ok .. so a little more today ..
I ordered a new fuel pump bracket , and even a diff vent

continued working on getting the inside clean .. I "reduced" the vaccuum hose , so I could vac up the some of the pieces that just didnt want to come out ..



I was able to pull some of the larger chunks out .. and then "suck" up the smaller debris .


and one more air blast , and wash , and it'll be good to go ...

also ..

finished the repair on the brake line ..



and also got the new shackles and bushings on .. LOTS of neversieze , and ..WOW the suspension actually works like it should now ..




and also had to drill and tap some broken bolts .. did them on the frame , and also the fuel filler tube ..



all washed and cleaned up .. I started the POR-15 treatment








truck is now sitting in the shop over the weekend to "dry out" from the last clean and wash .. so MONDAY .. I'll be doing the frame .
