Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Painted the tailgate, fitting the bed (in primer) tomorrow so I can drill the wood bed. Then remove and paint and reassemble.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I just went out yesterday in the carport and checked the dryer sheets and made sure no vagrant rodents were setting up shop..

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Remember to change those dryer sheets every month or you'll get an unpleasant surprise....
I just came back from running errands in my stalling out C/10 W/ 250 I6 & TH350 , two footing it through dense L.A. traffic isn't my idea of fun . I stopped to fill the tank and did a fuel economy check ~G , not bad for an old clapped out pickup truck .

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I removed all the trim (moulding) from the fender I bought from Jeremiah King. (It came off amazingly easy). Then I ran it over to the body shop to fix the UPS damage.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Redid the door panels in my truck a few days ago.
Also installed road kill inside the doors while I had them a part!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I got my Aux Battery system working on my longhorn. A big thanks to Roger Koop for the harness, fits and works great. Now I have 12V power at the back of the truck via the camper harness.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Played with glove box stuff while I wait for the new alt.
Nice day. So I was also under the hood cleaning up a little. In the mail came some faux leather sheeting. I'm trying to figure out if I want to match the cluster by getting a *real* chrome glove box and covering the center with an insert of this stuff, or just stop all the madness and paint it the color of the dash.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I installed the Air tank and compressor on the Frame. Tomorrow I am going to try and mount the Solenoids. Then it is on to Routing the air lines.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Picked up a cherry H052 4.10 ratio 3rd member with it's axle shafts.
Big step forward in getting my burb more highway friendly, by swapping out my 4.57 3rd member for the 4.10's.

Bravo!
