Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Worked on my tai light turn signal with no luck. Aimed my headlights which seemed to help a little. Also painted my tailgate lettering. Still needs a little work but overall pleased.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Last night I took the passenger door apart on my '71 GMC and lubricated the window actuator and lock. I'd done the driver's side awhile back. I rarely roll the windows down but it's sure nice when they work like they're supposed to.
I zeroed the lifters again today 'cause they were clackin' AGAIN. I've done them both running and off but they keep getting noisy. New rockers, nuts, push rods, screw in studs. Bottoms of the lifters aren't worn. Original engine, 487 heads, supposedly rebuilt by the PO. Runs pretty good, good oil pressure BUT NOISY OVERHEAD, pretty DANG frustrating. Nice little truck, but it's PI$$IN' me off. I think I got them too tight today, it's running funny now.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I did nothing but drive it 100 miles or so and put $380 on the credit card. Fleet Farm however put new Cooper Discoverer H/T LT245/75R16's on it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I dreamed about it in the new Paint Jail......
I'll go by and give her a look next week . You alls are making great progress and have some fantastic rigs ! .My new Paint Guy seems unable to conceive that I want a restoration then I plan to put it right back to it's regular hard work...... All the other old trucks he's done , do the show circuit and he has photos of them with proud owners holding their trophies . It's still cheaper than buying a new base model work truck and I don't like the new ones anyways .
