    I took the steering box (including the flexible coupling) off of my 77' parts truck, to replace (tomorrow) the leaking one on my 72'.

    I drove it today to the store to get some wasabi coated roasted green peas. I ate that whole can in one day... regret it!

    and then...

    I had to give my truck to my friend to watch it for the next two weeks. I shall miss my truck when i'm across the pacific.

    i acquired two stock steelies and put them on the front, and moved the wider Chrome rims to the rear. looks less farmtruck ish now
    Put a different Alternator in it. the one that was in it was making horrible squeeky noises.
    vacuumed the hell out of it. installed recently acquired Third Gen bench seat. hmmmm, oh yes and took out/ threw away stock centre console.. :D

    if you were referring to the center console then, it was pretty rough. i still got it, if anyone wants it, its in my parts pile.

    Bring it to the meet. Somebody may be able to use it. I know Curt is looking for one, but he is having issues with his truck right now so it may not be there. A few hiluxs and a stout still will be though :D

    ill try my best to be there but its quite a trip for me, and the deciding factor is if i can acquire funding in time. i have a bed full of "recovered parts" that i want to see used. i went to go get the taco bench i ve been wanting, and someone snagged it. but i got a thirdgen seat, and a bunch of misc parts... half of which i cant use but i know some one can. and hey, im kind of a parts whore
    :eek::eek:
    or and sorry for the thread jack guys.

    I popped the hood to make sure the radiator I got matches the one in there. It does. :waytogo:
    I also checked the plug wires and found the #3 boot not seated on the plug. I'm half hoping the way it was running wasn't just because of that :eek: if that's all it is though I'll get over it :p
