Hi fellow Stovebolters....

Been cuttin and fittin...had some 1980's ish S10 front bumper brackets laying in my metal pile...I saw that I had a mysterious hole in the bottom of one of my rear truck fenders...the other one was rotted off...so I got to hammering on it...

running boards are all bolted on....

my awesome driverside fender...

had to show it....

I was getting really busy tonight too...I had to set the toe on the front axle...it was 1/2" toed in...not what I was looking for...so I took everything apart...turned the passenger side tie rod in just about all it would go in...went to put the steel wheel bake on...stripped another stud on my nifty CPP disc brake set up that I bought last winter...

#1 & #2 stud shown here

I got out the good ole "JB" Weld and I am praying it will hold...if not...I will be ordering another pair of bearings and go back and use the stock steel hubs that came with the axle I had...

If you do buy a CPP kit...be very cautious with it...the design seems ok but darn...the calipers suck big time as does these aluminum "upgraded" hubs...

my 2 cents...

P.S. cant wait to get it done...
