97 4.0 Bringing new life. And spine.
So last week I got a great deal on a 97, 4.0 4wd single cab. Now the old man had a clutch master cylinder problem and a Crack in the frame by the cab mount. So I figured I could fix the crack no problem. Little did I know
I got beat. So I put the truck on the road, waited till 2 am and drove it the 27 miles to my house, sweet talking it into gears and when I had to stop, get out push and turn the key with it in second.
(I know I am terrible to my truck.) Got it home and started the tear down.
Took the cap and bed liners out.
And I started to tear into it.
Then I found the rot....this is the bed by the cab.
Got the bed off. . . .
This is the crack I could see.
Then the shock....
So I have been tearing down.
Took the Lund visor off
My clutch problems....
Tear down was pissing my off to no end and started throwing tools so I cooled down by doing some thing positive.
And this is where I am at. More to come.
