Vacation: Monday & Tuesday

  • Heater valve linkage hooked up - rod is all the way in... may need to revisit and add some threads to the rod
  • Cleaned up wires under dash - used what I thought was the original brake light power wire - blinkers come on steady when you step on the brake now - needs the old wire back
  • Affixed shift quadrant with mounting tape - temporary
  • Cut down and affixed the shift pointer with mounting tape - temporary?
  • Evaluated neutral/backup switch options - no conclusions yet - attempting to modify the one supplied to work with my HydraMatic by eliminating the 2nd and 3rd start positions and makeing new backup terminals
  • Right caliper mounted with hose
  • Bent up hard brake line for right front caliper
  • Adapted rear brake 1/4" line, bent to point up by the firewall, cut and flared
  • Attached 10 lb residual valve a 1/4" line inlet
  • Mounted combination valve to frame on the inner side, a few inches back from the steering cradle - there is a raised part on the frame there where the two rails become one boxed section
  • Cut and attached intermediate hard line between combo valve and rear residual valve - so the rears are plumbed to the valve now

Didn't seem like I accomplished that much but I guess I did.
