i still got a job, and a computer,..........and sort of have a wife for the time being. we're separating. chances are this time next week i'll be living in my car. life sucks, it sucks harder when you're a *******. long story short, wife's crazy switch flipped out of nowhere, arguing happened. she literally asked me to slap her and like a drunken fool i did. i had her call the cops, i spent a few days in county. my life has finally hit rock bottom.

we really do need time apart so she can see what she wants in life. problem is i know my wife and i know how it's going to go down. she's going to go completely off the deep end with the drinking because she's going to see this time as party time since i won't be here to keep her in check. it's really sad that this is the way it's gotta go, but it is what it is. white trash problems. ****ty part is my kids are going to have to deal with all of this, and it's not going to be an easy path to walk down.

Last night kinda sucked...... in the 77 I popped something in the front (assume it's a hub) and the tranny was slipping bad, especially in second, first did okay but with my gearing cant stay in first for long, hit second and lost lot's of momentum went to third and it pulled just as hard, started bogging and went to pull it back to second and it started slipping again.

It was the last race of the season, so it'll be receiving a new tranny this winter. Prolly due for one since dad's owned the truck since 1990 and it has never been out of the truck, and He knew the guy he bought it from and he never had it out, so it's stock from 77 except a transgo shift kit and stall convertor, not to mention it pisses fluid out the side of it where it was cracked from the front drive shaft coming out of it. It will also be receiving some drive flange's im tired of loosing hub's, 4 time's this year i believe may have been more.

But it was not done there, Dad went to and him and my little sister drove the jeep, and on dad's second pass it lost the front driver side tire, still attached was the rotor, axle shaft and all, It broke the the flange on the axle that hold's the lower ball joint so gotta go back this morning and get it sometime.

That was funny! I hope the Guy in the Cummins beat the crap out of the Guy in the Chevy afterwards for being an idiot!
I can Imagine the jive talk, that led to that!

Should make a difference, expecially after I hook the 4 inch 6.0L exhaust kit to it.
