    Great content. I had a joint replacement last summer and I understand mobility issues and working in the garage. Respect all you are getting done.

      Thank you. I kinda get seized up during the summer with too many things going, but I’m trying to get back into it this winter.

    I know this is late to the game, but you are using the tack rag wrong. You need to unfold it completely and make a very loose ball. Otherwise it can leave some of the tacky liquid on the surface.

    Yeah sorry to hear about your fall, glad to see you up and around the dash turned out awesome great color, looking forward to more videos 😀😀oh yeah I had a question my 55 truck is going to need rockers and on one the step, would you say to do the rocker first and make sure it fits the door bottom then move in to the step, just wondering if there’s an order on the metal work thanks Russell, Mike

      I guess it depends on if you’re ordering a piece if it has the step and Rock are included it might be a one step process if they sell that piece.

    Hey Brother, Trucks looking great! I fell and Broke My hip the same way. The doctor told me I had to use a walker for 2 months but I barely used it. I'm glad I didn't mess it up or he would have had to wrap wire around it to hold it in place. Stay well my friend. We are riding out Hurricane Idalia now. Fun stuff.

    Hey glad to hear you’re recovering! We’re over here being greedy with your time and you were down and out. We actually got caught up with you just about on our own chassis swap. Quick questions: what made you change out your brake booster, what parts on the chassis did you end up replacing preventatively and what Ididit did you go with? Praying for you to have a speedy recovery!

    • @russellmcconahay7297
      @russellmcconahay7297  11 місяців тому +1

      I’ll try to address these questions one at a time. The brake booster was a kid that had a pedal that fit 57 and bolted in right where I wanted it and I could get rid of all of the ABS stuff.

    • @russellmcconahay7297
      @russellmcconahay7297  11 місяців тому +1

      Parts are replaced was the power steering pump and the fuel pump. Other than that I’m going with what I have.

    Did you say what compressor you’re running? We’ve been debating if it will be us that paints the truck or not.

      I was finally able to remember your question when I was out in my shop it’s a Campbell Hausfeld 220 probably a 30 gallon but I do not know if it’s gonna be enough. I find it running a lot when I’m trying to spray I feel like I run out of air.
