Thanks, hey, you and I talked about rubber recently too. I now have my 225/60R15's on the front, 295/50R15's for the back not due in for 2 more weeks.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Those are going to be some big rears! Let me know how they work out. I like that wide look in the back... Of the truck. :)

Will do, and found a Camaro with 295/50R15's on the back at a cruise night, they looked great, but photo's I took did not do them justice

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Yesterday, I test fit the inner fenders to the core support. Fit great!

Then I removed the interior in prep for removing the cab and started removing the steering column so I can shorten it.

Not too much but, still, progress.

Finally got off my lazy butt and finished my instrument cluster.

And installed into the truck. Everything actually works too.

Installed a complete lock set ( doors, glove box ignition) and installed new felts and rubbers on passenger door on the suburban. Oh ya and put a new ignition switch.

I put the new front park brake cable in but something is missing and I can't remember what the part looks like or i routed it wrong. This is under the dash where it hooks up to the handle.
I also installed the flexplate I just got on the engine and mated the tranny up with it. It is just sitting on the floor waiting to get installed into the truck. Now I just have to get the truck home so i can do this.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Its just a u shaped bracket John that slips over the end of the cable I believe...

The gray primer - light blue paint - dark blue paint comes thru great.

Let me rephrase that. It is the part that holds the housing so you can put tention on the cable. It has been about 6 years since I took it apart. I can't remember what I did yesterday.. :lol:

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Met up with my son who handed over some custom aluminum and brass punches he whittled up for me. Now I can get restarted on the windshield trim project. My old steel punches are too big and beat up for such delicate work, and the wood I have available doesn’t hold up long enough. I probably won’t have much need for the big ones on the left, but you never know:

Knocked all the dents out of the new wide windshield trim.

Finally got my hands on my new beauty rings. The guy was quite upset as he sells the center caps I want, but was out of stock, so I will get the center caps in a couple of weeks.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

What center caps are they?
