2000 GMT400 CREW CAB SFA SWAP-The Warden: Fuel leak fixed and awaiting surgery…

[GWeakland620]

Sort of.

Got the front plated in today. Got the LH front bracket on. Still need to finish up the front RH bracket.

Sort of.

It's either on the road or not.

Your jackstand picture makes me think you're in the second category.

 

[GWeakland620]

No jack stands...

 

[GWeakland620]

Not much, but I started painting the wheels tonight. Hit them with a wire wheel and shot them with some black. Just to anger Martin.

And after

 

[GWeakland620]

Finished up the wheels yesterday. Not a real big deal, but does make it look a little better.

...stance. Good looking.

[GWeakland620]

Haha, she's ready to pounce!

 

[campfire]

2000 lbs of camper in the rear would help even that back out.

 

[GWeakland620]

Yes, it would...

Current activities.

Fire!

 

[Truckman4life]

Ahhhh the smell of burning rubber!

 

[GWeakland620]

I got kinda smart.

 

[Truckman4life]

If you drill a whole bunch of holes in the rubber between the inner and outer sleeves it helps speed it up.

 

[GWeakland620]

I'm on the last one already, but I will use that next time!

 

[GWeakland620]

What's the best route to get these metal bushing sleeves out?

 

[Truckman4life]

Hammer and a chisel or an air hammer works best. You can also cut a slit with a hack saw or sawzall first .

What's the best route to get these metal bushing sleeves out?

Given today's theme, I'd vote for dynamite. HTH.

 

[GWeakland620]

I was thinking the relief cut too.

 

[skunked]

I like to hit them with a saw zaw and then an air chisel
