Today, I took out the plastic bedliner that came with her, glad to see it go too. On Wednesday I changed the alternator!

And more importantly, paid for my premium subscription to the board. This site has been awesome! I support things that I think are worthwhile and this was the best $25 I've spent in a long time.

pat 70/71 · 08-28-2010, 12:21 AM

Pont406 · 08-28-2010, 12:42 AM

Installed 15x10 wheels. I might get some 1/8 mile passes soon.

Sven · 08-28-2010, 01:32 AM

Took off the cowl, pulled out the windshield washer squirters that are full of stinking paint. Found the washer pump buried up under the dash. Going to get a late model bottle and pump, install it and extend the wiring. Also, going to see if LMC or someone has better windshield washer squirters.

BADPURPLE70CHEVY · 08-28-2010, 09:59 AM

Getting her out and cruise all day.............

Scott Webster · 08-28-2010, 10:20 AM

Pont406 - what size tires you got on those 15x10's? They look sharp!

RCbowtie69 · 08-28-2010, 11:08 AM

going to drive to birthday party today, love to drive it when i can,soon will be putting new motor & trans, 350\700r4,here a pic, i hope

Davetopay · 08-28-2010, 02:18 PM

Swapped the starter.....again.

Took a ride out to the lake.

Took a side trip onto the powerline road only to turn around when I saw the water crossings. Not doin that mess without a buddy and a yank strap.

Also found out that the Co-Op Grip Spurs work great in the muck, and for some reason I can no longer engage 4-hi. Not a big deal as long as 4-lo works, but irksome none the less.

johnnytuff · 08-28-2010, 03:43 PM

Searched the forum found out how to replace broken wheel studs. Successfully replaced 2 studs on front 4x4. Thanks again people!

Went to the Autofair here in Charlotte to pick up a few parts.

Got some red tail light lenses from Top Banana, then picked up 4 brand new rally wheel "flat" caps for $75. They should look very good with my Corvette style rallys.

Going to swap out all of the clear lenses on my truck next time I find time out of my schedule. Truck will look so much better once the tail lights and side markers look like they should.
