Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Compiled and cleaned a bunch of engine parts after a 3 year haitus things were scattered here and there. Short block's been together for about a year and now I'm just a timing chain and oil pump shaft away from having it ready to finish re-assembling. I hope to have engine finished and transmission ready to go on my off days next week...

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Drove 'ol blue to church in the evening and as I got home I pulled up to the garage door and thought I would see if I had high beams,I knew I had low beams ... Turned out I had NO beams .. so I started checking it out, had power out of the dimmer on both sides when tested high and low .. so checked at the 2 wire bulkhead by the horn and had nothing .. got out my small sandblaster with the spot nozzle on it and blasted the corrosion off the terminals at the firewall and dimmer .. finally got them working and noticed the wire was hot to the dimmer switch ... Checked the bulbs and sure enough they were halogen ...lucky when I installed the relay for the radiator fan I installed a row of 3 from an 88 sierra .. So I had 2 spares .. so I figured it was time to do some wiring since I had already run the grounds and power for the relays it was a 10 minute job ...........

Changed the oil and cruised around. Also made me some iPhone wallpaper using a little app called Colorsplash.

Talking Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Finished connecting the e-brake cable, then moved on to installing the carpet.
Now putting in the center console (40/20/40, 2006 silverado 1500 seat). Finished up the day with putting in the passenger side seat. Still have driver side left, but I have to save something for the next day.
