Joey Mack Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago Ok.. so now i see why you have to separate them.. A reciprocating saw will make quick work of that. I think someone posted that as well. Glad to see you working on it. I still cant work on my old truck because all of our daily drivers need attention each weekend.. The blazing hot temps here kill my motivation.. Almost forgot... I still work a full time job.. 👍 1 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/70/#findComment-579344 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted 6 hours ago Author Share Posted 6 hours ago Yeah, weather is the same thing here. I just get up early and get out there today. I had to go to the gym first and then I figured I might as well eat lunch first then it got very hot but I went out and messed with it for a while I’m trying to get them all ready by Monday morning I’ll take them all down Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/70/#findComment-579356 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mowerman Posted 5 hours ago Author Share Posted 5 hours ago Don’t know if you read the part about moving the power steering box end cap just slightly now I’m anxious to jump back on. It should be a part very soon. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/70/#findComment-579359 Share on other sites More sharing options...
