Today it took about 30 minutes to get the drum off, and I started trying to adjust it down, then I looked up and saw that the wheel cylinder things are stuck out really far. What...

    Correction, there WAS a half inch nut with a spring. I put WD-40 on it, and a wrench. It gave a little bit, so I backed it off the other way and rocked it back-and-forth. Felt like she was loose so I gave her a little more and snap! Spring and broken bolt fall to the bottom of the door. I just...

    Tired of the vent window not staying open cause it’s still 89 degrees here so first I drilled the rivet out and put a nut and bolt there hoping it would have more tension but that didn’t work and now I got a huge ****** bolt there. Maybe I’ll put a rivet back. Bent a big ass nail and painted...

    Yeah by tjhe time I'm pressing the clutch in to shift to second, the minivan next to me has already pulled away, and shes driving normally. Its an antiquated system, and it'll be more fun to drive when I dont have to shift

    Yeah manual transmission is what I meant, not necessarily the means of shifting. The manual is the problem

    Another 90 miles today. Man, this 3 on the tree has to GO. GREAT for tooling around the farm or old town square, horrible for trying to not get run over by modern cars. This thing is going on the chopping block next summer

    2 different oreillys and found a hose, long straight trimmable thing, 100 bucks but knew the manager so she gave me someone’s shop discount, still 57 dollars but oh well needed it and it’s a gates I think. I realized that I don’t need to wire up an indicator light to make sure I still have...

    I screwed the fuse block back to the wall last night, the angle of the dangle must be correct because the lights are still working. I tried jiggling all the wires and everything and it’s staying on. Thinking about wiring up a small indicator light in the cab that I can watch, I can run my lights...

There’s a guy I talked to earlier that sells new fuse blocks he makes just for these trucks for $120 that separate the dash...
