Good morning guys.

I am almost finished with my dads in-law apt.
All that needs to be done is some trim paint, counter tops, and shower door.

Morning,

About time for weather above 40 degrees.

This coming weekend is our pot luck camping diner. Everybody brings things to eat. All kinds of home made goodies. Then there is my hand at cooking wings. I go to Sliders order a Guinness for me and 34 mild wing and 24 hot wings to go. They are put on the table and gone. Goes good with beer. You know camping and beer are synonymous.

Andy you will have to show pictures when the interior is done. This has been quite a project. A lot of work has gone into it.

You got sunburn today!?

Side note, saw that Onus sold the ZF5 transmission, was really hoping to snag that! If any of you guys come across a ZF5 from a small block 4x4, let me know! Or a god dana 44 solid front. I am sick of the TTB in my trucks front end, with the money I spent on it, and alignment, I could have done a straight front conversion two times over

My truck is still pulling to the left, kinda ticked off with the alignment shop since it had taken them so long to do, and still doesn't feel good, even though they did have to take out one of the eccentrics and put a different one in, and the dummies threw it out the old one on me too, GRRR. But I don't fault them to much, I spent a few hours in my drive way with the angle finder gauge and would set it to spec then take it for a ride then re check and it would be different. Kinda thinking the tires may have something to do with it but no way I'm gonna buy brand new 33's to find out!

Just wondering if them being old, or having weakness around where it mounts to the wheel, or just the fact that 33 x 15s are nice and squishy is why driving it never quite feels good. Might post a topic in the off road forum to see if they have any input or experience with it.

Morning, busy day today.

Andy reminded me I have to wash the truck this morning. Then take the dogs to the groomers. (that's going to be fun for the groomer) My big puppies like to do as they please. Say means walk around to them and give licks all the time to anyone paying attention to them.

Lunch with Tom.

And if I'm up for it move snow out of back path and kennel.

I believe it. This is the time of year to check over the spare tire, jack, and tools. I've seen lots of folks driving around on underinflated spares because they never get checked.

Pothole claimed a tire on my F150 last year.

Thanks for lunch John! It was great getting to talk with you in person. Hope we can do that again before it's time to move at the end of the year.
