good morning Nate.

 

Good Morning Darin. Am I wrong in thinking that today is the day for your axle swap?

 

Nope, you're right. Just getting ready to head to the shop.

 

I missed my phone call last nite, but he should be here around noon, give or take

 

Well good luck on the swap! It sounds like you have a good head start, so I would imagine that will help a lot. Hopefully everything goes smoothly. The TTB seems like a real pain to work on compared to a solid axle, IMO. I can understand keeping it though.

 

It is a pain compared to a 60, cost vs. need doesn't work for me since mine is in good shape. Honestly if you can find one for a grand around here, it would be a steal.

 

Yeah for that kind of money, the cost vs need definitely lands on the side of "cost", lol. I got $850 for the one I sold a few months ago. The guy got a good deal, but it needed to be gone over real well before it would be in good enough shape to go into that guy's truck. He had a cherry '97 F-250 with less than 80,000 original miles on it. That thing was immaculate!

 

Good morning Nate and Darin

 

Morning Mike!

 

Mornin Mike, Darin and Nate

 

LOL, Morning Todd. This is starting to sound like the Waltons! "Goodnight Johnboy!"LOL.

 

Alright guys I'm out. I have to go figure out how to load a F-350 chassis onto a trailer with no axles under it and nothing with which to pick up up onto the trailer...

 

Morning Todd

 

jack up the frame till it is higher than the trailer. slide a 4X4 under it, with a log on each side to hold it up. do the same on the other end. back the trailer under, jack the frame up off the wood and knock the logs out.

 

Hello all. Good luck with the swap Darin. Looking forward to some pics.
