Replaced the rear main seal and oil pan gasket. Had to contend with a snapped off bolt the PO left for me. Bought a right angle drill from Harbor Freight to access the hole because it was right above the cross member. Hammered a Torx bit into it and fortunately it unscrewed. I felt like I won the lottery when that happened. The PO also used RTV on the entire rear main seal, so I had to make a scraper to very carefully clean out the passageway above the crank.

Changed my electric fuel pump on ol Samson, it was a pain to get to inside the frame rails with the exhaust but it’s done now.

Finally changed throttle out to a cable. Decided to add some bling, deluxe pedal assemblies while I was at it. And new floor mats to try and hide the hole in the carpet left by the floor mounted pedal

in the boxes. One tested good and was an easy install with the whole front end off the truck. I hope I never have to go back in there. Tom |

Drivers side kick my butt today . I’m used to having the passenger side worse than the drivers it this was a farm truck. So I guess all the slop ended up there. Made all the patches myself most likely would have been harder with aftermarkets also put two coats of pour 15 on the passenger side.

I rented a hot power washer and de-greased the drive train and engine bay. PO's did not have a functioning PCV system and oil was misting everywhere. Now I can finally proceed with my engine update project!
