    I have a 87 as a parts truck going to steal the panels out of them and see if they will work since they are red already. Looks like the whole passenger door is going to get swapped since the bottom the 84 is gone.

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    The carrier bearing was toasted and so was the axle joints. Figured since shaft was off went ahead and do the u joints. Also replaced wheel bearings in front hubs since they were apart. roughly $300 in parts and $150 for him to do it. I was going to do it my self but it's been raining here...

    Who can tell me why these leak?

    My Sons always name our vehicles. Currently they call mine Big Nasty. When I bought it someone covered the whole truck with rhino liner and I had a fuel leak which made the truck stink. But my youngest said I should paint it yellow and call it Big Nugget! LOL I'll have to show him your truck later.
