Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Sold a "Blam-blam" I wasn't using. Drove 250 miles each way (to SF, CA) to collect the dough so I can buy some wheels.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Fabricated and connected my 1972 steering column to my 2001 power rack and pinion.
To see all the progress check out the Crew Cab build thread Young Frankenstein.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I really didn't want to take this to the "other gearhead" thing of mine. I shouldn't have said anything non-truck. But.........

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Welded the burb's hood hinge back together. Much better having two hinges vs one and an arm/stick holding up the hood.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Bought some upper/lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends, and some drop shocks for the front end rebuild. I will start that on Monday. Chopped up a 92 s-10 blazer bumper to make a gravel guard that goes all the way across the rear bumper. Turned out good. Installed the toggle/kill switch for the HEI.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Centered my steering wheel. It was off by a quarter turn. Then I replaced my left turn signal canceling spring. I was the guy whose left turn signal never gets turn off.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
i hear that the chrome ones have less of a life span since the chrome keeps the heat in more than the natural cast ones
