I've got some tube stuff I'd like to build too. Namely something on the front end to protect me a bit in case Jay or someone else starts hurtling backwards towards me on a slippery slope...

Thanks

just found my lordco reciept with core charges for Dodge calipers, should be able to buy a complete exhaust and an aluminum radiator with my refund. Forgot how much the core charges were for those stupid things!!

| LOL yeah, i'd love a 55 but the ol' ball and chain would kill me, especially when house hunting, and i can't even get around to finishing this project!!!
You're the guy with the space, besides, dump the boler and get a cool wagon!...

I started the 42 the other day and as it rattled, I realized it was 3 weeks since I'd driven it, so clearly something aint right with my truck situation.
Plus, sometimes it's kinda fun to lob hand grenades/trade ads out there and see what blows back..May have to do that soon just for shits and giggles.
I'm gonna get the boler usable first tho, and see how I like it. Having a mobile "whoops, drunk again" pad to sleep in sounds kinda nice to me.
Easier to sell when it's done anyways. You've never seen such a useless pack of buggers as those who look at a boler that's for sale. Even a freakin screwdriver is a foreign concept to them.

| Well, looks like the "labs hi-steer" isn't gonna work with my oilpan and diff issue, so its up for sale if anyone is looking for a histeer set-up.
Got some goods from Mr.Marlin today. Gonna try the 25mm pin and bearing upgrade, defenitely burly compared to stock!

I will defenitely take you up on the SST knuckle tool, thanks!

| Absolutely no progress done to the truck, except for a start on a new shop where it'll hopefully finally get finished for winter wheeling season!

| Cool!
Pro tip: add some steel to the floor for pulling, building etc. Also, I still have your overhead ballasted hid death lights I promised you.
