I'm glad we're a little south here. No snow at all. Just a little rain. I have to go pick up lumber and get started on these lounge chairs. ........and I don't want to. I also have to build a pedestal for our new front load washing machine. I found no purpose in spending $100 when I can build one for $10.

just turned my head to look out the window and it looks like the snow is starting here but not sticking yet. that reminds me i still haven't set up my choke cable on the truck. Should have made Alan take a look at my carb on the truck cause my fuel mileage is poop.

i'm booooooooooooooooooooooored...stupid snow/rain can't work on finishing the blazer (well I could but the chevy doesn't mean that much to me lol) guess i could tear into the bathroom sink and fix its clog. 2 bottles of draino and it will work great for about a day then clog up again. I hate that bathroom lol.

Wow! It's good to see y'all being so productive...I certainly have NOT been...lol...
That bubblegum pink wiring story was great! I can't tell you how many "custom engineers" I'd just LOVE to meet in the parts store...
Rich, if there's a picture of me out there similar to that one, I don't know about it...or want to...
Wifey got two, not one, TWO new credit cards in the mail today. I'm scared.
We might have gotten an inch of snow, but it's mostly melted away already.
It's Monday...

Cerp remind me again exactly what you have truck wise (forgive me my memory banks are full) I might have a few lift kit pieces/parts laying around the shop.
I know I have a set of front lift coil springs (1/2 ton 4x4) and a few sets of leaf spring packs you could get a extra leaf or two out of.
And probably a drop pitman are around here somewhere, is that what you are looking for?

Let's see, for my truck I need a front axle, a transfer case, a 4x4 Manual trans, a matching rear axle, a couple drive shafts, ......eh, I think that's it. Can you help ME out, Rich? 
Hey, Brian, you could pull the Blazer under the car port and put the hood back on.
I got the pedestal built and under our washer. It's a lot nicer not having to bend in half trying to load the washer. Now the door is about waste high. I also got all the lumber and unloaded it into the garage to keep it dry until I get to it. I think it's going to be a busy week. We should finally have all the parts to finish both engine rebuilds tomorrow morning.
.......'shame they banned human cloning. I could use another me this week. So much for taking it easy.

Cerp I am sure those coil springs are from a 4" lift will work and we can break apart a spring pack and you can add a few in the back pack.

Evening all! Wasn't that some lovely weather to wake up to this morning? NOT!
I am getting so jealous over the stuff that y'all are working on. I'd love to have a project vehicle to play around with (No Ches - I don't need to buy your truck), but I really wouldn't be able to spend much time on it here lately. There are some things I'd like to do on the van in the future. Hmmmmmmmmmm

Track bar replacement time on the Dodge......I need to get the mod so I can run a 3rd gen 03-07 track bar with both ends replaceable, instead of having to get a whole new bar.
