finding a concrete block to stand on while working underneath the hood (easy)

taking off the oversized K&N round filter (easy)

removing the linkages (easy)

unscrewing the hoseclamps for the fuel supply line (easy)

pulling off pcv and dizzy vac lines (easy)

taking off the 4 bolts with a half inch socket and a few extensions (easy)

having to crawl up into the motor and reach behind the carb to unbolt the power brake booster fitting with a 5/8" wrench that I'm sure I put way too tight last time I was working on the truck (kinda a bitch)

i always use a clamp and screwdriver to hold my boosters on... point the dealie to the outside makes its easier too

what dealie?

I try and use hard brakes lines in every application on that truck. My luck is I would drive over a cedar tree and it would rip off the rubber lines.

I still need to redo the grill to make it so I can run over trees with ease.
