Got the box pulled off on Wednesday. Going to have to replace one rear shock mount. I think I am going to do both at the same time. Other than that I was surprised how clean the back half of the frame is.

The guy from the wreckers bought 3 trucks from a fellow who has had the town tell him he needs to clean up his property. One of them is one I would have loved to get my hands on. He told me we can probably work something out.........

I seem to function best on 5 to 6 hrs. I just don't like getting up.

Chris, I made myself a wooden dolly, to put my cab on. Going to try and bring it home next week. I'm going to grab the truck that I'm taking the drivetrain out of tomorrow, so I have to get that pulled out, and the rest of the truck to scrap first.

A dolly would be perfect. Sure make things a bunch easier. I would have one but I don't think it would move too well on the terrain I have to work on.

Well time to get ready for work. Have yourselves a great Friday evening.
