Aaron my condolences funerals are for getting the emotion out so you can move on.

It seems a few faces have showed up while I was away. 10 days hiking into the woods building outhouses for the parks. We camped in the parking lot. No cell reception just bugs and Ravens.



The truck did OK but I need to find the exhaust leak. I think the low boost numbers are because I am loosing drive pressure. Brakes were great new lines and ABS valve firmly rusted into a appears to be working position.

It's good to be home. I have 3 days to swap the box and look for the exhaust leak then we are off again for 2.5 weeks!

Glad she's running good!

Jarrett it was the craps! And don't think anything different.

Just about got the box swap done. Hooking up the filler necks wishing I had time to mod the vents.

Not excited about the body work it is major ****. I hope I get to do work for the guy some day. I'll return the favor with a smile.

Well here it is the box is on the filler necks are hooked up and I have one more tail light to wire up.



The match isn't so good. I am going to try to get the rest of the paint and paint the rest to match.

I would rather give my money to a member here for the body work aka Kevin....

Escape vehicle is the powerstroke. Let's hope the groomsmen are nice to her.

Where is that at?

Congrats Jarrett!

Sorry for your loss Aaron. It's hard to lose someone you are that close too. Hardest loss I've had so far was my step-mom.
