just make sure the tranny stays full, other wise you can get parts for it at any king soopers. (just a metafor for you can find parts everywhere)

Haha :icon_twisted:

Actually I've got a hammer and dolly set I'm use to try and get the top portion out with. The bit on the very back might not come out that way, but oh well. Bought it for function not for looks :icon_thumby:

Now though, I feel like a real idiot. Cant find the hood release, haha. I know the hood comes up, the guy I bought it from had it up before. But for the life of me theres no hood release in the cab. Must be loosing what little eyesight I have left already :icon_rofl:

Seriously though, where the heck is that thing? haha

I have no clue where mine is, we just ripped the hood off since some idiot tried to steal it during the redneck gold rush and winched on the grill and rad support. Couldn't get the hood to release, so we just tore it off. Then junked it.

Went looking through various sites and I guess theres a release of some sort either behind the front bumper or the grille. No wonder I missed it, haha.

Sorry for the late reply yes my c-10 was lowered with a spring flip in rear and lowered spings and spindles in front. In the rear we were ready for the c-notch and I got a good offer on the rolling chassis so it is gone now.
