Re: And so it begins................
Nope I was out of town when the weather was nice and its been raining and looks to all week so I dunno when I will get a chance to get underneath it and drop the starter to get a new plug in it and try again. Still crossin my fingers I know there is no antifreeze in the oil so thats a good sign so far.

Re: And so it begins................
If it busted it will probably be on the outside of the block. Look it over with a light while you're down there.

Re: And so it begins................
You may have already checked it, but what about the u-joints in the driveshaft. Think maybe one of them is clanking on you?

Re: And so it begins................
It was hard to tell on the street with the rain and I won't be able to fire it up till I put the dash back in unless I cap the oil pressure line with something but when I get the wiper stuff fixed I'll check it out some more. I might swing up your way agian sincce you're the expert!

We may have to drive it around with someone in the bed, and maybe another set of ears in the cab. I call the cab!

Re: And so it begins................
Ok the brown santa brought some parts yesterday so I threw them in!
Got the new fresh air cowl vent installed but it's not closing. Looks like some new vacum lines are in the near future! New washer pump installed on new wiper motor. Finally got the motor installed!!! Duct kit? No sir! DUCT TAPE! LOL The new motor is officially buried again!! AND WE HAVE WASHER FLUID!!!!!!!! The wipers are working good too but it's hard to take a pic of that! Last edited by highperf4x4; 03-17-2010 at 12:06 AM. |

Re: And so it begins................
Here's some more pics of the gauge panel I got from Edd Dial
Ok John!! I changed the freakin dash lights to blue and now they're not bright enough!!!!! Actually I bought the bulbs at O'reily's and they were slightly smaller than the purple bulbs installed by Edd Dial. I'm not sure if there is a difference or what. I guess I'll see if I can order some online. Last edited by highperf4x4; 03-17-2010 at 12:10 AM. |
