Looks good, what is it off of?

IT's off a 91 chevy silverado. It fits perfect just had to drill some holes in the frame and in the fenders.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Registered it!
Got Connecticut Early American plates.
Took her out for a nice ride today.

Finally found a donor truck at the salvage that I could use the pass. vent window assembly to rebuild mine with! Now i'm done with cab rubber replacement, except for front and back glass.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Replaced my driver's side window regulator, which is always fun.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I took the truck of the stands, washed down the engine and cleaned the interior. I took down the sunvisors and they must of had 20 years of dust on them under all the sanding dust that got added to them. As soon as this white stuff goes away and all the darn salt on our roads it's going to get a good hosing.

put new thermostat in, and used the Permadryplus from Fel-pro

changed oil with Castrol high mileage

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Sanded on the cab tonight. Juse few more days of days of sanding then off to the paint booth.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Tinkered around. Put a coat of clear on my headlight, wiper knob and cigarette lighter. Replaced the driver side defrost duct and fired her up in the garage for a few minutes.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

and also sprayed down my engine bay with degreaser

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Put in a new temp gauge and sender.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

No particular reason. I smoothed down some gouges and then cleared the knobs. It turned them shiny. Hopefully it will last. They were some extras I just picked up. I may take some pics today when I get home so you all can tell me what you think.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

installed my power steering box and cross link. Found out the tie rod ends I have are all wrong. So back to the parts store. Recieved My wiring harness from EzWiring.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I bought a cab! It is a '71 A/C cab and the first major piece of the puzzle for me. I am stoked!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Put some 1 inch spacers under the rear coils to put a little rake in her.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Spent way to much time next to the air compressor sand blasting a set of rally wheels.
Hopefully paint will get sprayed tomorrow so I can mount my new to me 31x10.5 BFG All Terrians.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

a few quick coats of Clear Rustoleum Engine Enamel. 500degree heat resistant, gas and oil resistant. So my greasy finger won't break the clear down.

Again, Why? ...... No idea

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I rebuilt my carb. I'll say this: I was terrified about taking this thing apart, but it really wasn't that bad. I just took a lot of pictures and took my time. Having done it once, I feel like I could probably put the thing together in 20 minutes now.

So, if anyone is on the fence about tearing into one of these, DO IT!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

(Its the simple things) :)

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

got it vaccumed out, will pull it out and wash it and clean the windows tomorrow

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

They were 73 stock spindles. Installed in 2007, and I know my truck doesn't have over 600 miles on it since the install. Only thing I can think of is I did not have enough bearing grease. Other than that, I dont have a clue.

Should be ready by the end of the day to make the CPP cruise tomorrow.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

60ratrod- I was on the Lincoln too-VA-95, A-6's. Our last cruise was in 95'. It was my last one too. In fact I was stationed at Oak Harbor.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

60ratrod- Man what a small world. I just looked at your profile. I was an AO too. VA128 and 95 out of Oak Harbor. You still at it?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Put all new shocks and sway bar end links in the 98 S10. Man she rides so nice now since the old ones were wore out and the end links were broke.
