Re: The Pickup Truck

well its been awhile things have been going kinda slow, school started for one. anyway today i got working on the rear drums, they were pretty well frozen up, so i got one side adjusted and hopefully tomorrow I'll get the other side done.
I'm have trouble with the parking brake cable, it looks like its frozen in the line that goes inside the drum. when i took the drum off i had someone move the brake lever back and forth while i watched the cable inside the drum. nothing was moving, the cable would tighten up out side but wouldn't budge on the inside. so it looks like i'll have to replace that, and maybe the whole drum.

here's a pic...



I'm wanting to get this done so i can drive it into the shop where I can really get to work on it.
