My problem is my 89 d250...dad bought it new, I feel like im a kid in it. I hate it because its not a ford. I however would just not let it go. I have to drive it though as a dd. I have to get this 46rh built to replace the 727 non od, non lockup. Hopefully it will be a little more economical and have better highway manners with the 3.55s it has. Annnddd I want to spruce up the external general delapidated motief lol

Mainly its an extra and can pull the camper short distances lol

Every single time I think about sprucing up some of the visuals on my Expedition I decide to order stuff for either the OBS or the half ton...lol. Never ending in this house. It does get the routine service taken care of regularly though.

Speaking of - it's now due for an oil change...gonna have to work that in...

Yeah that is pretty cool Nate. Seems like there is always something to work on. I was playing Plummer around the house today. And found out that tub faucet sets are expensive. Something good did happen today. My wife surprised me with a gift.

I guess my wife has has riff Raff on her Facebook and seen it and got it for me out of no where.

Last woman in my life tried to rid me of truck show/truck shop shirts.

Needless to say, she's not in my life anymore.

If you enlarge the pic, you can see it's the yellowed plastic plugs on the injectors
