Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Changed my cam and lifters. Easy job everything went perfect. Nothing went wrong.....NOT. What a pain in the but. If I ever have to do this again I will pay someone to do it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Took the plunge and ordered the 69 camaro gas tank kit. Got the tank, sending unit, straps, lock ring/o ring and the anti-squeak kit for $194.00. Will relocate the filler to behind the license plate.

Re-installed clutch return spring. Was looking under my truck for something, and saw the spring had come loose from the frame. Slid(? forced) my big fat behind

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Re-installed a steering stabilizer I had just cleaned up & re-painted. While I had the creeper out, I changed oil & filter and greased all the zerks.
Nothing exciting, but it needed done.... ![]()
