OOOKKKK. So, as I continue to clean out the fuel system, and things seem to be going well there, new problems arise.

I'm going to try and replace my cab to frame mounting kit. I just ordered a complete set from Wes at Classic Heartbeat. And it seems my brake drums are rusted up....that's "all" I hope it is anyway because it could be my transmission is rusty in the rear end!

I'm going over to Advance here in a bit to try and get some brake tools as I have none and I'm new at this sort of thing. The right tools might help me out.

If it's the transmission, I forsee a rollback in my future and a trip to a garage. If that happens I will go from a 4:11 to a 3:73 so at least I can drive this thing on the interstate more.
