okay guys here's the repairs on the 1990 that almost left me stranded on the way back from the ATNs

how to jack up a truck redneck style
rear main removal-it was just spinning

you don't have to drop the trans to do a rear main--just slide it back


bad flywheel/flex plate one tooth gone
then we found broken exhaust manifolds


figured both broken time to go to the parts truck -headers

 

...and the one next to it don't look very healthy either!

 

both were broken Bud

 

Is it running yet?

 

nope me and Danny are the only thing running to fix this thing~~
well that and to the parts store
never spent SOO much money on a $300 truck in my life
she is taking all my good parts off the other trucks

 

well if it was a 4 cylinder - it might work
surprised it ran at all-and I wondered why it was so noisy

 

That'll do it

 

nice job. normaly I would give you a fit about jack stands AND ramps, but this is what happened to me

 

Hey Charlie...that ramp looks a little bit low on one end

 

yeah, got the rest hidden below my new blacktop.

 

man your driveway must have some hollow spots? mine is solid as a rock
thanks to a good friend with a dump truck

 

JR- that looks suspiciously like a chebby in the background in your first pic??

 

Uh oh....busted

 

yup it sure is a 1968 -was my dad's truck

 

has a chebby van as a daily driver parked on the other side
