Re: What did you do today not on your truck...

Boog,
Man, you are correct. My FIL wasn't a big preventive maintenance person for some reason. His tractors would have never gotten greased or oil changed if not for me. This truck probably hasn't seen a grease gun in no telling how many years. I'm wire brushing the zerks out of the dirt for the most part.

I am using this as a bit of a therapeutic exercise. As I am cleaning and repairing I keep thinking of my FIL and sometimes mentally talking to him. Mostly chuckling when making discoveries. He was big on having gloves and flashlights in your vehicle. I found three flashlights and four pairs of gloves in the truck. Along with jumper cables, ice scraper, hitch, packing blanket, rope, compass, tape measure, etc. I took one set of gloves and flashlight and stuck them back in one of the rear cubby holes.
