Don't give up so easy....You've got 6 months and who knows what blessings might just drop out of the sky between now and then!

It would have to be a heck of a blessing! Honestly though, I'd like to try for the year after this one. I just don't see any way it will happen this year.

Thanks 75three90 and Tom!

My bearings for the carrier and my wheel spacers showed up today. Hoping the hub/wheel bearings show up tomorrow or saturday (they are coming usps). I'm going to work on the tunnel tomorrow afternoon.

Nice job on the tunnel Darin! That thing is gonna sound NICE with 5" exhaust! I can't wait to get the money to do 5" on mine. You decide on the air tank yet?

Thanks Bill! I'm going to use that one I just got off a burnt truck and mount it on the passengers front side of the bed off the floor like I mentioned to you.

I'll get back on that thread someday..

I liked that idea. Have you welded the patch in the floor yet?

Uggghhh the pic of that firewall just brings back bad memories... Idk why anyone would want to do that just for the hell of it. I went to great lengths in attempt to not do that and ended up doing it anyways. LOL Looks good buddy!

No it's not. I'm probably going to re-do mine when I pull my uppipes out next time. I need to do my patch panel a bit better.

I welded mine in the best I could and then covered the seams in the cab and under the cab with seam sealer.

That's what I'm doing. I bought a tube of seam sealer yesterday.

Thanks Travis! You're right for sure, it was a pita!
