No baffles in the tank or did they rot out? I see what may have been the remains of some in there. Yup, patch it and seal it and just keep your eyes peeled for one to pop up. I am guessing it was a more or less universal tank for all of the GMC trucks? Or was it specific to that truck?

See, I AM good for something.

Are you still going for the original tank or a reasonable substitute?

I have followed this thread from Day one and have always advocated the use of the truck as it was originally purposed. That said, I am also a wise arse who likes to joke around a lot so if I have offended anyone in the process I apologize. I will make no more comments on this thread unless asked...

I'll bet the Chaplain did not get a copy of that video either after blackmailing PB on his New Yuck trip.rofl And no, I did not get a copy either. I will see one soon enough.

Hey! I know dos guyz

I owned a 4x4 shop so yes, it did get taken care of as soon as I got back. As far as the drill, ask any of the guys in the shop here where I work, If they were reading this they would all be laughing, pointing at me and nodding yes.

Easy there my friend, I said it was extenuating circumstances! I have probably 30 plus spindle nut sockets in the garage. Those torques are much higher than what I am used to dealing with on light duty trucks, with them it is in the 45 ft/lbs. range. And I learned about using all three points on...

In the picture of the bearing nuts on the truck bed rail are the ones with the collar also threaded? Lock nut probably? Never saw one like that. I have to admit I have used the punch method to remove spindle nuts in the past but the circumstance were a bit different. Middle of nowhere with a...

That parking brake cable is scary looking, Is that on the list of individually delivered parts too?

WHAT are you doing on the computer in the middle of the night while on vacation in New Yuck?!!!!! Don't worry, Zout will take care of it till you return.

I am beginning to think you are ordering stuff one piece at a time for a reason.:twisted::twisted::twisted:

You, sir, are on a roll! rofl You will never be on the "preferred PM picture" list now! You will just have to wait for "K" pictures like the rest of us.

He will going right past me, within a couple miles at that on the the turnpike or 295 depending on whether he is paying tolls or not. It is going up to the 90's all the way through to middle of next week.

:funny::twisted:

You should be hittin' the road by 1400 hours, have a safe trip.

I can see that Zout's A/C guy is catching the green disease. The picture phase is always where it starts. He will be hanging around the garage sweeping floors next and then he will be at the auctions. I see it coming.

And once you start driving it and learn the quirks you will have it starting on half a turn.:-P

Bingo! I try to explain to guys nowadays about asbestos brakes and they tell me that they have not been made from asbestos since the 70's. I say yea, and when do you think those NOS brakes are from? And some heavy truck brakes were made from asbestos going well into the 80's. I have a five...
