Morning everyone. I hope your days is going better than mine.

Truck is being parked until I can get the money to replace the clutch. It has gotten to the point of being worried about getting stranded. The minion won't care much for the walk to and from school but she will get used to it.

nothing bad since the temps are dropping to reasonable levels. It's a little over 1/2 mile.

Goodmorning guys,

Happy Hump Day!

Monday was a bad day for me. Oreo accidentally scratched my eyeball playing around, I damaged my work truck while backing uphill around a blind corner/burm, & then Kaedons school nurse & principal called me. GRR!
Yesterday went better though. Work went well & the mechanic somewhat fixed my truck, plus we got to go home early due to too much wind.
On that note, I better get ready to leave for work. The wind is worse this morning!

Have a happy & safe Windy Wednesday!

Morning everyone. I hope you are all having a great day so far.

I was a little off on my distance estimation. It is 1.1 miles from door to door to walk my minion to school. It really sucks first thing in the AM. I may have to put off some of the extra stuff that can be done with the trans installed and stick to the stuff it has to be out to complete such as the clutch kit, rear main seal, and the speedo drive gear. The rest like the u joints, shifter equalizer and pedal bushings can be done anytime. They are not in horrible shape but I was wanting to do it while I had it apart.

Morning Greg. That is quite a walk. When are you planning to pull the trans? Or, did you already get it out?

no point in pulling it before I can afford the clutch. for now it is still movable but not drivable if that makes sense.

It shouldn't be to bad. Dave is going to let me borrow his trans jack. That should make it easier and safer to slide it out of there.
