Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
so finally got around to installing the 2010 Honda Fit throttle pedal in the truck
nice thing about this pedal is that it has a metal rod, which we can [ahem] persuade here I am showing off my handrolic press who knew these expensive cable lugs make cheap spacers a lot of filing makes for perfect straight and even cuts each and every time |

Re: My Dusty 71 GMCe Electruck
so a little truck update after a year and nearly 1,600 miles, here's the only bad thing that I found so far. one of the transmission crossmember bolts lost it's nut and the other one is on only hand tight. now I think one of two things happened, SOMEBODY forgot to tighten these to begin with, or it being rubber mounted they just came loose on the account of a lack of a lock washer and or nylon locking nut
so here's the belt and suspenders plan to make sure it don't happen again, we are going to use both lock washer and nylon nuts Last edited by Gregski; 07-02-2024 at 03:34 PM. |
