got my oil psi, and wideband gauges wired in today... just need to hook up the sensors when the new motor goes in.

 

Took out the main 3" exhaust pipe and replaced it w/ 2.5". Then me and few buddies went running through section lines filled w/ snow banks. No pics sorry fellas

 

truck got all new plugs, wires, cap, rotor and pcv valve. and still runs like poop. time to chase more ghosts...

 

I took a bit of a detour home today...

 

It's retribution for trying to sell it.
That looks like it was fun.


Going out to the country today. And that means lots of highway miles. (and gas on Tuesday)

 

Went and picked up my engine and trans (rebuildable cores..... 275.00) and while I was getting gas, discovered the trans connector was a three wire.... 46RH... Ooops. Waiting for a call-back from the guy I picked them up from.

 

Yesterday I removed the running boards so I could see what's going on for rust. To my suprize I only found one rust hole pass side rocker, all the cab corners are good . So two new fenders, one rocker, a box, two bumpers not bad at all. There was a small bit of rash so that was sanded down, treated and box liner painted, temp repair until the weather gets warmer. Without the running boards she looks a lot bigger and I can fit some big meats under the truck, so do I put them back on or leave them off. I was looking at off-road bumpers yesterday man oh man not cheap by any means.

 

I vote put them on, you've got the ground clearance to justify it!

My truck had nerf bars when I got it, took them off, truck looks taller without them. Same with the bumper valance too

 

I think you right I never drove it yesterday after taking them off, I have today twice.....this old man needs a step. I will keep them of until the body work is done then back on they go.

 

Just gotta push the connector on a little harder..heehee.....
