Re: Restoring Rusty - Newly POR-15ed Bed Floor
the bed finally going back on, a bit of a bitter sweet as this is the last project in the old house, we really loved that house, it was on a court, it was quiet and all tucked in out of the way, neighbors were great, but don't cry for me Argentina we moved 1/2 a mile away, LOL

Re: Restoring Rusty
I could not have put this back together without my 13 year old son's help, he had a great can do attitude as did my 10 year old daughter
so next we propped up the bed floor with some 2x4s and bolted up the back piece that goes by the cab Last edited by Gregski; 06-25-2015 at 04:08 PM. |

Re: Restoring Rusty
Family first. I really appreciate the fact that your kids are involved. I love it when my wife and daughter help me.
Btw, I picked up a gallon of POR15 today. |

Re: Restoring Rusty
Get to a good Chiro, do your physical therapy exercises the way he tells you, and lay off lifting the heavy stuff and bending over for extended periods for a while.
If you don't your back will stay angry with you and later it'll get back at you. I'm paying for what I did 35 years ago. I didn't lay off cause it felt so much better after the chiro put it back in place...

Re: Restoring Rusty
If you can get working tails and a back plate on it the police aren't likely to bother you on a short daytime trip.

Re: Restoring Rusty
You need a chiropractor, man, not a doctor who gives shots.
Their next move will be to suggest surgery. Don't go there.

Re: Restoring Rusty
I hear you I called 6 Chiropractors today, some did not answer their phone, others could not see me today / until next month some time, others don't take insurance patients. I don't want to pay cash if I have good insurance, type a thing.
