What did you do to your truck today?

Truck had its second major failure since I've owned it. First time way back when was when my rear gears went out. This time is TBD but its down for the foreseeable future. Head gasket or something with the water pump maybe. Coolant was everywhere so I can chase down where its coming from yet. Waiting for a friend to come give me a pull back to the house

Finally got the power steering pulley all the way in on last weeks steering pump exchange. I still have a persistent small oil leak but maybe next week I will address this on my 1990 Ford F-150.
It seems to have a cross over tube at the rear of the heads and that might be the leak. Gotta get a set of ramps to get under it. If any of you have had to change this cross over feel free to advise. The book doesn't cover it.

Posted this in the pics thread; meant to put it here. Argh...
Took the fugly tool box out, and find out the nice black bedliner is a hack job from some kind of rice burner truck. It's too short, and the guy cut about 4" off underneath the tool box. So, ... out comes the bedliner too!!! Might remove the bumpers because both are bent, and weld up some pipe. Either that or go old school with wood log bumpers! LOL :P
