Popular Post umodelnut Posted September 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2014 My U. We havent gotten ALOT done this summer. But its coming along. We got the air all figured out finally and i have ALL WORKING BRAKES, and the parking brake works! Also had my first experiences painting with a gun. I painted the front hubs myself with a gun and did most of the primer on the hood. We also changed the oil pan gasket, all new seals in the hubs and one new bearing, new gear oil, too. Still got quite a bit to go. Papa wants to repaint the cab, he doesnt like the way it turned out, and im getting a new radiator. And the hood will probably take us awhile too. And today is my last day of vacation and i was at Nana and Papas so i got it out and greased it and took some pictures. Then mom picked me up and im home for school. And yeah sorry about the sideways pictures 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maint1 Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Like your truck, I don't know if it works with all phones, but I found with mine that if I take the pictures with the volume adjust buttons facing down, then when I upload them they are correct . Hope that helps 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
