Devious Dookie - '90 CC 3 3 Dually build - it begins

Fenders need a little lovin.

Should I use fiberglass resin to fix em??

yea, prep the area on the back side of the panel where the damage is, lay your resin and matte there to reinforce the area, then prep the area on the front, grind out the cracks to allow resin to get deep into the repair to bond at the base of the damage, a couple thin layers of matte over the top of that, smooth it out, and you're ready to skim it with mud

Power steering gear box is leaking. Should I buy a remained one or a salvage one? Any advise?

im on my third power steering pump from advance auto hoping the third one works so far its better than the other two were no leak on initial fill of the pump and the pulley wont just pull off with your hands.

my steering gear box is leaking as well. not bad. but it leaking...lol

i found a reman gear box at autozone for like 128.00.. or a used on for around 50 bux...
but ive seen a steering gear box reseal kit for like 30 bux on ebay... im on the fence as to what to buy as usual...

Got 2 used 225/75-16 to throw on the front of the truck $60 mounted and balanced...pumped I officially have a dually!!!

Worked on the truck cd player. Took me two hours to discover the reason why the reason speakers didn't work was a problem of a loose connection in the 6x9 box. Can we say 'should've check all the wiring first.'

Also got my breaker bar and extensions in to put the new tires on.

Sure do miss this at times!!

Does anyone know the running temp of a stock for 454? It's running about 200-210 but when I park it, it seems extremely hot but the temp gauge hasn't changed. Guess I may need to check to ensure it's reading the right temp.

Any advise?

Did the first oil change today. That stuff looked gross. Black sludge

Also, painted the new rims black. Lookin better. One step at a time.
