Test Drive & Tying Up Loose Ends #ETCGDadsTruck
This is (Episode 9) of the #ETCGDadsTruck Series.

I shot videos of the Rear Suspension Drop, Differential Rebuild, and Rear Disc Brake Conversion on my Dads truck pretty much at the same time. As a result, I wasn’t able to do proper test drives at the end, or during each of the videos I just mentioned.
There were also some other loose ends like my U bolts, and torquing the rear suspension that weren’t covered in the previous videos. Hence the reason I decided to make this video.
So if you had questions about some of the previous videos in the #ETCGDadsTruck video series, this video may help give you some clarity.

Video Title: Test Drive & Tying Up Loose Ends #ETCGDadsTruck -ETCG Video Description: After all the work was done on the rear end of the truck, I took it out for a test drive. I discovered some things that need attention, and also learned how well the lowered suspension works. I also hope this video answers some questions you might have had. #ETCGVideo #ETCGDadsTruck Thumbnail: http://www.ericthecarguy.com/images/Youtube_Thumbs/april/2019/Test_Drive__Tieing_Up_Loose_Ends_ETCGDadsTruck.jpg
