Re: Redds TURD!

LoL yea its a good job. I work for the Texas Department of Transportation. I hang all the signs up on the highways and such. Reason I have signs all over my garage walls.

But worked good amount of the day. Would of got more done but 2 of my co-workers kept stoping by and hiding out...

Got the firewall pretty much done. Just lacking a few more filler plates. Ran out of time talking with a local minitruck guy that stoped by.

Pics......
One of my sign trucks


Safety First!!!!!!!!!!!!




Cleaning!


And the real progress

Re: Redds TURD!

roll the windows down and hope it doesnt rain.

but ive noticed if you put your arm vertically right before the b-pillar, it deflects a lot of air inside and helps big time.

Re: Redds TURD!

didnt realy work on it since sunday... built my new valves yesterday.. mounted them and replumbed them.
1/2in asco fills 3/8 smc dumps for the front
3/8 asco fills 3/8 smc dumps for the rear

This is a pic of the drivers side valve block. Theres another one mounted on the passager side. Im waiting for some 90 3/8 to 1/2 ptc for the rear valves. Nfamus didnt have any in stock yesterday.

All i need to do is get another gauge since im running 8 valves now and some air line for the gauge
