got to work the other day and found a huge box wrapped in yellow tape that weighed like 30 pounds

this was inside:

t4 turbo mount



t4 uppipes



inter cooler pipes



intake elbow





turbo elbow


intake adapter


Misc clamps



the pipes are powder coated the wrong color but that will be an easy enough fix

all these parts are custom one off as of now so if interested you will have to call clay about building another set up

well its been a long weekend of moving trucks and parts

fri... greg came down and we cleaned out the smaller half of the Vernon shop

sat...
greg and i brought his small enclosed trailer down to swagger shop while my dad and a friend of his brought down his truck with a 20ft gooseneck

got my truck out of the shop and onto the goose neck





i know i know FAIL for having my truck on a trailer behind a cummins



back at the Vernon shop we unloaded the engine, trans and other big parts out of Gregs trailer
got the truck off the trailer and moved it inside but not in place



headed back to the swagger shop for the mini excavator and more parts

a pic of the truck laid out in front of the vernon shop

back to the swagger shop we went greg in hi truck me in my dads for more parts
i completely forgot just how many parts were in that shop

got back to the vernon shop around midnight so we parked the trailers and left them
today i went and unloaded my powdercoating oven, sand blaster cabinet, tool boxes and band saw

pulled the truck back out to get the bigger ideas in the shop behind it
while it was out i took some pics of it parked by our company F550 (same height as gregs f250 with 285's)









again i owe greg more than i can ever state
