Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Went to replace the rear brake hose, crimped the snot out of the hard line(front to back) instead, so I started unbuttoning that line and making a new one.

The Jimmy needs new seats badly. The ones the PO put in are out of a Firebird/Camaro car from thre mid-80s. The foam was molded around the springs, and it's shot. Sharp pokey things pop up into one's posterior. And at the rear, the brackets are lag-bolted into 4''x 4'' blocks of wood. A head on collision will be fatal. It's the '67 Suburban, I'm thinking of Buddy Buckets in. Shotgun rider could ''lay aft'' and check on the load, [or retrieve a cold one] from the back while underway. Current stock '67 vintage bench seat is OK. Would be great after reupholstering. Just kidding. Keep your seats. You found them. You build them. Only fair. |

This should work , :chevy:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/334152900903 Use an adhesion promotor like this , a few light coats goes a long way . https://www.amazon.com/Bulldog-Adhes...a-571859709017 |

Made a little progress on the seats I'm rebuilding. Reassembled the driver seat frame. Cleaned and painted the springs.

Rerouted my fuel hardlines to behind the crossmember, to free up space for future exhaust work. And mocked up the ac/heater hose routing for the Vintage Air install

Glad I kept the 16 inch adapters . I just need to get two more PO1 caps the set I had were for 4 wheel drive so they have a big hole in two them . Always find a set at Carlisle truck show. I’m going to get new tires on the original 17 inch rims but these came off my 72 tires have about 5k on them .

Assembled one of my seats last night. Glued the cover onto the foam so that it would follow the contours. These seats have no listing wires in the foam.
