Terry....to add, also clean your surface well. You can get what your saying from grease. Also, gun closer and slower speed will clear up dry spots. This is my first paint job ever and have learned a bit and have repainted quite a bit. LOL

I removed Thermo and have no more temp issues.

Thanks Rusty, Yes 5 on each side is correct. I have a Brookville bed so the wood is already attached. It's on small roller beds on garage floor so havent been able to get under and take a look yet. I'm sure it will make sense once bed pan is fitted over spring and aligned correctly.

Looks like the cab takes 10 bolts to mount. That leaves me with only two bolts left for bed from the body mount kit. Anyone know how many bolts and where they go on the bed? Thanks!

Don't even ask about the removing the rear spring...the grim reaper will knock on your door. LOL

I saw it sitting in the woods with stuff growing out of it and decided it needed to be brought back to life to tell me the many stories!

hit it with brake cleaner and wipe it down...you will be fine.

Spray it good with brake cleaner. No oil should be on it. Make sure you press firm when starting. Partial start will lock it up.

I have to go into the garage now and try this!

I have experienced your GAV issue. The top you turn is threaded. Mine was just unscrewing so I was turning and turning and nothing was happening. Yes, Loctite to the rescue.

Just my personal experience when doing my brakes I bought new pins figuring they were toast like most of the car. I put old and new together and exact same length yet did not actuate the brakes. The wedge was in good shape on the outside but was worn where the pin pushes. Installed new wedges...

I found it is not the pin that is worn but the wollowed out arrowhead.
