Re: On the road again...
Rotated the Pictures. If you are using your phone have you tried rotating it 90º right or left? Try it both ways and post a couple of test pictures here. Remember which way you rotated the phone for each picture.... Truck Looks good! Does it have a front sway bar on it? LockDoc

Re: On the road again...
Doc, I never use my phone to post from. Always my desktop. I guess I could rotate every picture I have to post here, but that would be counterproductive for everywhere else I post.
Thanks for the rotate!!! |

If the pictures look correct on your computer when you open them, click on "File", "Save As" and save them with another name (like Burb-1, Burb- 2, etc. that should remove all of the imbedded Metadata from the picture file and it should be oriented correctly no matter where you post it. Worth a try anyway.... Quote:

Re: On the road again...
Doc, I just tried what you said. I take the pics with my phone and download to my desktop. Still didn't work...

Try turning your phone 1/4 turn right or left when you take the picture and see what that does. If it shows up sideways on your computer leave it that way when you post it. Leon

Re: On the road again...
The engine sounds REALLY good. I haven't driven it far enough to get a good evaluation yet. I had to take it to a shop to get the brakes bled and wheel alignment. Turns out, the reason I couldn't bleed them myself was the proportioning valve was bad. Just took them a new CPP one today. Can't wait to fill the 40gal. tank and check mileage. Hopefully next week.....

Re: On the road again...
Still haven't checked mileage on the engine yet, but I am having SO MUCH FUN driving this thing around!!! After getting the front end aligned (correctly) and the trans shifting like it should, I love driving this EVERY DAY!

Good deal! I feel the same way about my Panel Truck. I have some work I need to do to it but I don't want it out of commission for very long.... LockDoc
