Re: Project Family Chummins

I've made a little progress on the Dodge, I'm trying to get it up to where its dependable for daily duty for now.

I changed the fuel filter, tightened up the tie rod adjuster and track bar (hopefully that will decrease the amount of slop), removed the brake controler, and just got a decent set of front tires (and a spare).

I tried to charge the A/C system. Good news is I could jump the low pressure switch and the A/C clutch/compressor engaged. Bad news is there is a hole in the low pressure line, so I have a new one of those coming. Hopefully I can change that out, charge it up and have A/C.

I also have a kit to fix the "killer dowel pin" and new thermostat (truck was running about 140 degrees going 75mph, so I'm not even sure if it has a thermostat in it right now).
