I guess I need to cut the calipers off, theyre rusted solid and will not release unless I use a pry bar, then soon as I hit the brake pedal theyre locked up again, broke bolts and bleeders, geez ==doh

old school truck dude

Ok, I got the brakes freed up so the truck can roll freely, unfortunately the master cylinder is shot along with the rear wheel cylinders - 1 leaks and the other has a broken bleeder.

Things left to do:
1) Get brakes done
2) Hang the exhaust system
3) Get body lift bolts and install body lift
4) Crank up torsion bars and level rear
5) Cut hole in floor and piece in the tcase shifter
6) Wire up front axle
7) TIRES!! I have nine 31s Id like to trade for a set of 33s!

Ok, got new master cylinder, wheel cylinders, and lines all the way from the pvalve in and it has brakes, gotta do the exhaust, wire up front end, and plate it again . I hope the front and rear are the same ratio.. Might not be.. ;D

Is this gonna be a DD or a off road toy?

This will be a tow and trail rig. 1st comes the horse, then the cart, then the load. Its ext cab for the whole fam can wheel together is what I like, plus I shot my mouth off when it was given to me and said Id make it a 4wd and so I had to do this ==roll

Got the exhaust done 3" all the way to the back. Got the lights all workin, and it's plated and insured, this truck is street legal and I have been drivin it on the road!! woho woho woho woho woho woho woho woho

Next up is the goodies, compass, stereo, CB, etc.. Still hopin for a good deal on some tires.. Still need to cut a hole inthe floor and install the tcase shifter, also need to wire up the front axle. Not worried about doin that at the moment as I need it for a dd because the Lumina is down for the count. ;D
