Re: PO has me PO'd

Changed my mind, I'll mount a screen with a cover plate on top, since heat rises. Should make good air flow

Finally got the correct M/C Booster unit, now to paint and mount.... again!

Yep, heat rises but just make sure to give it somewhere to rise from.
I.E. - holes in the bottom.

Re: PO has me PO'd

Just spoke to M&H Elec. Fab. and was told it is correct to hook the red and black wire together on the stud of the block(ASM-SPL JUNC) mounted on the pass. side fender. The fused black wire(4 amp), with a white tracer on opposite side of truck, is to power up Ampere Gauge. Now to clean it up and antiseize the post

Soooo, this is the rare situation where red and black go together...confusion solved, onward

Thanks for your help and time guys

Re: PO has me PO'd

Finally had the time to hang the correct rebuilt M/C Booster, I may have finally removed all of the PO's handywork...that only took about a month to fix the problem.

Before someone tells me my mounting nuts are loose, I'll tell you what happened. I bought 4 new locking nuts, I dropped one, and the garage ate it! So the bottom one that is on there is to remind me to get another one

I'll probably have the cover plate Cadium plated later on.

Also received my second set of utility seats from Low n' slow, his are in much better condition...Thank You Doug

Re: PO has me PO'd

Also finished up the bottom of the SS brake lines this mornin'...gotta find the last bracket for MC/ Booster in the parts pile. That could take awhile.

Todo list is getting shorter for start up

Those lines look pretty nice...ever thought of becoming a plumber?

But seriously, things are looking great!

Sorry Tim, missed your reply. Can't accept credit for them, InLine Tube did all the work, and great people to deal with. Called them numerous times with questions and they were always helpful and friendly. Still have to buy the emergency brake cables

Thanks for the offer, but after 35 years of crawling around in grease in all sorts of temperatures I'm sticking with Pharmaceuticals ( Sterile and Aseptic)
