Bad week, and needing parts.
In short, fuel filters breaking inside themselvs causing the carb to be flooded with dirt, and the spare filter having a hole leaving me a night with out work (pizza delivery), dire need of an oil change (tomorrow) with the idle oil pressure being low compared to normal.
Tonight slammed into a pot hole on a dirt road (didn't see it coming) and destroyed a bump stop, feels like the alignment is off and the steering box seems to have a lot more play than normal. I feel I'm also paranoid about the steering box.. But it also leaks fluid so a new one wouldn't be such a bad idea. Cept that I have little money. On top of the rust issues (read: cab swap looks good right now) I need to battle this summer, I'm stacked up and stressed out. Not to the point of selling by any means, or quiting. But the CST10 is my income (pizza delivery) and these little things are amplified by driving... Going to open a WTB later, but where can I find a cheap pair of bump stops? Stock or a set for a lowered truck, as I've got 3" drop springs up front. Also need a new set of front drop shocks, as back in december we payed no attention that these were nitrogen shocks and they were mounted upside down... (d'oh!) they are Doetsch(?) Nitro slammer and ride GREAT when they were good. Steering box can wait, the truck still turns fine but it just feels like there's a lot more play in the input shaft. But again, paranoia takes over Last edited by texanidiot25; 06-09-2009 at 10:38 PM. |
