Well, it was time to swap my hubs...
i guess...
I serviced the hubs when I did my axles, but they still wouldn't unlock.

I added a 10" led light bar between my LED fogs in the bumper. I wired it to a relay and an on/off/on switch so I can either turn it on whenever I want or it can be trigger by the high beams...pics tomorrow

Come on Miles, we need pics. I have been thinking about the same thing. I was also considering removing my KCs off my front bar and adding a 30" LED light bar.

Well …
Here I sit all broken hearted, Tried to shift but only started.

Never did that well at rhyming. Truck is still sitting in the driveway.
I think I'll put the charger on it to top off the batteries and I hope
by this next week to be ordering a transmission to have stuffed into it.

My back has been really been ripping into me. Things like bending over
to pick up any tools I drop are !#$%*&!. Just not happening.

That is also part of the reason I have been staying away. Stupid desk
chair is also a back killer.

Hate that for you. If I were closer I'd give you a hand--once I'm over the crud that is. I have a good story about a medicine I got Monday that dang near paralyzed me but will save it for later.

So I'm still trying to figure out how to properly care for a truck/vehicle in general. New to this.

I had the weird urge to check the air filter for the first time today. I was surprised/embarrassed at what I found. Needless to say I wasted no time getting a new filter in there. It was unbelievable the amount of crap that came out just setting it down on the workbench as you can see.
