Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Got my "new" horse trailer home today. I had to borrow some wheels from my buddy to move it so it has no wheels at the moment again. So getting some wheels is on the top of the to do list. :lol:
She's a rough ole gal but I see potential and the price was right. The tongue is pretty short. I would think that it would be kind of squirrely but it's made it all these years so what do I know. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/gallery/...se_Trailer.jpg |

I'm not a big patina guy but I may not paint it. Just make it roadworthy and put some vintage looking wheels on it. It shouldn't be a big deal. (Famous last words). |

Finally fixed my camper trailer brakes I had replaced all 4 backing plates and rotors . New bearings and seals . But the brakes still weren’t working well they would slow the truck but not aggressively even set at the highest setting and manually activating the system . I had checked that there was power at the brakes when applied and the controller showed it was connected . So I had my grandson activate the brakes manually and I checked the voltage which I should have done from the start. At the highest gain I was getting a little over 8 volts at the brake . Checked the voltage at the truck plug and it was a little higher but not much . And right out of the controller I had 8.44 . The Tekonsha P2 in the truck is the older model and 13 years old . So I took the new the new P3 out of the 72 and I got 11.4 bolts at the trailer brake at full gain . I reset it to the normal setting and wow it brakes like new .
Not really sure why the controller would give low voltage it should work or not it’s completely electronic . The shoes have a little surface rust on them been sitting on the shelf in my garage for 27 or so years :lol: |

Well I finished up my log-lifter for my 3 point hitch. It turned out well. A coat of paint and it will look factory. I just hope it works.

Sure. But I prospect for old steel. ;) I have a friend that is big time into prospecting for gold and he's made some money doing it. Not a fortune but not bad. We have a little swap meet here on weekends and there's a guy selling prospecting equipment. Those conveyer belt things and stuff like that. I don't know what they're called. They've been there for a while. I may just have to hit him up on a price. Who knows. I might get enough gold to make myself a new tooth. :sexy: |
