What I've been up to this weekend so far...

Helped wire up lights on two 2012 King Ranches.


Double wall (glue-filled) shrink wrap on the splice joints and then another one to go over both cord set sheaths. Shouldn't get wet now.


Same deal on a 2013 Lariat:


I got to see the new 2013 fancy trim interior in person, for the first time. I have to say moving the traction control button closer was a good idea since on mine I have to reach over to the far side of the center stack.


All done (one of the KRs was already picked up before I could take the pic).


Played with a few settings on the Mini Maxx again.


Washed the trucks afterwards. Mine needed one anyway.


Hanging out with friends talking about trucks, sounds like my life, I come on here to an internet truck forum and talk about trucks again. Haha.

I agree, they were trying a new design of tires & I guess there wasn't much gription, NASCAR needs more Ford teams

Wowsers...I'm up! I'm up! Nice pig Gerry...

Good morning you fine folks. I hope Roy's adoption hearing went well. I'm a little concerned that we haven't heard from him lately, but he is a busy guy now with a new bride. So I'm sure it's just that.

My son's ankle is at 80% after regular icing and rest. He is walking with a slight limp. I'll tape it tonight and hope for the best at practice.

Good Monday morning all.

@Gerry - I thought you were going to ignore that thread.

@Trent - cool pics, I like the big display in that '13 KR.

@Paul and Tim - The rear leaf spring shackle mount holes were all wallered out on the insides so I had to open the holes up to 7/8" to get rid of the thin area and then turn some bushings.

The first thing I had to do was spread both mounts apart so the shackle would fit without using a pry bar.

Yea, I know, the welds look like poo, but they will work for now. I must have smacked my head on the fenders about a dozen times this weekend.

Gotta get to work.
