should be driving my truck next week
hi guys
i joined a couple weeks ago but have been so busy fixing the truck up at night after work . been meaning to say hi and tell you about my truck . bought it 2 weeks ago up in northern oklahoma after seeing it in a yard parked up . the guy said he bought it from the previous owner telling him it had thrown a bearing or severly damaged the engine some how and unable to drive it for a year. after getting it to my work and checking underneath i noticed a starter bolt missing . then noticed the trans had come away from the engine about 1/4 inch . opened the inspection cover and discovered that the fly wheel had completly cracked and came away from the crank . what luck !!!! spent $58 on a new flywheel and fitted it myself . after sorting a glow plug problem out and putting two new batterys on she fires right up . replaced a u joint and did all the fluids , filters , belts , hoses , flushed radiator . will be getting slightly narrower tires soon . also plan on covering the seats , new carpet , and painting it . she drives really good for a 1 ton diesel truck but need to get the brakes serviced which im doing on monday . also asking firestone to check out the front end as i get a really bad wobble sometimes . ok here are some pics and ill post more as i progress with it . |
