I hope that weather stays! Will start buying parts on the 15th, so they will be waiting for me when I get back.

 

went to the swap meet Sat. I found a few dust collectors, but the thing I am most proud of is Del found a Cruise Control for my truck! I am anxious to put that in!

 

Totally forgot that was last weekend! Can't catch them all I suppose

I ended up cutting the bolts from my rear hitch to get it off so I could install the new tube bumpers. Took me much longer than I thought AND it knicked my thumb with the angle grinder so I'm missing some meat from my finger now. Bumper looks good though! lol

 

Was going to move POJ yesterday after airing up a couple of low tires, but when I started it up it sprayed gas from a fuel hose where the darn rat had chewed a pin hole. I even had left the hood open. I didn't have time to fix that before we had to leave.

 

hauled a dozen tires from the front of my house to the back tire shed (awesome brother in law works at a tire place so i accumulate more than i can burn off) and got me a new tailgate for the 66 all i gotta do is get some hardware on the 66 to install but alas i must drill out some twisted off bolts for that project

 

Sounds like you guys are taking advantage of the warm weather!

 

its been a great winter so far!

 

Glad to hear that! I've been watching the weather. It's up in the 80's today, so it'll still be a shock going back, but at least spring is right around the corner!

 

New drivewers mirror- new tires all the way around-- new windsheild- new upper and lower ball joints-- new brake-- new alignment- new rotors- new battery- and the error was cleared on the CEL :-) $4,600 :-) and all on the work truck so I didn't pay a dime :-)

 

Holy crap Chad! That's a big bill for those repairs!

 

Put new mirrors on the superduty.

 

Picked up a reman distributor and a new Accel super coil yesterday for My '59

 

Well gents, big list of parts for the 'ol girl.
S366 .91AR twin scroll snail, Upgraded billet wheel for said snail, 360* thrust bearing upgrade for said snail. So with just that, I'm looking at what I would like to generously call a stage 3, even though it's more like 2.5 because there isn't a wastegate yet.

Also bought a 6.0 IC, but still need the boots and pipes, which I might have to weld up the pipes.. Also ordered parts for a water pump upgrade with built in coolant filter, and parts for a dual tensioner upgrade as well.

Just the start of the tip of the iceberg, more parts will follow in the next few days!

This better be one happy 7.3 when I get done with her!

 

Your post has confirmed the fact that I don't know anything about diesels, thanks for that! lol

 

What he wrote Justin is he got a new set of guts for a turbocharger and a 6.0 liter intercooler to put on his truck. Clear as mud right?
