Edit: Heather got so excited last night when I told her what was going on, lol.

Aaron, tomorrow I'll get the up pipes, pedestal and drain plate and get them ready to send to you. Also tomorrow I'll switch wheels on the two trucks and get the air bags.


Today we did the final run to the salvation army and auction place with the last of the stuff. DONE DONE DONE, It doesn't really look like there could be much in the trailer but the one I took a picture of on the inside has a ledge on the side. I put boards across making shelfs and stacked stuff to the ceiling. When the mule hauled it several years ago I knew I had a load on. That thing was very, very heavy!!

Sounds good Kevin, thanks.


On a side note, I asked Gearhead, Tony and Powerstruck for reburns. Also ordered the headlights .

The plan as of now, is to put my motor/trans and interior into the Mare. Oh along with a fresh painted frame I have at the hillbillys and a D60 install! None of the transformation will start until spring at the earliest, but the ideas have already been swirling. It sickens me that this had to happen to our resident Santa, but rest assured, I'll take good care of her!

haha it must be the weekend for buying.... because I just heard last night around 6 that the sellers accepted my offer! Assuming inspection goes well tomorrow night I will be the owner of my own 2 acres with a 3 car garage come September 18th!

Which means I more than likely won't be able to make this... I could be insane and try to prep for moving AND make a 16 hour weekend trip, but more than likely not. lol
Sorry all! I know Glenn will be taken care of.

Doing head studs and valve springs alone will take longer than an engine swap takes.. since there is a time crunch and what I'm reading is a hell of a lot of work in that amount of time. You would save a lot of time swapping engines and doing any new part installs on the engine before installing it in the truck.

Folowing is the answer I received today.

"Brian,

The studs can be reused as long as they haven’t been over torqued or damaged in some way.
