When I got home tonite from the vet. hospital with Buddy,my little boy developed a knot under his jaw bone. I cleaned the truck up to go to a big car show tomorrow in Decatur, Ala.There will be a big swap meet there also.

I have that same control setup for mine and was thinking about doing something similar. What did you use to mount that in? I was thinking about a radio delete panel but that looks fantastic.

Washed it, then painted the front bumper.

I committed some more sacrilege and used a crown vic wire harness as a donor to make a new engine harness. not exactly a MisterB underhood cleanup but atleast it doesn't cut out when I hit a bump and I can finally get to those last two plugs :-)

does anybody out there know what the fuseable link running to the battery is suppose to be for? I looked at the wiring diagram can't tell what it's actually for, mine's always been disconnected. thanks

The Fusible Link is *supposed* to fry if you get a dead short in the primary hot wire , this in theory , prevents electrical fires from burning your Ship Of The Highway to the water line before you can call 911 .

The idea is to use the lowest value one you can that won't get hot and melt or go open circuit .

good looking truck.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

did a little work on my shifter for my 700r4, i reworked the original 4 speed shifter. i still need to extend it a few more inches, tweak the gate on it & make a shift boot.

i also picked up a cool looking speedo and gas gauge out of a buick la sabre from the junk yard along with a gauge style gear indicator, not sure if i'm going to use them on my truck yet.

Installed my new drive shaft which solved all of my problems of the truck violently shaking at high speeds. So now it rides like a dream and I sped down the highway for about an hour.:bann:

Thursday I put in new rear shocks, finished hooking up back-up lights, replaced and bled flex lines for brakes, painted doors to match the rest of my satin black truck, then Friday I took to our collector car appreciation day at my place of employment. The Filling Station.
I would post pics but it wont let me.

Disconnected the vacuum advance and re-timed my truck. 10* btdc and left the vacuum advance disconnected (like GM told me to do) gives me 36* total advance just like I should have. Runs a bunch better.
