Yeah I know. Well maybe I should put the chip in for a quick test drive when I get it. Of course after the 16th I will be tearing parts off so then it won't be driveable so that will make it a little easier.................right?

Yeah but I have been waiting for years to do all this to my truck so another few weeks shouldn't hurt too bad other then the fact that the parts are sitting here now!

Sounds like a good plan Dale! Should we start scheduling the GTG now to do the work on your truck or do we need to wait?

Afternoon guys!

Well the tire search went ok. I found some Goodyears with decent tread for $24.00/tire. I had them put them on as long as I was there too. I made an appt. to get the alignment done too, but that did not go so well. I have a bad inner tie rod (LF) and need to fix that before I can get the alignment. UUUGGGGHHHH! Not a good month. Ok so does anyone have a trick to get the inner tie rod off. I don't have any crows foot wrenches. I think I can rent a removal tool from a auto parts store.
