What did you do for your GMC today?

[lizziemeister'sV6]

Installed new radiator support bushings - still had the original mounts since 1965 and the bolts unbolted with an overnight Blaster spray soak and a breaker bar Couldn't figure where the squeak was coming from up front - found out where.

I dropped the 35 pound gearbox box on my face, clean up the blood and called it a day, my brother is stopping to help later. my wife got home and had a fit, I told her she missed another chance of cashing in the life insurance policy again.

Glad you’re okay…. Hey, chicks dig scars, so not all bad.

I think I need to replace or build my gearbox, because about ten years ago I used up all the threads within the slack adjustment screw. Now that we’re in AR full time, I need to make this steering gearbox a priority with all the wonderful curves.

Thanks for keeping us posted on your efforts.

I have a local shop that did the rebuilding for $160 this included a new rag joint and pitman arm. They only work on old stuff before 1990. MY pitman arm was shot as the pivot was wobbling badly.
