So I started cleaning my sled Saturday and may have gotten a little carried away.





Actually, I have an exhaust leak in one of the bellows.

It looks that way. Are you using q-tips for cleaning the small tight spaces?

Good morning fellas!

We made it through Monday! I think he uses the Q-tips to plug his ears so he can't hear his wife call for him.

Yes. The one on the left is broke all the way around. And the donuts are almost shot too.

Good evening guys! Busy evening around here for me. Swapped front axles on the 7.3 frame and then pulled it outside and cleaned it with a pressure washer. Have to get it jacked up next so I can clean the bottom of the frame better. Then time to paint.

We had some a while back but a good heavy downpour to get the sand and residual off would be ok. Just not this weekend.
