Gsmblue Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 When you start working on the house I'll be you hear it fire up and she'll be gone. Picked up nre wheels and tires on Craigslist for $400! 15"x 7.5" with a 5x5.5" lug patern. The tires are 235/75R15 Toyo open country H/T's They are smaller than the 31x10.5 on there, hopefully it will look ok! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a bad price for new tires and those wheels - and I love the wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gsmblue Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 Lol! Indeed! Fat thumbs... Impulse buy of the day: New brake booster! Much better feel. I went in to buy new front pads and rear shoes and just asked about the booster.. Might change out the rear slaves depeneding how they look. This is all happening because of the new wheels.. i am pulling the old ones off and it gives me a chance to do the rest of the brakes.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say, these trucks are like onions. You keep peeling and crying, but soon you'll have onion rings. Or a bloomin' onion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to take the time to enjoy it.😎 The wife has a friend in town this week from Germany, they plan on riding the Bronco everywhere! I call that a success!

Gsmblue Posted June 4, 2018 Author Share Posted June 4, 2018 You, sir, have succeeded! And it will only get better with the improvements you have planned. Well done! Thanks Gary! I had no “oomph” in me today. Work was a slog... I did change out the oil sender in Espy.. now I am much happier with life in the middle of the dial!! Small step, but now when I am driving I won’t be staring at that dial.. Really wanted to do the rear cylinders but did not have the energy...
