Alright Guys so I got the new B&W Turnover ball gooseneck hitch a couple days ago, just wanted to show you guys pics of the new hitch lol. When I finally get home I will throw pics up of the install, and pics of the turbo install, flywheel work, and new bumpers along with the new wire job for the lights in the front and rear, Im gonna run new wire for all of it cause it looks like crap haha. This thread will be like Johnboggs with his parking the truck, im doing the same.

 

Boy that is a real mans hitch! They even put a tin of cope right in with it!

 

Damn right lol. I need some of that here in iraq, we have plastic cans, they put something else to make sure it dont go bad in the plastic cans, no cardboard cans and tin lids.

 

Somebody need to throw a log in a foodsaver bag and float it over to you

 

Nobody ever does, most forget that im here, or forget to send it after they buy it and chew it all haha.

 

Take them on a guilt trip!

 

i do haha.

 

Maybe a bump to first class would help!

 

My boss loves his B&W hitch.

I wish i could afford one...

 

Well I know a guy selling them for 295 bucks. I got mine for that lol.

 

good to see you went with the B&W hitch after all aune. make sure whomever is the caretaker of the hitch while your away hasn't lost the receipt and copies it over to regular paper if its not already and files it away. that way if you have another incident like you did with your 20 year old gooser you can still get a replacement.

love lifetime warranties.

 

I already did that. I aint going through that crap again, turns out when my dad hooked up, he put 6000 lbs on the tougue and after 20 years that was too much for it to handle. Its rated to 7500 lbs so idk why it happened lol. But Yeah I intend to have it all filed away for warrenty purposes in my 84's folder, i put the reciepts for EVERYTHING in that damned thing.

 

haha well 20 years is a long time. especially in montana. there's some pretty extreme winters up there i imagine. iv'e been through montana once during june. beautiful place thats for sure.

 

Damn beautiful place. I think god really blessed this place. There aint another state in the union like it. 20 years of hard service on this truck, still looks great, runs like new now with the rebuild. They did the whole shebang on this thing, the PO spent $7k on the rebuild and all the parts for it.

 

Got new BFG All Terrains for 350 bucks off ebay:


Guys I got my new Pipes today for the turbo:


Just thought I would update you on whats going on lol. The turbo is gonna get put on by Rocky Mountain Diesel in Missoula before I get home. Also going to have the front main seal fixed, radiator flushed and filled with SCA charged coolant and im gonna use my 3" exhaust from my N/A setup for now, I plan to throw on a 3.5" exhaust in the future. Or do you think 3" is enough flow for the turbo being its the older non-wastegated model.
