Well gang,
salvage yards yielded me a few more center consoles for the crew cab build. One of them was from a Ranger Edge, which ended up having a sub woofer in it. I think this may end up in the rear seat area as a flow thru center console. Now I just need to find another mid 80's-2000's black center console and I will have a good set to work with.
Then I came home, changed the oil in the SD for tomorrows trip to Lake Compounce. After I changed the oil I deceided to change the sway bar bushings. WOW.... they were way worn. After taking the truck for a ride I have solved my front suspension noises completely. Wish I had changed them years ago. Money well spent.

Well it's that time again. Monday morning. Time to be disgusted by your fellow employees "good morning" bs. Every time some body give me a "good morning" I simply reply with, morning. What the f is so good a out it, lol, it's Monday.
On the other hand Monday is my second favorite day of the week. After all, Mondays are the fastest days of the week.
Ohh well, enough ranting. Have a "good" Monday.

Hey all! Hope everyone is doing well. Been busy here, trying to get the yard cleaned up.
On a related note, I seriously dislike yard work.

Yeah. I don't like yard work either. Spent all day yesterday chasing vegies from the local sources and planting our garden. I planned on cutting the lawn today, but the weather is supposed to be better for working outside.

Have fun with that, Clint!
Making progress here still. Seems as though this yard hasn't been kept up with all that well over the years. Lots of overgrowth, that I've been chopping away an hour or two a night.
Landlord won't do it, and even though it's not ours I'd rather not have it look like crap.
