Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

More beef jerky about 5 1/2lbs, 18F outside, while I'm working on the door wire loom and pin. 67 going to have interior lights come on when I open the door. P/W and P/L in the doors

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

While driving down to pick up an underdash harness for my blazer from Randy500, my transmission decided it was time for a rebuild.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Did something I’ve never done before- waxed the inside of the bed. Also, installed my spare bracket and sandblasted and painted the spare wheel

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Got an inner door patch panel for my pass. door and found out the fit is awful so I'm just piecing the bottom of the door back together eliminating the rust with parts of the patch. Progress is slow but steady, it doesn't have to be that pretty since the ole girl's a daily driver.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Found enough dirt in the firewall to bury somebody lol. I continued on the body repairs to hopefully have this thing painted soon

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

I set the cab back on the chassis. Mainly because I was tired of leaving the cab out in the weather, fearing rust or hail. While it’s in the garage I hope to get the firewall smoothed out, and do some more mocking up of various components.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Continuing on the pass. door repair I finished up the door bottom and got the ugly speaker hole filled as well. I'll tackle the door skin corners tomorrow and it'll be on to some quick body work and rattle can touch up

Always take your pics with your phone horizontal not vertical. Vertical pics turn 90 deg. when added to here.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Never have liked intake noise so I took off the open element air cleaner and the stock single snorkel air cleaner really impacts performance above ~3K so I put a repo dual snorkel air cleaner assembly on. Not sure I like the how it looks.

Where? I may be making a pilgrimage down that way to buy some wood for a project I'm building. I could kill many birds that way, maybe. I'd like to have one, myself.
