Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Got the engine block to cab grounds mounted this morning. I have to remove the heater assembly to get to a hole. I must be getting better as I only smashed one finger.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
One step closer! McLeod hydraulic bearing installed because the 2466HKR Hooker Competition Headers don't work with stock arm and bellhouse. Had to clearance driver side bellhouse to clear.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
today I found the left front hubcap for my daily!
they are doing construction on a road I drive on to work, and it was extra rough yesterday. when I got to work I noticed the left front hubcap was missing I drove home, scanning the route, but did not see it... but then today I drove even slower, and out of the corner of my eye noticed it next to a fence , laying upside down and full of rain water!! so happy I don't have to bang out and paint up another one!

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
I used a Captainfab firewall bracket, CPP all in one master, Wilwood hydraulic clutch cylinder, McLeod hydraulic bearing. The chrome booster came from Tuckers Trucks either s10 or Nova base 7".
The 2466 HKR Hooker Compatition headers didn't work with arm and had to knock down driver side bellhouse to clear flange. This is why th hydraulic bearing over arm. Stock pedal. Big feet can hit all 3 if you try!

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
All the parts came with Captainfab kit. The firewall kit has a spot to drill for Wilwood and all hardware and rods came with kit.
