Happy Saturday Evening all!


I hope everyone had an oppertunity to take advantage of the great day we had today.

We (the wife and I) took two of our trucks to the local cruise last night.

and I took the 78 or big blue (the wife just coined that one) to my buddies house to work on the 56. All told big blue ran great, I put about 50-75 miles on her the past two days. Starting to feel more confidiant that the ole gal wont leave me stranded.

Where was that?

Was looking at the LandCruiser leaf springs the other day, found most of them to be cracked and shot. Cut the springs, dropped the axle out and found that basically the rear 1/3rd of the chassis is rotted.

Cutting the rotted part of the fame completely off and going to fab a new one out of square steel tube stock. Going to be tough finding time since I start back up at URI monday...

Oh well, still into the truck for less then $600 so far!

Well up till about an hour ago you couldnt have asked for a better day(stupid rain).

Spent the day welding patch panels on the 78 and just by chance, decieded to quit around 4:30, got out of the shower around 5 and it was pouring out.

pg 242 if anybody is interested.

what have you done to your truck today

Hope everyone else had a great day.
