Impulse buy. I don't even have 220 in my house yet. My GC friend who woke me before 7 one Saturday morning to help with a concrete pour owes me one though. I told him before spring, when I bought a cheap arc welder a month or so ago. Then I showed him the new machine and said "think we can bump that timeframe?"

Never would have happened so soon but at my work Christmas party they pulled my name out of a hat and I won the exact purchase price. Thought I'd put it towards bills but technically a tig welder can make me some scratch, so that was my first CL search lol. It's still kind of surreal. I've seen people win that money for like 10 years. Always thought it was rigged.

A new rear fuel tank and fuel pump for my truck, plus floormats. I hooked my buddy up with a 351W for his '92 F-150 engine swap. It's been a good christmas.

Yup.



I'm looking to get it a little lower, tired of climbing to get into it and work on it.

Here's a fitment shot of 36s I bought a while ago and never installed.



Thinking with the smaller narrower wheels/tires I can lower it about 4". Going with tires like theses,except 36s, 38s in the pic.
