Re: Francis the Tow Pig - 1949 GMC 250 Dually

Brakes are bled, fuse block is mounted, and a few more wiring items are taken care of. The temp sender, oil pressure sender, and fuel sender are wired. Grounds for the fuel pump and sender are in place. Relocated the pins/wires on the steering column harness to the connector that came with the speedway kit.

Yesterday I changed the oil in my 2500HD, thought I would knock out the oil on Francis while I was doing it. I keep a case of Wix 57060 filters because I have 3 vehicles already that use them. I was pretty sure the LQ4 used the same filter...wah wah wah, same size filter housing, different threads. It takes a 51042, oh well.

At this point, I'm ready to fill with oil, change tranny filter and fill with fluid, and put in distilled water/coolant. Planning to have some "more cowbell" for you later this week in the form of pictures, these you won't want to miss! Engine/trans harness should be done this week also! We are down to crunch time. Truck needs to be rolling under its own power soon!
