Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
New shift shaft seal on the th350 . I had this rebuilt about two years ago either they used a cheap seal or never replaced it . The rubber was hard as a rock . The PMD products puller worked flawlessly . Took about 10 minutes start to finish the silver tool is the seal driver .

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Well done Mark, my guess is they never replaced the seal before ........

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Yes I believe to official start is Thursday for the swap meet and Friday Saturday for the show I get there Wednesday much easier to get set up without people walking around . I’m still debating whether or not I will tow out the 68 stepside

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I have three spots . Usually it’s crowded up with the trailer and my other trucks to the point it’s a little hard setting up the tent . Last year I had three trucks here . Hope to have all 4 next year

Haven't heard much from Husky Tim in a long time. Do we reckon he's passed away?

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Made a cover box for the wires coming out of the wire harness block on the fire wall. Got the hood ready for paint. Going to paint them today.
(If I post it I will be motivated to do it!! Getter done)

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
I used an 1-1/4” bar from a 1ton square body. Direct fit just need to order the bushings for the 1-1/4 bar. Tremendous upgrade in handling.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Nice Bowtie.
![]() Some years ago I looked into the possibility of using LEDs inside the blue lens on the 69/70 Emblem. It's do-able, but I don't have a truck to put it on. Just the spare hood.
