Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3

Got my 5 minutes a day. Took about 5 minutes to figure out how to install the gennie shifter kit. The instructions leave a lot to be desired. I'm happy I didn't have to invent this contraption, but I'm still a bit miffed it costs almost $300 for a couple of bits of metal and some springs.

For your application, you'd need a pretty long brake. I believe I'm using 16GA sheet. I can't imagine using 20. That seems too thin for body work.
