Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Packing up the3 bed full of motor, trans, steering column, extra parts I might need, extra parts I don't need and towing my 64 step down to Tucson to my brother's place.
He said he could put it together, but man I just don't know if he can. Wait and see I guess. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I had plastic wiper arms on the truck when I first bought it in `93, running down the road with traffic raining real hard , I`ve got the wipers on high and the right one flew off and hit the car next to me at the light, thank god the driver had a sense of humor he just started laughing.

I stopped and picked them up. and like a MORON I drove down there in a absolute deluge to make them put them on correctly. Well, they sent out a young girl, that was so small she had to bring a step ladder. To stand on, in a epic downpoor. while all six foot four 245lbs of my embarrassed *** sat in the the truck and proved a point. horrible expierence. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Happy Thanksgiving everyone, well I fired it up for a short time yesterday, first time in about a year, popped right off sounds nasty, anyway had a leak at the cooling lines (700r4) I ran the lines right in but need fittings between line and tranny, I had two in my box they fit tranny and not return line, I will hunt some down tomorrow, hope you all have a great turkey day
