Took the first step towards building my shop

[Frank S]

Looks like you got the next week planned out.

Well I got the Masda engine back together and the little truck going so that was one project out of the way.
I have the tilt steering column in a 91 F250 scattered in a hundred pieces waiting parts to rebuild that.
I have the steering cylinder from my friends Prevost RV torn down waiting parts for that
And to top it off in moving the equipment trailer I put my old 93 F350 in a pretty hard pull and stacked the friction rings in the forward clutch pack so now it only had forward gears and even tries to move forward in neutral Reverse and park so going to have to pull that and rebuild the e4OD transmission. I've done enough of those transmissions to know exactly what parts are going to be needed before I pull it I might drive the Dodge 2500 under the covered area and go ahead and drop that transmission and install the front seal just to get it off of the list.
But before I do any of these if the weather and winds are even half way favorable I'm going to install some purlin tomorrow I hope.
added note with the masda this now makes the entire running gear having been rebuilt by me the diff, the tranny, u joints, new clutch and slave cylinder 4 new tires new shocks new brakes on the front the front bumper and a tow bar set up. tie rod ends and new battery so the only thing left mechanical that I have not done to it would be the ball joints and they are in good shape As I did an alignment on it when I did the tie rod ends.
the little truck should be good for another 200K now except it may need a muffler soon.
