Re: What did you do to your truck today??
Replaced the passenger side door. The previous door had a big dent in it. The color isn't a good match, but at least the dent is gone. I will install the trim next.

Re: What did you do to your truck today??
Been hearing some gurgling noises in the cooling system lately. When I pulled in the driveway at home later today coolant was spewing from the left radiator tank. Rad lasted 29 years so I cannot complain. Dorman replacement was in stock @ Oreilly's and a direct fit, $255 and lifetime warranty. AC Delco was more than twice that, had to be ordered with limited warranty. I would suspect it is the same part in my experience. Hope I am not taking it out for replacement soon.

Re: What did you do to your truck today??
Recently found out that it's best NOT to be jam'n out in the shop
when changing plug wires. Important to here them "click" when you push them on your spark plugs. Drove 35 minutes to show after waiting all week for them to come in. About 1/2 way there she started running rough again, only to find out I was on 5. *Why the hood is popped in this picture someone took. I had to let her cool down so I could put 3 wires back on the plugs.

Noticed the pinion seal was leaking on my 89 K1500, so I replaced it today.

Re: What did you do to your truck today??
I swapped out the 16x10” Mickey Thompson classic 2’s with circa 2010 Baja atz’s, for a new set of moto metal 20x10’s with 35x12.5 Toyo MT’s on Saturday. Also changed the valve cover gaskets, oil in both diffs and the engine oil and filter. Shes getting ready to go back to daily duty next week after sitting the better part of 9 years on and off.

Re: What did you do to your truck today??
My '89 K1500 has had a minor transmission fluid leak from the front of the transmission since I bought it about two years ago. The torque converter clutch started shuddering recently, so I dropped the transmission, replaced the pump seal and replaced the torque converter. It's back together. The TCC is locking solidly once again, and the dust shield is staying dry.

Re: What did you do to your truck today??
My previous attempt to fix a leak on the front pump of my transmission failed. I pulled the transmission and rebuilt it over the course of this past week. Found a couple broken parts inside. I believe this is the first time this transmission has been rebuilt. It has 300,000 miles on it. Reinstalled it today and took it for a 60-mile drive with no issues.
