I'll unhook the power steering and keep the seat locked back to keep crash out of it!

Its the 351M, so I think the 400 is the same. AS for the dents, I'm going to replace the bed and some other parts.

What have I done to my ride recently?

Heh, long story. Kinda...not really but it sounds good...

Well... I was at a red light and I popped it out of gear and rode the breaks to the light (it may sound stupid, but I'm so glad I did it). Light turned green and I pushed my clutch in and it went STRAIGHT to the floor. So, I got it off the road, thinking that all my fluid leaked out. No biggie. So I walked to Wal Mart (FML. It's cold out!) bought brake fluid, walked back to the truck, and it didn't do anything for me. Slave cylinder...gone. Yay... Nothing like a ride in a tow truck. (FML..again..)

To top it all off...there's this girl I've had a thing for since my junior year in high school. I FINALLY talked her into hanging out with me and she was with me when this happened. Awesome. (FML...once more.)

I was in the Ford dealership a few months ago and priced a slave cylinder. $125 brand new. $125 for a piece of plastic, with an aluminum tube and 3 fittings. Stupid. When the guy asked me if I was going to take it that day, I told him "I need it, but I don't need it that bad." (Can I hear it again? Yes? FML)

So that's what I've done to my ride recently. Oh, tonight when this happened, I got pissed off and kicked the bedside. Now there's a big dent in it...

Upgrade I put in my solid flywheel and new clutch in last night with the help of my friend at another friends garage. Went pretty smooth. Started at 3pm and was driving it by 7pm.
