Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well we finally got the Cragars on the rear of the Truck today, it looks just a little bit better. What do you think ?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
We hosted our grandsons Ethans 2nd. Birthday Party, had a good time. Had to roll the truck out of the garage so we could run the A/C and have an extended party when it got too hot (95 degrees yesterday) things went well, got some good pictures of the truck in bright sunlight, colors look better than before.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well I could not leave well enough alone ... I had a running truck ... now I have a lot of work .. The other engine was a bit on the loose side , and a customer gave me an engine , so I figured since it had a/c and p/s on it it would be a good candidate ... only problem is I think since I made my own p/s hoses I may have wrenched the retun hose on the back of the pump , it looks like it is on the punky side .. this was suppose to be an easy swap , yeah right ...I got the p/s box mounted last sat. night and worked on it tonight til I found the cab has settled enough that I need to notch the firewall to lift the column up a bit so it is a straight shot for the box .. I will fix it right if I tear it appart this winter....

Took the whitewalls from the UPS guy and put them in the bed until I get time to head up to the tire shop.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I got the rear section of my frame and rearend components painted in Eastwood's Rust Encapsulator today and will finish it off with their Extreme Chassis Black Satin tomorrow. I took a big jump for an old dude and instead of rattle cans which I used on the front suspension, and I have an old gravity gun that I haven't used for years, I thought I'd go "new school" and give HVLP a try. I went to Harbor Freight and bought one of their $40 HVLP guns (I figured it was good enough for the chassis) and did my first spraying with an HVLP. I love this thing.
