elmerfudpucker Posted September 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2012 lol, I bartered for the original motor rebuild and the sounds as well, I try not to get in a hurry with things. But the next step is starting the body work, I need to get it ready for winter here in KY. Quote Link to comment

Alec 720 Posted September 19, 2012 Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 Mine doesn't have power steering at all it was made that way. Quote Link to comment
elmerfudpucker Posted September 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2012 did you just completly remove your power steering?? thinking about doing that to mine. hell no :no: wish it had power steering, you have to be moving or you get a workout, :sweat: remember 235/50R14 are some wide mothers to be turning on a stand still. :blink: While moving is no issue, it would be nice, but I want an AC setup first.

elmerfudpucker Posted October 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2012 Figured I am gonna take about a dozen LED light pods to my truck. For those that seen what a single pod could do at Canby 11 try about 8 of them on the front and a couple on the back for reverse. I figured I would shed a little light on things...

elmerfudpucker Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Well guys, I now have 2 garage door openers installed and a keypad outside operates either. The Lil Mule is now officially garage kept! :wub: I will try to finish clearing the pit and work out the pit lighting and the first oil change will be done! :ph34r: Quote Link to comment
elmerfudpucker Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Pit is clear and usable now!! Time to change the oil! Quote Link to comment
elmerfudpucker Posted November 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 Rearranged the racks and changed the oil, I will be looking in on getting heat and running a new power wire out there, busy busy busy... Quote Link to comment

All the old iron plumbing hanging from the ceiling is gone! garage door openers are up and running! Pit is ready to go! Looks like my Lil Mule's stable is ready for his long winter nap! No salty roads this year! Quote Link to comment

elmerfudpucker Posted November 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Not bad, got a lil dodge pickup to dd for now till I get the mule better protected against the elements here. Working the front gate at Shaker Village 13 miles away. and fixing up the house and collecting parts for the apartment. Other than that, all is well. 2 Quote Link to comment
elmerfudpucker Posted December 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2012 Well since I have a garage now I am tossing the idea of pulling the motor and tranny and trim. Then I want to take it to get the outside and engine bay completely soda blasted. There is a guy that does it nearby for about $100 per hour and he figures it will take about 2 maybe 3 hours tops. Then I can take it home, cook it in the garage for a couple of days then start painting it. But I want to replace the passenger fender and door and toss some bondo to smooth a few spots. I am guessing I will have to bondo it after it is blasted, right? Quote Link to comment
