Hmm...

I see a new rack, a trim packer, a CB, and 2 pairs of spotlights! I'm linking what you got going on there.

A few projects coming to a big beautiful head.

Steering rack (reman'd, hence the black paint)
2 sets PIAA's for the new shrockworks to come.... (any day now.... surely)
OTRATTW switches
Blue Sea fuse box... Prolly gonna throw a 60amp relay on it
Trim Packer to level out my Ttec Ultimate
SS Ttec lines
Midland Cb and firestik hookups

Thought this might get somebody going. :eyebrows:

That is quite the purchase. I hope to see pics posted when it is all said and done.

BTW, did you ever figure out your braking issue? I was throwing ideas out there hoping one might stick.

Very nice dude! I can't wait to see the bumper install! Let me know if you need help with that man

Thanks buddy, I have been working that new MC and it feels better... but still needs some pumps. I'm kinda with you on it being some air in the MC. I will try to bleed it again today when I put my SS lines on.

Cool, I appreciate the enthusiastic offer. We'll see when it comes in. i was gonna call today to find out if it was even close to being finished. Cheers!

I'd put the new brake lines on first and go from there. I do remember someone on YT who lost braking power while driving; he had to use the emergency brake to get home. It turned out that both his front lines had failed.

Also visibly check to see if there is a steady stream of bubbles coming out of the brake line(s) to indicate a possible vacuum leak.

Good luck.

Thanks for all of your suggestions Little Caes,
Today I put on the new steering rack and the front brake lines. Got to the back and started replacing some of my broken studs that i have accumulated. 2 on one side, 1 on the other. When I took apart my driver side drum, a pin fell out the back and the drum was under tension when I removed it. I opened the valve and let it suck air, which let me slide it off. There were two plates and a spring on the inside from the brake shoes that a reattached while replacing my stud. Grease behind the drum on the other side.
Seems like my troubles keep multiplying.
I may try to clean out the grease tomorrow and install my new rear line. We will see what happens when I rebleed everything.
