Found this poor guy asleep. At first I thought he was on his phone. Had a Co worker go wake him up.

Did he get in trouble or did he not get reported. Many places, that's grounds for immediate termination.

The scary part is that he's that sleepy on heavy equipment. That could turn ugly. No harm no foul, maybe.....
 
By now, everyone has heard about the awful events at the AME church in Charleston last night. It appears that they caught the guy up in Shelby, NC a few hours ago. Man what an awful thing that guy did. I'm glad they found him alive.

We have a branch location just down the street from the church and the media was so thick, our staff couldn't even get to the parking lot, let alone the branch. We were not able to open for business today. It sounds like it's a madhouse of media frenzy down there.
 
Camping at Devils Fork state park this weekend. We'll be on a pontoon boat on Saturday. I was told there were waterfalls and some islands to check out. Anyone got suggestions?

Also if anyone wants to say hi hit me up. Taking the wife's car instead of the 62. Looks like it's time for a 2f or small block.

It is automatic termination for us full timers. This individual works for kimura. They are trying to handle all of our logistics needs. Not doing too well. I could have gotten him fired but chose to let kimura handle it. What's so bad is that his "coach" honked the horn on the Tugger and he did not even flinch.

I go to my new job Sunday night. 6pm to 6am. Let's hope I'm not the next one they find.
 
If you are thinking small block, think right past it and go straight to an LSX (Vortec) A little more wiring and a lot more benefits
 
The truck above is AWD which means the output shaft of the trans would have to be swapped out with a 2WD output shaft in order for the adapter to the split case to work.

So if you get a 2wd it adapts easier?

This is what happens when you have a trip planned and your cruiser is down. Lol

Wife's CX 7 with the hitch carrier got a workout.
 
I bet that smoothed out the ride for the back seat passengers ;)
 
Driver side knuckle started leaking this weekend on a road trip. I think my diff breather is clogged and over-pressurizing everything. I'm going to replace it all with new hose and filter and delete the OEM flapper box after work today. I hope this remedies the situation.

Also, I have new O2 sensors on the way. I had a feeling they were going bad and I finally threw the codes for it. I went with Denso over the Toyota branded sensors. Rock Auto had them for 1/3rd the cost. I couldn't justify the cost for Toyota brand. Even if I have to replace these every 10000 miles, I'd still break even.
 
I start my new position at work tonihht. 6pm to 6am. Going to be a long night. On a positive note we wear long sleeves because once the sun goes down it gets a little chilly in the lab.:D

Good luck. That was one of the few advantages of working nights. Hang in there as it's tough on the fam especially with homeschooling.

Doesn't Toyota use Denso anyway for sensors like that?

Yeah they do. If you want an interesting read, Google "Toyota parts manufacturing and suppliers". Same deal with bearings and Koyo. It really is an interesting research subject subject if you're a Toyota nerd.
 
Got the diff breather all swapped out. The old flapper box was really clogged up. I put air on it and it was struggling. I'm hoping this was my issue. I really don't feel like redoing my axle.
