Re: What did you do to your truck today?

during the weekend on the 65 1ton I changed the oil, serviced the trans, replaced the carier baring, replaced the rear dualls with tubeless rims and tires, and gave everything a shot of grease.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

We have been working the past several days on Jon C's big back window, factory A/C cab. We are making some good progress and should be done in a few days. Sorry for the photo quality...the shop lights and my digital camera aren't getting along very well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

As for the heater thing i had some heater stuff go on also this week,
I got a new motor because mine got weak and was making real loud bad noises so i got one came home took it out relized it was just the fan.......
No need to fix whats not broken so i take the motor back get a fan the dam fan cost about the same as the motor, they went up in price like 12 bucks up in price......... OUCH........ but it all works great now...
So if you hear a nasty noise coming from the motor its prob just the fan...
For those that have not messed with the heater yet....
Also changing that part made me so happy i owne this truck it was so dam fast and EASY these trucks are the BEST!!!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Finished all of the little details in the engine compartment. It's a used 250 that I bought from another board member 2 weeks ago. I gave it a little clean off, some new gaskets, and fresh paint.




New battery tray and hardware too. How nice, I usually build my own. It was refreshing to just spend the cash and get one ready to bolt in.



I needed a new radiator, so I ordered one of the generic Summit aluminum ones like Chief Rocka detailed in his thread. I mounted mine a bit differently, but it's in there real nice. Great price too.




It took a bit of head scratching to come up with some nice molded radiator hoses since this is a non stock application now. It was worth it to me because I hate flex hoses.
