New rear shocks installed. The last 2 sections of original brake line were replaced. With my wife's help, we bled the brake system. Ready for a test drive, but it wouldn't start. Wasn't getting fuel due to a clogged line. Got everything squared away Monday evening and went for a quick drive. It stops and the parking brake holds on a slope. Brakes, shocks and king pins are now done. Next we'll need to address a small leak in the radiator and replace the fuel lines, but the truck is driveable now.
