I put some new tow hooks and lubed up the gears for the recline on the seats..... nothing specail, but things I've been meaning to do.

If I go to town today, I'll buy a new battery cable (starter to solenoid), and hopefully I'll get it started again....if that's not it, then it's time for a new starter...

I hate electrical gremlins. Just wouldn't turn over one day...




How's your truck coming along?

I replaced the battery cable ends on the F150 while I was home. I used the expensive gold plated ones ment for car audio. They worked out well because the cable locks in with an allen screw like an electrical plug. They had 2 big hole for main power and 4 small hole for other things. My winch cables are now connected to the battery alot neater and more secure.

Man, today went by slowwwwwwww.

I got the cable, but it started raining before I got home, so it'll have to wait until tomorrow. I really HOPE it does the trick.

Maybe it will work out for you. And get off your tale and get something done. How can you wheel it if it won't start?
