To Do lists : Let's see what you got

Ok guys ... lets have some fun and forget the fuel prices for a while. I was thinkging of all the stuff I have to do to my truck that I have sitting ready to do but no time to do it and made a list. Let's see what everyone has on their lists. This is stuff you have sitting there ready to do but no time, not a wish list.

1. Replace nasty carpet with new
2. Install sound deadner on floor, doors, roof, & cab back
3. Install 6.0L cooler
4. Install electric fuel pump system and regulator
5. U-joints are clunking
6. Install new cab bushings
7. Replace all bushing in front end

Man .. I need a crew and some drinks.

What do all you have?

Everything ...

Did the outside last and this year. Also did the 6637, HUGH improvement and fuel pump then bb mod.

Every time I get enough money saved up for down pipes and exhaust mods something happens. Last month my dog 16 years old got sick and rushed her to vet and two x-rays later it cost me $375.00 to kill my best friend. Good grief ...

Oh, I'm working on Bio-Diesel. Small quantity's for now just to get a feel for it and get the procedure down, kitchen recipe. I want to use my old turkey fryer with propane for heat in the future for slightly larger batches. If I can get a 5% mix I'll be happy for now.

Seal the new cargo light with caulk. The last one rotted from leaks. Got the caulking
Seal the lights on the cab. They leak too. Thought it was the wind shield. The cab smells like rotten socks after a good rain.
Make a exhaust hanger. The cat delete did not come with one so the exhaust kind of hangs off the turbo right now. got the steel and mig welder.
Fix the boost leaks in the intake plenum's. Got the sealant for that about five months ago.
Fix the door hinges before I loose a door or passenger.
Get rid of the K@N and install the 6637 i got a few weeks ago.
See whats up with the cruise control that stopped working a long time ago. have a steering wheel puller.
And I have coolant leaks at the thermostat.

O yea, got a fuel filter a week ago but the cap on the old one wont come off because I over tightened it because of leaks.

Boy these trucks leak like a old Harley. Want to see a list for the two old Harley's I got?!?!

Wow, some of you have some major mods on your to-do lists.

My current to do's (generally in order of importance):
-wash/wax job, powerwash underneath
-put the F-250 badge on the different tailgate I just got
-find or order a bed mat
-find an OEM chrome rear bumper
-new tires on the rear
-relocate my trailer plugin after the new bumper
-polish the one headlight that's slightly yellow-the other must have been replaced sometime.
-one-touch down driver's window like I did in my 95 F-150
-find another remote for keyless entry as one of my two is dead
-pack front wheel bearings
-check rear brakes

Sometime in the near future:
-take to the body shop and fix a few minor dings from the PO
-find a better tailgate (the one I just got still isn't perfect)
-chip and guages
-new rear hubcaps (they're still there, but the chrome's flaking off)
