well i finally had some free time to work on the red tide the wife and i washed and waxed the 80 today and decided to get rid of the port installed luggage rack on the roof. looked over the sunroof drains and found the the rear drivers side drain was disconnected so Jen and i dropped the headliner and fixed that.
after all that we put the Arb on and the adjustable panhard bars in dident have time to drop the winch in tho

did some work to the engine today first scraped the block down for the head gasket then took the needler to the side of the block and got rid of any rust so i can get some paint on it
later on Rick and i went into checking all the talerences on the bearings and piston rings, all the piston rings were in standard clearance spec so we moved on to plastigaging connecting rod bearings and crankshaft bearings which were all in standard clearance spec... um WOW  considering this engine has 260,000 original miles on it withe the original head gasket yah we were both amazed at the condition of the engine
the next step is to get'er back together this week and drop it in 
should be a good 5th year anniversary present for the wife

Not to mention removing all the hackery in the rear heater circuit. That truck has a nice long life ahead of it.

It's going to take a while to put on another 260k miles.
Can't wait to see the finish product.
