the worst way. Anyone know the difference (besides price) between the dash pad from LMC and Summit?
@milkcrate82 7 жыл бұрын
It's been awhile so I don't remember exactly, but I'm pretty sure I bought mine from Classic Industries. I haven't tried the ones from LMC or Summit. I have a strong feeling that the dash replacements are purchased from the same source. So if you buy from LMC, Brothers, Summit etc.... you might be buying the same part. However, be advised there is a difference between the replacement dashes and the dash covers. Dash covers are simple cloth or vinyl covers for you existing dash pad. Cheap fix. What I showed in this video is a dash replacement.

Bill Welch They are Auto Meter gauges that I ordered from Summit Racing. Are you looking for a lens for a factory gauge cluster or for aftermarket gauges? I know I've seen a new replacement lens for the original gauge cluster from LMC Truck. For aftermarket gauges, you'd probably have to contact the manufacturer. Thanks for watching!
