well on my way home tonight my buddy calls me and says iam broke down and need me to tow him home. well iam thinking the truck needs the u-joints sitting in the seat real bad but what the hell its something to do right. so i show up at the place of breakage. with my 82 f-150 to hook up my buddys 88 f-250 4x4 to get him home. well regardlees all we had was a 4 1/2 foot log chain i got him to his drive way. now we jus got a decent snow with a little ice left over from the last "winter rain". not bad right? yea well it was a little worse thatn i thought. now my buddy had a pretty steep grade drive way not too long but steep. so i attempt it in 2wd well that was an absolute no go. so luckly i still had the hubs locked in from the parking lot i had to pull him out of, and instead of doing the normal thing like putting it in 4 low i grab for 4 HI put the ole' beast in 1st and go at it. well after about 2-3min of 5grand the ole' beast pulled my buddys heavy *** truck up and into the driveway. so needless to say i was pretty proud of the ole' 82. after my buddy tells me that he could hear all 8 cylinders fireing through my duals i of course asked to push his truck back down the hill to do it again. then thought hold on i just put a hell of a beating on all my u-joints. i said lets do it again after i have my new u-joints in. so needless to say it was an interesting end to a night. but would have been better if i would have had the chick i just went on a date with in the truck so yea thats my .02 on this lovely febuary night.

 

all i got to say is raise hell man

 

the "quite a sight" would be a U joint going south at a time like that. How good are the brakes?

 

well the ole beast came to an end today while comming home at luch time to grag the truck due to a *** load of snow we got today my car ended up barreling through 2' of snow that some dude pushed into the already covered street nearly missing a school bus then diving into a water meter check unit (recessed into the ground about 9" the ole car came to a very stuck stop in the driveway (bald tires). so i chained it up to the ole 82 and began to pull. and guess what happend next. after the beating my u-joints took the other night they gave out. so after a couple of hours of getting my truck up the drive way and shoveling snow i had my buddy push my car into the parking spot with an ole bald 38 between his truck and my car. i decided to take tomarrow off of work to fix the ole 82 and just relax because i had too much for today.
