No secret. Sold Nate my rust free bed. Going Saturday and buying Jp,s spare duallie bed. Our ol buddy hillbillies is eventually swap some parts around and I hopefully will wind up with some conversion spacers and a few more wheels in the end... Going also to pick up a free 4.10 geared diff to pull the gears out of and after some swapping maybe with the mad matador we will get gears we both need... First I need to pull some stix out soon

Sounds like more swapping than a swingers party.

Lol, you would know I guess....

The parts look really good! You do some good work, sir. I'll be stoked to see this thing come together into something really special. It'll be a great machine for towing that new camper around too! Get it ready, camping season is just around the corner.

Speaking of that sweet camper....I ran it across town to be stored inside for the winter last night. Man oh man the 360 gasser dodge w3.55s had its hands full. I knew it would be a load for it but wow. I'm impressed by how well Clifford did especially considering he was on about 6 cylinders.

I honestly have to say building the stuff I have lately has been pretty enjoyable. I however am about done with it honestly. I'm thinking after the stranger is done I may take some time off.

Ummmmmmm, are any of the funds going towards injectors? You need those before you need two extra wheels, right?

Yep stix, Christmas, stranger are priority. Other than getting the bed that part is quite a way out. Bill has an axle swap to do but he has much bigger fish frying. I figure that's prob a year out at best. 6 tires and 4 wheels ,paint to boot.

X2. I've thought about this quite a few times. I like the look of bills truck and wouldn't mind going a similar route

I've been home for over two weeks since getting the new 'box' and haven't even started my OX. I think its the first time I've ever gone this long without messing with something on my truck. When the scan gauge gets here Fri I'll finish my gauges.


Happy Thanksgiving!
