I rode mine, replaced the angels with shinkos. Repaired a caliper. Then rebuilt it to try to stop it from dragging. Then replaced it for the same reasons. Of course to no avail.
Replaced water pump on my friends c10, did a valve adjust on it as well. Replaced his tires, brakes and wheel bearings.
Not really what I would call a fun filled winter but productive just the same.

That is the truth. I got my C14 in late October. Trailered it back from TN. Put it in the garage until lately.....

If you shut down and leave the key in the run postion you will kill the battery.
I use the kickstand to shutdown and have forgotten to turn off the key.
The mod can be found at the cog-online.org website
