The wife told me, there is a blanket of white down at the house, but I'm sure that won't last long.

Damn! I'm jealous Sounds like you have a trip to johnsons in your near future. I was just there on Friday, already broke the piece I bought. lol Which actually reminds me, Dave, think you could do a quick weld on my inside door handle? The factory bracket has completely worn through, which leaves no leverage to pull the handle from the inside. Should be a simple fix with a welder.

Other than that nothing new on my end. I loved the snow this morning! just wish it would have piled up a bit. Damn ND disappointing me so far this winter. lol

Thanks in advance! I'm in no hurry by any means. I just figured it would be the only way to fix it at this point.

Heck its only 150 bucks. Not bad, well worth buying new.

Ok, cool. Just. Let me know when u want to do it. Fridays and Saturdays work the best. I try to do as little as possible on sundays.


On a side note, I'm looking at getting some Bushwacker cutout fender flares for my pickup. But I'm goin to put some for a 87-91 on instead of a 92-96. Thinkin about putting some 35s on it too(if I can sell my 33s)

good call on the earlier model cutouts. The squared fenders look much much better than round.

Plus they actually cut out part of the top of the fender, on the 92 up, just the back and fronts... I also like the screws that are visible that hold them on,on the older ones

Ok Dave, I'll let you know. If I don't go to Fargo this weekend I may have time to get it done, if you do. Should only take a few min to tack it on.

I think your truck really come along way this year. I love it! Its funny; people already want to make their truck like your wheeler, now you have me wanting to make my truck into your daily. lol Them flairs are going to really make a difference in the stance.

Ok. Just keep me posted.

Now with the 5 speed I could get away with bigger tires easy!

Technically NO, but I did put a 1.25 inch spacer under the front springs.

Will do.

So are you going to modify the running boards to put the flairs on? Or just pull them off?
