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

Today I installed the rally wheels that I painted yesterday, replaced a warped pully on the crank, and tried to isolate where a vibration was coming from in teh motor (hence the pully replacement). I also swapped the carb.

I went to The Truck Shop in Orange , Ca. and bought over $2,000 worth of bits and bobs for the new cab ~ there's so much more to get yet .

I also ordered up all new MOOG ball joints and tie rod ends....

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

A reminder :

FREE CAB with good rust free roof and corners , in Gardena , Ca.

Come get it fast before they cut it up .

Dash is good and uncut too , everything else is trash .

You'll need a trailer and helping hands ~ this is a working Paint Shop and they don't have time to screw with old junk .

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

Bought a new used bumper. Sanded down the black paint and took off the rust in back. Removed the tow ball and put plugs in the holes. New paint and a serious polish and the chrome looks Great! Looks as good as new, $60 bucks.

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

Got my tires mounted by a good friend on my newly polished rims.
Hope to have the Kodiak axle under the C50 in a few days and mount these!
