    I really messed up

    I JUST replaced my hard lines. Went with pre-bent stainless from Inline Tube. I took my time and went slow. Wasn't too bad.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    I don't have much of an intake. I have the metal air filter holder and no snorkel or anything else. Heat risers were deleted before I got it. Where do I look for the IAT? I replaced the thermostat and gasket today. Takin a break then gonna change the oil and replace a missing oil pan bolt.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    My 87 is pretty much all original. Everything works, mostly, but its all OLD. Been replacing stuff as I can afford to. I have a few vehicles I'm always having to work on so I have to divide the time and money up between them all. I've done the throttle body, o2 sensor, spark plugs, brake circuit...

    Options for beds - aftermarket, used, new, substitutions

    I'm wanting to get an original dual tank longbed for my 87. Anyone interested in a utility bed? I'm in central FL.

    I just did my brake lines and proportioning valve and got it all from Inline. Everything fit really well.

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    The lines and prop valve were no fun. My fingers and arms are killing me but at least its done. Now I just gotta bleed it all. Lucky for me FL has no inspections.

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    Finally got the prop valve and stainless lines. Sprung for new line clips and fasteners, too. Now to get it all on the truck. Been working hard on other projects. Had to do the rear u-joint on my school bus. Been doing the yearly maintenance on that beast. 7 gallon oil changes and 4 gallon...

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    Alright, thanks yall. I'll spend the extra money and get that valve from Inline. My next thoughts are of the rear load sensing valve. But I'll worry about that once I get done with the front stuff.

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    That's who I ordered my lines from already. I wonder if their prop valves are different than everyone else's.

    Brake Proportioning Valve

    Well the time has come to replace some 33 year old brake parts. I've got a new MC and booster. New SS hard lines on the way. Looking over the braking system I notice my proportioning valve is OLD and looks like its a bit leaky. My rears lock up really easy so i doubt this valve is working...
