Morning everyone.


At the campground, no rain this morning so I can get some things done for the end of the season. like take in the dogs canopy. and some of the lawn decorations.


Today it's Thanksgiving at the camp ground. This is were all the seasonal people make dishes and get together under the pavilion for the meal. I made a 12 inch lattice apple pie. Went to "Sam's" bought the pie just before going over to the pavilion spray some flour on my face and tell them how hard I worked to get the pie. lol


Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the weekend.

Narrowing down my search for my next truck. Looking at a 95 fun50 extended cab, and a 93 f250. Not set on either one, but definitely interested. The 95 has a remanufactured jasper engine which scares me a little bit.

Kyle I remember those being a real pita to get out, especially until I realized that there is a indexing tab attached to the I-beam. I remember thinking it was part of the eccentric and that it should spin. Ended up using heat and lots of PB blaster and a sledge. You can see it here good with the new eccentric in place:

Just looked on CL, think I saw the f150 you're looking at in Norwich. Pretty nice but I think I'd call on the '90 F150 XLT in Glastonbury, that thing looks mint! Especially with less than 100k on it: GREAT CONDITION FORD F150 PICKUP 4X4

Wow justin, looks nice! My eccentric got annihilated, the puller broke off part of the flange so I had to drill it out and chisel it out. Heres what remains of it. Also was wondering, is that new eccentric you have in there easy to remove? I pounded my new one in and I think it may be like the old one and never come out, even though I grease the heck out of it beforehand!
