Weather here has been incredible. While my wheels were getting installed I had time to walk around underneath the 40. Everything looks pretty good. Noticed the slave cylinder was leaking a bit so that needs addressed. Hit up all the grease zerks and noticed one of the boots in my steering needs attention at some point.

PO mod. I'm guessing it was a drop shank of some sort. I'm toying with the idea of fabricating a detachable basket opposite the tire for a cooler.
Wheels and tires look great! Fellow '74.

I need to redo and install the skid plate. I would like to take on the trails this summer.
Hey so I noticed on your hood the windshield bumper pads installed the opposite direction of mine. I have not put my windshield down to test but these definitely appeared original to the truck. It was a major chore to replace them. Soon I'll be putting my hardtop back on I will test it out then.
