You should just drop it off at my shop. Leave it there while you figure out what you want to do. Take your time and forget about it for awhile .



And if parts that may be needed.on my truck fall off yours and land on mine

That's what friends are for.

 

[megolfer]

Lol thanks but I at least want to get it driveable and take it for a spin around town

 

[megolfer]

Seats are done. Not bolted in yet

 

[TOMSRYD]

Whoa. Seats look great.

If you do get ready to sell it, can I have the gun rack....

 

[wngrog]

You need to find something else to sell

For sure, it’s way to close to me very weak kneed when it comes to og 45 lpb’s

 

[megolfer]

Im doing everything I can

 

[megolfer]

Got the brakes back together. They are horrible. Need to be bled more and adjusted. What a pain un the butt. Rebuilt all the wheel cylinders. Had one leak. Took it apart and honed it and it seems to be holding. Adjusting these brakes suck.

 

[wngrog]

He’s alive!!!

Bruh. Took me weeks.

 

[megolfer]

Ya thats whaat I am afraid of. Looks like no leaks as of now so I saved a ton. Fronts looked to be original wheel cylinders, rears looked to have been replaced. Cant wait to get it all adjusted and be able to take it on some road trips

 

[wngrog]

Search out the pages in my build where I did this. @FJ40Jim dropped some gold in there that made mine work

 

[megolfer]

Got the brakes all dialed in. Was able to rebuild all the wheel cylinders and master. Got the seats in and unterior almost all buttoned up. All the lights are working. Been driving it around and its running pretty good.

 

[megolfer]

Ok so the headlight switch has 4 positions. Straight up seems like off. Two clicks to the left are headlights. One click to right is park lights. One click to the right nothing. Anyone know what each click should do.

Also whe should the front markers be on. Thanks

 

[JackA]

All the way to the left....headlights, tail lights, cluster, license plate light
Next spot.....parking lights, tail lights, cluster, license plate light
Next is off
All the way right ....only tail lights and license plate light

 

[megolfer]

Awesome. Thanks

 

[wngrog]

Awesome. Thanks

For some reason...I think it was because my switch was weak, I had to run relays for my low beams. Ever since no issues.

 

[wngrog]

Btw. Happy for you. Hope you turned the corner and can keep it.

 

[megolfer]

Time will tell if I can keep it.
