Bought a set of Ralleys with tires off a 79 truck. Got them for a great deal, will probably sell 15x8 ralleys with beauty ring and caps.

Tried to unbolt rear springs with no luck. Now they sit soaking in pb blaster. Will find a pipe to go over my breaker bar tomorrow, hopefully they don't break.

I got allot done today. I put in new shocks and springs on all 4 corners, and I installed new ece trailing arms, and put a dual exhaust that I bought from lmc. The stance of the truck is just how it should be now, and it sounds good as well.

Bought a slightly used rebuilt engine with double hump heads and a Muncie 4 speed to replace the old tired 42 year old engine in my GMC.

Played with the choke and pulled up on it and got it to idle without stalling. Found a vacuum hose with a 1 inch tear at the end.
