Alex Right now the E4od is still in the truck. Plantaries and torque converter shot. 2k for a rebuild. It will be either a zf5 or a T 18/19. The yard we got yours from has an 89 but it is a 4x4. I am going to scout Johnson`s next week. When I get ready to do it. We will be busy have to pull pedals, maybe steering column dash cluster. I need to get the Mazda B2600 I picked up cheap (300) on the road first.

Same to you!!
I got the new u joints in on the truck yesterday after work so I would not have to mess with it today. Not planning on doing much today but hanging out around the pool and BBQ.

Alex !! I need to get busy on the 79 but I get side tracked.
Hugh that looks nice!!
The overhead console, new rear speakers and 02 sensor came in yesterday for the dodge. I won't install them till Saturday morning. The new glass is looking good and nice to have a rear view mirror!
We bought some fireworks to shoot off at home. We did a sparkler shower first, little man was good until it started popping then he lost his cool and was screaming to get back in the house. I took him back in and he fell asleep in about 5 minutes.

From the sound of it my wife has sleep apnea worse than I do, one reason she is always tired.
I got the new map light console installed on the Dodge. I also installed the 2 new rear speakers since the ones for the rear were removed by someone. The stereo sounds so much better now. I replaced the center armrest / console and put my dash cover on. It's coming along,

The funniest part is going to be watching her try to adjust to sleeping with the mask on. I say it took me about 3 weeks or so and it still bothers me every now and then.
I may have to go check out that 99 Ram.
Got the rear speakers in and tested the system and the right front speaker went out, It was factory so I went ahead and ordered new speakers for the front and that should finish off the sound system.
Mowed some grass and then me and little man went swimming.
