Yea, true, but I've been dealing with this person for a while when it comes to the van. She came, took it for a drive, I took it to her mechanic another day, he's advised her, she's made me an offer, I am gonna accept it, just waiting for the next step!

Get it under control Miles! Currently filling the diff fluid up in the truck, i had a bit over 2 quarts of fluid, plus the bottle of LS additive. I've gotta go buy another damn quart, off to the parts store I go!

Raquelle Silverhorn should be putting the 6 liter back into the F550 in the morning tomorrow.
Engine is off the stand, it has been swept around, and the flex plate is bolted on.

Way to go, Pete!
My truck is back on all four wheels. Found an extra quart of gear oil behind some coolant so no trip to the parts store was needed.
My drive shaft would hardly move back and forth, I could not pull it or push it to bolt it back to the rear yoke at all! I lubed it, hit it with a dead blow hammer, lubed it some more and it started working properly. Woohoo.
