Nice trailers...be safe.

 

What are you towing? Idaho jumbo potato peelers?
By the way your ex is looking fantastic congrats!

 

The biggest and the baddest Jumbo Potato Peelers! Everyone needs one of these!

They are actually Cable Transport Trailers. Utilities use them to hold, pay in, or pay out wire and conduit. That white one has a tension/rewind system on it for the big utility jobs. Gotta keep the power companies equipped!

Thank you!! I'm super happy with everything I've learned to do with it.

 

Badges

 

[QUOTE=nmclella;15423993]
do you have an 03 motor? Sounds great at idle, but i think it would be too loud or done inside.

 

Just chose the standard Powerstroke badges, don't have any part numbers sorry! Just won an auction on Ebay... Think I got them for ~25 USD.

Nope, an 04. Doesn't have that REALLY big whistle that the 03 turbos put out. It really isn't that bad unless you get on it, and I notice no difference in the cab when just cruising. I can hear the growl when hammering it in the cab though.

 

Tow mirrors! I'm sure they are off an 03 just to please LL. Give HarleyJCS a rep when you see him for trading my paddles for his tow mirrors. A bit of sanding, paint on the arms, and back to black on the plastic.

 

Is that an XLT? I don't think I have seen strait moldings before.

 

Yes xlt. We3zs has similar moulding. I like the clean simple look of it.

 

I used the Ex today as a shade tree...lol. I pulled it in the back yard to keep the sun off of me while I repaired, cleaned, and checked the charge on the A/C condensing unit. Mama's happy so life is good.

 

Really? that's what my old '04 looked like before i removed the cladding.

 

Hey DU,

Just curious where you're at? It looks a LOT like where I'm at in WA.

 

Another day Excursionless Shop says it should be done in the morning some time though...

 

Last weekend upper/lower ball joints, yesterday rear hatch glass urethane, tomorrow? finish c/b install?

 

Getting my "pick up the Excursion" pants ready in case I get a call that my truck is finished today... In the mean time I'll just wear these "F**k... now that I'm driving my wifes car I hear a bad engine noise she just thought was gravel." pants. She's off tomorrow so looks like we're going to be taking on another car payment Don't think this thing is going to last much longer.
