I took Tuckerred out on about a 40 mile jaunt to stir the fluids, charge the battery and also filled the fuel tank to prevent condensation issues while it sits during the bad weather.
The last time I had fired the truck up was to go to Athens on I think the 13th of November for a Georgia Fanatic lunch, so it had set up for a full 8 weeks and I was getting concerned that the battery might go flat after all of the issues fellow Fanatics seem to have with batteries, and it is not on a tender. Spun over like a champ, you would have thought I had driven it yesterday. I have assembled all of the front-end pieces I think I'll need to put on Mike's front shocks soon, then my springtime project is to take the whole truck down to Mike
@Dragon2U to put in stepper motors and change my IC faceplate to a red one. Possibly fix my right door latch too. Does anyone know if it is worthwhile or even possible to replace the stepper in the volt-meter? Generally, it will be either pegged at 0 or indicate 16 volts (not pegged), though randomly I'll get what looks right at about 13 to 14V.
Bad weather coming in the next few days if the weatherperson is correct.
