Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

New hood hinges, the others were shot and even had bolts instead of rivets in a couple spots. That little tool they sell to pull the springs made it easy (plus the college football player is home for a couple of days so I cheated). Also pulled the RH inner fender and the heater box. Some PO had the heater core in upside down, goofy ground wire installed wrong, only half the bolts holding it in as well as a HUGE mouse nest on the inner portion. Also unbolted both exhaust manifolds and found those bolts loose with gaskets behind the ram horn manifolds. Well, at least putting in the correct plug wire stands, shields and new plugs will be way easier!
