What did you do with your truck this week? (1 Viewer)

Ahhhhh, Something about gear boxes makes me smile. The three components on the left go together along with an adapter and all go in the roller behind them, body is above on the rack

I didn't really do anything to my truck...but my truck did something to someone else's Honda Accord.

Got rear ended waiting to turn right at a red light. The young lady behind me panicked and hit the wrong pedal. My pintle works like a can opener apparently. I had to work a little to pull my hitch out of her hood. You can see the strip of sheet metal that was rolled up under the pintle latch. I told her to keep her foot on the brake as I pulled out and around to a side street to get out of rush hour traffic. She followed me and the car apparently had no terminal damage. Missed the radiator and PS reservoir (or whatever that was I could see on top of her PS fender.

Man that is crazy Rick, hope Dig Dug is okay!

 

[BMThiker]

just a mere scratch on the pintle. I barely felt her hit me. I've hit Atlanta potholes harder than that.

New powder on the bumper

Huge thanks to unique coatings. Dropped it off tues at 4 pm. Ready by lunch Wednesday. 100 bux to blast to bare steel and powdercoat gr02 (gray; 20% metalic)

Now on to the fender.

And heat related stall/no start

 

[BMThiker]

Did you paint your wheels too, or is that just bright sunlight reflection?

 

[jfz80]

Wheels have been white for a lil over a year or so. Matches the fender

Really for the 45 but been driving the 80 so much I stole the Ats and they never made it back.

 

[jfz80]

And just dropped the winch in too. Finally getting this thing back together after two years and two months

I went to Charleston to pick up a set of wheels that Dbenke was nice enough to give me and we worked on Scott J's 62! David got the engine bolted up to the tranny and I bolted up the motor mounts! David also got the distributor put in and he taught me what Top Dead Center was!!! LOL He also charged up the AC on my Tacoma and it is blowing really cold now!! Thanks so much for the help and rims, Dbenke! I also got some paint for the rims and I'll have them ready for the 4runner before Logan's Run!!!!!!!
