Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Was finally finishing up my brakes and spotted a crack on my passenger trailing arm. Pulled it off this morning with intentions of welding it up, but after seeing what I was actually working with... I replaced it!!! The second picture shows what was still keeping this together... SCARY!!! The "new" one is in and the Pumpkin is now drivin' and stopping

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

My wife informed me I forgot to mention that I had her operating the comealong in the final positioning, LOL! So thanks honey! I also didn't get a pic of the nylon strap I had hooked to the cross member and around the back of the tranny to hold it in place while I wiggled it into the splines and pilot bushing.

Thanks for the comments!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Drove it. First time since it burned in early 08. Still a long way to go, but it felt good to drive it again. I will put up a link to the video when I get it loaded to Facebook.
