Buy the shop manual for your truck....along with "How to restore your Chevy Truck"

The shop manual is written in a pretty good form and is an easy read. A re-pop on the manual should be $20 or so. Check the parts suppliers for one.

Ask lots of questions here too. The amount of knowledge folks have on here is unreal.

And do not forget Keith Hardy's FREE On-line Chevy Manual Truck Project . I know this is part of the Publications link -- but in case you don't read all the way down.
