Very nice skeeter. That truck is pretty sweet. I'm not typically a fan of aftermarket steering wheels, but I must say that I do like that one.

 

I'm right there with you. This is one of the few aftermarket steering wheels that I've seen that really look sharp.

 

Evening gents, I am about to use a 27/32 drill bit on my Bronco knuckle to clean it up and test fit a bushing. Might have to go up to a 7/8, should not be to bad I am almost there already.

 

I don't know Rich, a 32nd" is almost a millimeter, pretty big step, might be the one to watch out for lol.

Going to Edmonton this weekend, one of those rumor mill trips. Buddy Chris is back in Ontario closing their house and his wife and daughter have never been to Edmonton before so that makes me the tour guide. First vacation in over 3 years and when I get back there should be a half dozen stories and soap operas going on in other peoples brains, that'll give me the opportunity to seperate the wheat from the idiots.

Changed up the program this week and it's pre winter construction, neighbour had some lumber that he sent my way, nails and all. Beggars can't be choosy this week.

 

ok, so....

The vacuum canister is only needed on trucks with vacuum actuated a/c? i dont have one, and want to know if i need one. my heater doesnt look like it has any vacuum lines to it.

 

I play with wrenches:

 

very cool.
I can already envision christmas lights installed.

 

Very cool and different. I envision a propane bottle hooked up so you can make flames come out mouth the nostrils...and at least red lights in the eyes.

Off to the parade with the Hillbilly-Bug and grandson.

 

Seats- From what year to what year will fit without modification? 73-96? or earlier years too?

 

I think as far as back as a 69...but where do you find a 69 seat that is in good enough shape to swap in without doing new upholstery?

 

yeah. A guy i know does upholstery, asked me about a split back from a 79.

 

A 73-79 split back front bench/folder from a Super Cab or a 78/79 Bronco will bolt right in.

 

Couldn't ask for a better night to watch the lunar eclipse.

 

Yup, that sure was a big 'ol moon last night! The eclipse was different but not all that impressive. Still neat. Building a log cabin hunting camp every day and came home in the dark and happened to look up after wondering why it was so light out.

 

i glanced up at the blood moon last night, as my truck was loaded on a flat bed going to its new owner. Yep, sold it. Too much money needed to be put into it just to get that little 1" sticker.
Plus, my plans are to move to texas next year, so why hassle a california truck?
