Took six boxes of guck to the household hazardous waste roundup this morning. Just about rid of all the old paint and such from my FiL's garage. We had to clean it out when we rented the place. Paint marked "10-04"; my, what a fine can of crud. About 4 gallons of quart cans, and a whole bunch of spray paint cans that don't spray. Also finally got rid of the last three gallons of "syrup" from the saddle tanks on my truck. Been putting it off; it's just been sitting there in the can for about 2 years. It was crap when I drained it! :lol: Just got busy...

Towed new project with Tiny truck daily driver :metal:

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Does the after market comfort grip feel flimsey like the aftermarket truck wheels? If not I want one because it looks great.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Feels very much like the original factory wood grain two spoke sport wheel on my Chevelle. I like it

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

That's great, now I need two. One for the truck and one for the El Camino. ...

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Changed up my wheel last night

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

I finally got off my duff and stated getting the 68 ready for the trip to the Nats next weekend. Changed the oil&filter,installed a new speedo cable and took some play out of the shifter linkage.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Hopefully finished the last major job in the engine bay for a while, swapped out the old quadrajet for an Edlebrock AVS2. Can't see it in the picture, but the new air cleaner looks nice anyways haha. Pic of the engine when I first got it included for reference.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Installed a new fuel pump.... My truck started missing and stumbling amd backfiring at 50/60 mph.. A good buddy suggested it could be the fuel pump. I always thought a fuel pump worked or didn't work but i now know that isnt always the case. The truck has 89000 miles and I think it still had the original fuel pump so today I had a new one installed and it cured the stumbling/missing and the truck is more responsive.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Setting up the new radiator and fans. Finishing up and installing tomorrow.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Impractical but cool none the less. Propane and competition bbq won't work. Thats a grill not a smoker

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Started the LQ4 swap!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Turn the cab into a rotisserie smoker.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Nice! "Fire under the hood" not necessarily a bad thing.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Not unless it takes out the truck. I just found this in mine. It's fuse protected so I'm ok. Melted the loom, electrical tape, and part of the wire shielding but not through.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Oh boy, you just got my attention. I have some questions. First, what brand of brake rotors did you use? Second, what brand of tie rod adjusters are on your truck? And last but not least, what are your plans for the stock parts you took off? If you would like to part with those stock spindles, let me know.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Packed the rotor bearings. Fixed the tailgate rattle a few days ago. Cost a wapping 4$ have enough to do probably 100 gates. I used white grease on the trunion works great

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Rotors are Stop Tech~~Tie rod adjusters are Western Chassis~~Moog and Mevotech for the rest of it~~Keeping all the take offs for the time being~~~~~

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

So you just stretched a bike tire slice to fit around? It still fits in the hole? And it doesn't scrunch up when you move it?

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Yup just a little donut of the tube.
Works like a charm . White grease it well .

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

That's cool. At least I got some good product photos for the rotors & tie rod adjusters. Thanks for the info.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Got the power steering box and linkage installed.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

‘70 stepside, wet sanding clear and getting ready to paint cab. I hope ... it’s hot in Las Vegas. But super fun after 8 months of prep.
