Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Had to buy a new tool. Astro 1442 Riv-Nut tool. This thing will come in handy! Installed my high hump.

Went to get knobs but left with manual column and the whole dash. Pumped on cluster with no cracks and throttle knob. Also, put two windows in the camper shell. Need to finish before car show next weekend.

After seeing your post, I ordered one of these too. I told my wife it was your fault.

New master cylinder on the 68 and adjusted the brakes. New motor mounts on the 72. Transmission guy called the trans is all ready to go. He had to change the front bearing again now the converter slides right in .

Dash installation is complete on the 71 K10 Cheyenne. New Saddle dash pad, new cluster housing, new heater ducting, new steering wheel. Factory tilt column cleaned up nicely. Doors are next, then carpet and I'll finally get the Truck World Super Saddle seat in it. Can't wait
