Re: Got a little done today....
Nice. I'm pretty busy with a couple of young kids and a wife, but I always look at every small chunk of progress as another piece of the puzzle.

Re: Got a little done today....
Well last night after a trip to O'Riley auto parts for some new bulbs my tire blew....right as I put it in park in the driveway a big gash opened up and it went flat within half a minute....I needed new tires but was going to get everything I could out of these...well I guess it's time for new ones.....

Re: Got a little done today....
i'd throw a jack stand under the driver side, keep that wheel off the ground and prevent it from possibly bending.
sweet truck btw ![]()

Re: Got a little done today....
Broke into the passenger door today and the dash....got my radio working (had to ground it and cut new wires) well out of 4 speakers only one works....two of the speakers were shot (like literally) and got the bed rails off eventually by just breaking the bolts off....

Re: Got a little done today....
Just had a few minutes so I went outside to see about getting those old bed-rails off, I got them off....out of the 12 bolts holding them down 11 of them were so rusty I just broke them off

Re: Got a little done today....
I think I had those same bed rails on my 85 Sierra when I got it. Did you find some wheels yet?
