I finally got to drive the truck today and it was so worth the wait.
So far only one gremlin with the brakes being too tight.
Called Hot Rods Auto in Simcoe and got the truck in right at closing time.
Rod stayed late and fixed it in about an hour.
The brake pedal rod was about .080" too long and was partially applying the brakes, pulled it out dressed it up and back on the road again.
Went to Port Dover for a cruise and I could put my hand on the caliper and the drum. Problem solved!!!
After not charging me anything for the work, he even followed up with a couple texts to make sure everything was ok.
This is in Port Dover. I forgot to suck my gut in...Lol
this is at Timmies in Simcoe.
Lays frame, lays rocker, lays rubber.
