Hmm -- it smelled sulfurous in there, like gear oil. What are the other explanations? I know the brakes need work back there so it could be a leaky wheel cylinder but it sure seems more like grease or gear oil. My theory is it's leaking down and getting churned up by the brakes. (The shoes and drum were all greasy)

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Did some cleaning on the trucks. took them for a short ride one at a time of course. its a long story how I ended up with 3 69 models and really wanted a 68.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Built a new trans cross member for my six speed made it so i could run exhaust under it also cut out the rear cross member and welded in plate to run exhaust through it.Pay no attention to the (temporary) fuel lines i had to do that to move the truck, i plan on going stainless tubing.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Yesterday I reinstalled the tail light trim that came with the truck, not 68 correct but I like it and it's cheap like me. Today I reinstalled the door sill plates and hauled the rider to the daughters and mowed her grass. This old girl hauls!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

Nice truck, I wouldn't raddle can it, Maaco quoted me price of $900 with body work or $300 less without door jams. Want to two-tone mine so going it alone with paint from (Paint For Cars. com) Toms River, N.J. ...$75/$85 per gallon kit with everything. By the way mine is going to be silver on top with Midnight Blue on bottom...about like your color.

Can we get a photo of the shifter location in the cab? And what shifter location did you use on the trans? Is this the T56 Magnum 6 speed?

Really nice job on the trans mount by the way!

Thanks!!!
