I dropped the steering box off with Marty and crew at PowerSteering.com today. The shop is meticulously clean and organized. I have been dealing with them for over thirty years, but this is the first time I visited the shop.

We have some members in Nixa and the area near PS.com.

**davischevy** · 01-06-2020, 09:35 PM

WE now have a rolling chassis with brake and fuel lines hooked up. I found stencils at Hobby Lobby for the numbers on the transmission and drive shaft, but I can't find them, so it may be back to HL, so I can get them ready to go in.

**DeadheadNM** · 01-06-2020, 09:41 PM

I used PS.com to rebuild the oem pump on my Blazer and was really pleased. Great way to go!

Looks like you are on track for summer driving Larry.

**IronCanine** · 01-06-2020, 09:47 PM

Looking great Larry. Love the markings. Keep up the great work!

...Marty sounded taller on the phone.

I have never worked on a Fremont truck before so, to me, the markings are interesting on this truck. The frame had tons of inspection marks, but the cowl and front of the bed had none.

**davischevy** · 01-15-2020, 11:50 PM

I snuck off from the house remodel this afternoon and got the power steering box installed and found another inspection mark on the pitman arm. Blue paint across the center.

**davischevy** · 02-02-2020, 08:36 PM

I didn't get much done this weekend. I hoped to get the exhaust run completely.

**davischevy** · 01-06-2020, 09:52 PM

I don't know about summer driving Pete. My wife has a major remodel planned for her house (She lets me sleep here, lol) and she reminded me tonight when I got home I was going to have to get somebody started on it. I think I have it all farmed out but It will still eat into my truck build time. I'm trying to find somebody to paint the truck to speed things up.

**DeadheadNM** · 02-02-2020, 09:00 PM

Nice! Did you make use of anti squeak pads on the springs?

The original Teflon was still in place so I re-used it.

**davischevy** · 03-23-2020, 10:11 PM

I got back on the K10. I got the fenders sanded today. No rust at all under the battery.

**davischevy** · 07-02-2020, 09:22 PM

We got the kids pool finished, the wife's garden is producing, the 55 is in paint jail, so I finally got back on the K10 this week. I painted two different air cleaners, multiple times and still don't have one I am satisfied with. I'll be out next week, so it will probably still look like this 10 days from now.

**IronCanine** · 07-02-2020, 10:24 PM

Looking good my friend. l can respect a man who goes for max belts.

**mongocanfly** · 02-03-2020, 04:04 AM

looking good other Larry...

67C10Step · 02-26-2020, 09:18 AM

Man, that's nice.

KMC3420 · 02-26-2020, 01:14 PM

Looks better than "fresh off the assembly line"!

**DeadheadNM** · 02-26-2020, 09:13 PM

Nice!

**72ironmike** · 03-04-2021, 07:50 AM

Larry, This truck is just SUPER ! Did you find a paint color for the transfer
case ? I have been using primer ? If so, what did you use ? Mike.

I use primer, then seal it with semi gloss clear.

underliner6 · 02-26-2020, 09:23 PM

Wow that’s clean. Nice work so far!

**Richard** · 03-06-2020, 05:06 AM

Nice work! Always admired those that had the tenacity to go the 100% totally stock restoration path.

**davischevy** · 03-06-2020, 11:50 PM

I had a busy week but I got a few pieces bolted on.

KMC3420 · 03-07-2020, 11:01 PM

Looking awesome!! I applaud you taking the time to install every piece, like new, and keeping it all clean. Gonna be a nice one.
