Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Well, today I started the maintenance needed to get the truck back on the road. Did an oil change but cant get the filter off. My filter wrench just bends the filter. Got all the grease fittings lubed. Went to change the gear oil in the trans. Discovered I have no drain plug so now I need to find my suction pump in this move in mess. Removed the diff cover and cleaned out the housing, Gears looked good, so new gasket & gear lube. Replaced the spark plugs. Took off for a " short" run. Came back about 1.5 hrs later. Truck ran good. Looking forward to some road trips this summer.
