todays progress

todays progress .....

installed stainless steel grade 8 3/4" x 2-3/4" bolts in the rear suspension... with locknuts and anti-sieze.

that is all... unless you count the part where I decided that I had been trying to press the lower control arm bushings into the upper control arms... they don't fit... so now with my recent replacement order I have 8 good upper control arm bushings...

note to self.... order more lower bushings monday

that's about all the progress I can handle this week

later
John

Try to work a nap in on Sunday if at all possible.

I know you have worked a lot more 12 hour shifts than a guy should have to lately.

Don't forget Cupid is out and about today and the Mrs. just might need some attention as well. Going down to the mother-in-laws today to let her know we haven't forgotten where she live. John, at least you are working on your truck.
