Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Got an O2 bung welded into the header reducer. Going to put the truck on a chassis dyno and tune the motor, needed the O2 bung for that.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
finally ordered carpet and kick panel sets after 4 years of fixing her up. Installed the new door panels, armrests, j channel, etc last week. Ready to order the seat cover next payday and she will be almost done...well, on the inside

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
These are from a few days ago, I haven't put up any new pictures of what we've done over the past month or two. We put in new bucket seats from an 2001 silverado, a new steering wheel that we don't really know where it came off of, but it looks nice, we put in armrests too, we also put in a manual choke, and we've done a few personal touches that not everyone will like, but that's why it's my truck haha.
The new seats we put in. So much better then my original bench seat. What it looks like from the front. From the other side. The manual choke from o'reillys we picked up and finally put in. So much easier not having to tap the gas pedal over and over again until it's warmed up. The steering wheel we bought and put in. So much better than the monster of a wheel we originally had. This is the personal touch I was talking about. These pedals are off of base pedals from a drumset and we thought it would be a nice cool little touch for my truck. Not everyone is gonna like them, but again that's why it's my truck.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Well as much as I hate to say it, I put it in storage today. The weather in Michgan is going south and the cold has come. I don't have the luxury of a nice place to work in the winter time, so I put it away today. I will check on it from time to time and get it back out when they stop spreading salt.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Changed the plugs, wires, cap and rotor. I'm surprised the thing ran. There was a spider nest in my cap and the plugs had so much build up they looked solid. The wires were so old they stayed formed in the shape they had been in for years when I pulled them off. Two of the plugs were Valley Forge brand, anyone ever hear of them?
