Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

After a wash and a quick cruise I started cleaning up the cross member and sway bar I grabbed off a ‘77 Scottsdale. I’m hoping to eliminate the horrendous body roll that goes along with having leafs on all 4 corners.

Well it wasn't today but might be helpful to the guys installing M20-21-22's in their trucks . I used a new Hurst competition -plus shifter and install kit from Summit to set mine up ,Along with Paul's hardened tool steel bushings and clips . And after talking to Paul I'll be adding a tail shaft trans mount :chevy:

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

great outcome old Binks gun and all:)

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Headliner looks great. My 91 burb has needed one my entire ownership. They sell the pre-formed pad/headliner combo I was thinking about buying.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Love Penetrol. Just don't lean on it real hard for a couple days haha.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

The later cloth headliners are available mine is vinyl. Pattern called snakebite closeup of the old liner . I matched up to material used in alfa romeo

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

I didn’t know that. Yeah mine was just blue cloth. The boards are all warped anyway so may try the board/cloth pre assembled headliner.

It's rained on it twice the morning after I put in on.

But it's coming around slowly.
Going to have to paint the roof soon..

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

I drove mine yesterday, I think it developed a vacuum leak. Have to work on that. Otherwise she is doing well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Cleaned up the 4x4 fan shroud I bought from CUSTOM/10. I used Gunk, de-greaser and a power washer, being careful to not mar the factory finish. Will be nice when installed.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Oooooo that is nice! I just posted a thread about adding one back to mine! Looks like a real score!

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Finally broke down and removed all the heater and controls. I’ll probably be in the hospital due to the hantavirus with all the mouse stuff in there. The outer box was completely full of leaves, acorns, and dirt dauber nests. Good news was the fan motor worked after knocking a pound of mud nests off the wheel. Bad news is the outer box is pretty much shot. Lower left corner is broken and the metal area between the fan and firewall is rusted gone.

The cardboard was sagging on mine too. I dampened the top side of it and layed a few paver blocks on it in the sun. Sag came out but most likely will return

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Replaced all the vacuum hoses, and carb fuel filter. Took it for a test drive and eliminated the rough idle while stopped in drive.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Removed the side mount aluminum tool box and fire extinguisher bracket from the bed of my new truck....lookin' better already!
Next up....back rack & warning lights

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

I’m a big fan of fixing vacuum leaks, #1 pet peeve when the carb signal gets altered!

I just looked at mine from my garage chair today.
