WHAT YOU DID TO YOUR TRUCK TODAY!

[snapper]

[rippa2k]

Installed new front carpet, replaced centre console and seats. Replaced auto window mechs on passenger and rear windows. New truck coming together nicely.

Fitted new rear springs , well I say new I bought them for my last 2.5 that died a couple of years ago and they have been sat in the cupboard since it went to the scrappy in the sky

Blanked off the egr !...now to see if it makes much difference

Ignition key got difficult to turn in the ignition switchwhen I left work. Got it going and drove home, gave the ignition barrel a dose of WD40 and that cocked it right up. Stripped the covers off the column and managed to wriggle and fiddle with the key to turn it into the Aux position then poped the barrel out. The key and/or the slide plates must be worn as there was a lot of plate showing with the key in the barrel. fettled the plates down flush as they should be, clean it all up and reassembled. Works a treat, good for another 18 years.

Regards

Yesterday Horses45 brought his truck over for a simple brake change.
Yea right!!!!!!!!!!!! Changed all the disc's and the pads. Snapped the carrier bolts in the rear, that was clever. Had to drill them out.

I hammered apart my fairlead ready to unseize it, tomorrow I'll clean everything up

[andytats]

Omg dan you have only just got round to doing that. I told you about 18 months ago that it needs sorting.

[hipo1024]

Lol yeah...I've had slightly more important things like replacing sills and body mounts etc to deal with little things like a fairlead

Fixed an oil leak on the girlfriends Bighorn. Been getting steadily worse. After jet washing the underside (which took over half an hour to get through all the oily gack) I drove it around to allow it to bleed out. Turns out the oil pressure switch had undone itself. All back together and no more leaking.
